Yes, good ideas there. Some of those things I do unconsciously, and some are new to me. I like that she has concern for the causes of muscular stress and tells students not to stretch to what they can’t really reach.

I find myself having a lot of tension and feeling like my technique is making it harder for me. I’ve been planning to talk to my teacher about it, but we’re working on prep for my jury so I have put it away until that’s done….
