Well, I am 8 years too late but I would like to thank you for taking the time to make this tutorial. There is something very relaxed and kind about your speaking too which made me more patient to learn the exercises so thanks love!
Thank you. 52 years old and just began playing the violin after years of piano. One week in and struggling with the bow bouncing as it gets further and further from the frog. Hope these exercises will help. Once again, thank you. Here I go again. :)
I thought about Heifetz' suggestion to take long bow strokes to warm up. I did this yesterday and realized how valuable this practice is. Today I decided to work on string changes. When I came to your lesson I realized this was a divine appointment. I like it. Will review your other material.
Great exercise! I like using the metronome to keep my bowing on track. Congratulations on completing your Masters! You are a an excellent violist and teacher! Thank you, and wishing you happiness and success with your musical career!
Wow, I just stumbled onto this video, and realize this video was posted over 5 years ago, but I have to say your bow warm up routine seems to be exactly what I need right now. As a self taught adult that plays winds and other instruments, and now rapidly progressing into advanced beginner territory on violin, I expect this bow warm up will help me tremendously. Thank You!
Ships Ahoy I’m so glad! Thank you for being here! Check out Leopold Auer’s Method Books for Violin (Book 1) they’re on amazon...and will be excellent to work with for the bow...🎻🎶✨
Violin Viola Masterclass - Thanks for the tip👍. I’ll look for the book and buy it. Right now I’m doing the Rubank first etude album, some assorted beginner solos, concertinos, etc. luckily, I read treble clef well. Other clefs, help! In the process of trying to command all scales in first position, branching out with some minor scales and flat scales moving towards the less easy and trying to branch out into third on the easy scales. Even trying to improve technique with some simple fiddle tunes, lol. The bowing is so much a part of violin, it deserves as much attention as the rest. Thanks again!😎👨🏻
I chose the violin even though the viola sounds so nice and deep, mainly because I think the music scores are hard to find unless it is an accompaniment. Is there a good source for the sheet music for viola?

You teach so well with lots of bowing Positions demonstrations. I like very much your G string sound. Obviously the other strings, too. I would love to buy a Violin such as yours. Can I reveal a Wish ? In my next Life, I will marry a Girl Violinist. She will play the Violin and I will do the cooking.
Hi. My teacher has told me, “more pressure at the tip and less at the frog.” To practice the feel for this, you can slightly lift your first finger when near the frog and slightly lift your 2nd, 3rd, and pinky fingers when you are near the tip. Don’t play like this, it’s just to get a feel for the more pressure vs less pressure.
Hi, I just read your comment and I am a violin/viola teacher....I usually ask my students to attach the shoulder rest to the widest part (at the back ) of the instrument from both sides, with the wider part of it against the chin rest :)
Oh my god, do I need this. I've been teaching myself (which, heh. Yeah) for a little over two months now and I am still hitting strings. Thank you. Thank you SO much! 💛 Ohh by the way, my E string often sounds really bad! Like.. piercing and wobbly? Does that make sense? I am probably bowing it wrong, but it's only the E string sounding really bad. Do you have any idea of what that could be? I realise it's probably impossible to determine from a comment, but i thought it might be worth asking 😅 i will try that triangle thing though. I'm sure that will help. 😊
These are some great practice tips! Thanks!
I been playing for 35 days and this video I know will help me tremendously thanks!
I had never watched a video with such a clear explanation as this video. Excellent explanation and visualization.

I am a beginner. Started 4 weeks ago.
Tell some exercise to enable me to bow slowly without screeching. Thanks.

I think there is a wolf tone in your viola. is it true !?
looks like a blonde amy adams. great video
Awesome lesson! And I want this girl to read me a bed time story
what is the best position for the shoulder rest? Jane
Hi, I just read your comment and I am a violin/viola teacher....I usually ask my students to attach the shoulder rest to the widest part (at the back ) of the instrument from both sides, with the wider part of it against the chin rest :)
Im not i dont think i understand fully how you are preparing your arm going down, i see and understand bowing up but i can't tell when you move down?
Thank you!

Like I'm dreaming fool. On Gee.
Thanks.
Is it me or she was touching other strings while crossing and making scratchy sound with the bow or not using the full length?
Do you teach online? Email please?

Noone needs a metronome!! This is the 21st century, just download an app!!
