Subject: RE: left -handed fiddle pupil
Hmmm. I think bowing requires more precise movements, particularly in the wrist. I guess that goes to show everyone is a bit different.

I'm barely more than a beginner, but I think one of the reasons I didn't have any trouble at all picking up bowing because I just thought small from the very beginning. My [former] instructor was forever perplexed that I could get complex bowing stuff right off the bat but am forever frustrated about my lefthand not going where it's supposed to.

Maybe *I* should try a leftie fiddle!
