Basic Bow Hold on the Cello (Battle Against the Amoeba Hand!)

Jamie Fiste, Professor of Cello at Central Michigan University, provides ideas for teaching a basic bow hold on the cello. www.celloprofessor.com
The crumpled paper idea was taken from Susan Kempter's book 'How Muscles Learn"

I saw this video a few years ago when I was starting to play the cello and I am 61 now. Your themes are great! 10:25 Amoeba Hand!

Thank you! Glad my video is helpful!

Omg, I was learning cello for 10 years and no one explained Star Trek docking (broccoli knife grip, the P sign etc) to me this clearly! Thank you Professor!

Had never seen the paper scrunching activity before-great!

When the video is so underrated the comments section is not a mess
