I made this video to share my cello teacher's experience with several issues many adult cello students have to overcome. We often think that experiencing pain is a part of cellist's life. "No pain, no gain" becomes a motto of many cellists which leads to unnecessary pain, struggle to keep practicing and, ultimately, having to quite playing cello altogether. I recorded this cello lesson to share my observations and some advices how to deal with, and possibly prevent pain in the right shoulder, neck, back and right hand thumb. I hope that will help cello students, kids and adults, to develop mindful approach to posture and the way they use their bodies to enjoy playing cello for years to come.
