Very helpful as a new player. My hands are feeling very worn out after playing. I will certainly be doing these exercises before playing the violin and the viola. Thanks.

I can’t thank you enough for making this video. The first exercise released a lot of tension I didn’t know I had. I noticed that too much tension in the neck, arms and hands significantly impacts my ability to do the marshmallow touch you talk about. As the body goes, so the fingers flow. Hugs and you warmed my heart! TY!! 🎻
