Child With “Mirror Movements” Trying to Play Violin-Help?
This question is for those familiar with mirror movements.
My daughter is 10, and has mirror movements with her hands- basically from birth. We aren’t sure yet of the cause.
Today when she was practicing the violin, I noticed that when she uses her left fingers on the strings her right fingers lift from the bow. Anyone know if this will cause a problem for her learning to play, or how to stop the movements in this situation? I know she can stop it if she focuses on tensing the muscles in the mirroring hand, but with violin it is best not to have a death grip on the bow.
She doesn’t have a violin instructor. There isn’t one in my rural community. I am teaching her myself for now, using videos and such.
