Great bowing tips Heather. I notice when I am at the tip I lose control of my little pinky finger which comes off the bow until I up bow and it rejoins the bow location. This may be what you stated that my muscle memory for bowing may not be where it needs to be and use the wall exercise you mentioned.

Why is the audio so wildly out of synch with the video? Would have liked to have watched this.
