Violin/Viola Performance Clinic- Bowing Technique

Class time will consist of explanation of various exercises, and then a group application of each exercise. 

Students may also engage in group discussion about difficulties, personal goals, and ideas about how their sound, and how they'd like to improve it. 

Students will take turns in class applying the exercises and discussing as a group, what worked, what didn't and what they noticed as they performed each exercise. 

Students will also engage in basic mindfulness to be aware of their body movements, and how they influence their sound and technique. 

There will be brief descriptions of how and why each exercise works, and what part of bowing technique it targets. 

Students will need to have their violin and bow ready to work at the beginning of the class.
