Let your right hand dangle out in front of you, as if limp or lifeless. There. You have your perfect violin bow hold.
I’m serious. Simply insert the bow from underneath and you’ll likely be on your way to an excellent, professional caliber and fluid bow hand tailored to your own anatomy. That, in contrast to the tortured looking death grip many violinists cultivate over years.
The most important thing I can teach you in your violin lesson is to pay more and more attention to your own body. As your ability to do that increases, you’ll need a teacher less and less.
Your Transformation: Pay attention; your body already knows the truth.
