Thanks for the video. I have heard several violin teachers take a different aproach about the left hand base Joint and im wondering which way is correct and why. I rest my violin on my base Joint of my index finger like you describing. But some say that the crease/line inbetween the Joint and the index finger should be parrellel with the E string. This raises the entire left hand and doesn't allow the violin to rest any where. Im wondering why this method is sometimes prefered
Hi there! Perhaps it could tension in some part of the hand that is prevent you to move your wrist forward. A mirror would help, try to imagine that the left wrist and forearm move slightly forward. That may help with the straight wrist.

I actually have the opposite problem. I tend to slightly bend my wrist away from the violin. Any advice? Practice in front of a mirror maybe?
