Learn Piano Hand Positioning
The best thing to do to learn piano hand positioning is to see. I've made a little one minute clip of how to position your hands to play the piano.
Basic Points:
~ Pretend that you are holding a
bubble
in your hand that you don't want to break.
~ Your fingers should be
loose
- not tense.
~ Playing on the
tips
of your fingers.
~Your
thumbs
should be touching the keys.
~ Your
wrists
should not be touching the ledge of the piano.
~ keep your arms and shoulders
relaxed
.
~
Sit on the edge
of the piano bench or chair.
It's important to
learn
hand positioning
properly from the beginning
. Habits can be hard to break so start with a good foundation and good habits. It will make life easier in the end.
