The Hand Position Sheet details the correct Posture for maximizing your playing using MATCHED GRIP. The Warm Up Exercises are the ones that you will be expected to have COMPLETLY memorized by the first day of band camp in August. Always practice the exercises with a metronome, and realize that each exercise targets a specific problem area in controling your "CHOPS". Make sure that you can play ALL of the exercises SLOWLY & CORRECTLY with control, HANDS & FEET, marking time, and using proper sticking before you start cranking up the metronome speed.
