I wanted to make desserts for Christmas and share it with my friends and family.
For years in piano I had bad habits; my biggest problem was that I didn't keep my wrists up and lift my fingersWhile this is a pretty typical thing for kids (as a teacher I had to remind them every week), my habits carried over longer because of my old pianoIt was from around the turn of the century and the action was totally shot; I didn't have to apply any real pressure to the keys to get them to playI got over it quickly when I switched to a Steinway, but it's a great reminder that the quality of the piano does count! The feel of the keyboard is so importantNow I'm so picky I don't think I have any bad habitsthe only thing I can think of is that I sometimes tuck one leg underneath me when I get stiffNot exactly ideal posture :) As a violist I probably had the world record for bad habitsMy grip on the bow was totally wrong, I always bowed over the fingerboard, I slouched, and for years I tucked in the wrist holding up the viola when I got tiredI relied too much on fine tuners and would fake when the orchestra was supposed to tuneWhen I was little I would also regularly fake during orchestra rehearsalsSo did the woman next to me- once she kept bowing silently after the orchestra had finished and got caughtAt least I was more convincing! Can you tell I hated viola? I quit almost ten years ago.
