Hello!I'm a cellist and so happy are starting the best instrument ever. one thing that I am noticing is that you're really tense in the shoulders. before starting every practice session, be sure to shake your arms and relax, your shoulders are kind of up in the air, they should just be staying down. your posture is amazing keep up the good work and the pain will go away.

Thanks Sean! Thank you so much for the encouragement and tip - I definitely think I’m not very relaxed yet! I’ll try shaking it out and bringing my shoulders down before I practice! It really is a lovely instrument to learn and play!

I'm so happy for you that you got a cello! I hope you have such a good time learning the cello! I play the hammered dulcimer, but about a year and a half ago, I got really into the idea of learning the lever harp. I got one, but I haven't really gotten far with it. I'm thinking I might get a teacher this year and get serious about it. Good luck!

Thank you so much! I have to admit my ignorance and say I had to Google what a hammered dulcimer is. It looks very cool and a harp is the other instrument I've always thought was amazing!

Heya! Violinist here, but my best friend plays cello, so I know somewhat about this. Like madie suggested, I would highly recommend a rock stop, and maybe check your rosin? It looks like dark rosin (dark oak colored), but since I'm not sure if the rosin came with the cello, I can't tell completely. If it's a lighter colored rosin, that's for more violins and maybe violas, and will make your tone a bit strange.

hey im a cello player, im so happy you picked up cello! Iv got a couple tips too! one is i noticed you pick up the cello to adjust the height I would spend some time looking up a rock stop. its a little circle or square that helps keep the cello in place on slippery floors. And one one thing else and everything else was amazing, is try to loosen the bow hairs just a smidge oh it just caught my eye is I know for aucustic cello which I have its not recommended to hang in on the wall but I dont know for electric. I hope you keep it up!
@Winding_Lines Жыл бұрын
Ah, thanks Madie! Something like that stop sounds like it would be very useful - I do notice it slipping on my floor! I tried to put it in my slipper yesterday, but then I had to stand on the other end of my slipper to stop that slipping too! 😂😂 Thanks for the other advice too! I'll try to research about electric cellos and wall-hanging! Thanks!!

My mom always assumed that it would be too expensive (it is, but there are ways to reduce the costs). And my mom tried to push me into more “social activities” that I hated…

hello, I have been learning cello since 2012 and to me, your cello is out of tune: the bridge seems askew and your bow seems too tight. For a first year of cello, a luthier could have directed you towards a rental for a year before buying. You will have to go there anyway to adjust the pegs, the endpin, the tailpiece and the bridge. Learning on an electric cello seems complicated to me because the sound projection is not at all the same. A traditional cello is better for correcting intonation and bowing technique. Anyway, good luck to you. PS : to hold the cello in the right position, buy a wedge for your endpin
@Winding_Lines Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the comment! I couldn't find any good rental options near me, but yeah, I'll get someone to check on the tuning for me, thanks! I'm having lots of fun with it! 😊 A wedge seems like a good idea!

Hello, I'm a young cellist, and I've been playing cello for around 9 years now and here a couple tips that I can give you. In my opinion the most fundamental part of cello is the posture. Ideally, you would have the C peg right behind your ear. I would raise the end pin up by a bit so the cello can go farther up. Otherwise, for the body posture, it is mostly correct. For the right arm posture, the bow hold needs a lot of work. make sure to relax your right shoulder and dont hold any tension. For the actual bowhold, it is hard to explain it over text. I'd just search up cellobello bow hold and there are probably some great videos out there that can help you. Good luck on your cello journey.
@Winding_Lines Жыл бұрын
Thanks Isaac! This is really helpful! I was wondering yesterday if I had the end pin out enough because my bow was hitting my thigh a little when I tried to play the A string! Getting the C peg just above my ear is a helpful reference point. And yes, for the bow hold I will do that. I am struggling with that without it killing my thumb, so I'm sure it's not right yet! Thank you for the tips and the kind wishes! All the best!
@whathandleisnttaken Жыл бұрын
@@Winding_Lines I'm glad I was helpful. For the bowhold, the thumb will hurt if you aren't used to it. There are these things called stringvision on Amazon that will protect your thumb. You don't need one but it might make it a bit more comfortable. You can also go to a Luthier and ask them to put a plastic tube over the bow. They will do it for free sometimes. You don't need it but it could help.
@whathandleisnttaken Жыл бұрын
Forgot to add that relaxing the thumb will help it not hurt and it allows for a more flexible bow hold.

@@whathandleisnttaken Yeah, I think this will make a difference! I'm definitely gripping it too hard at the moment.

I have the feeling that your skates are too big, especially since the liner widens over time. As exercises, I recommend you try jumping from the asphalt to the grass. That's how I learned 180. Good luck.
@Winding_Lines Жыл бұрын
Ah, interesting. That's probably fair, as they are size 7-8 and I'm usually a size 7, but they're very comfortable and I'll just make sure to tighten them as much as possible. Do you think they should be tighter around the ankle, where the liner comes out? Thanks for the recommendation - I did start doing 180s completely on the grass, which was so much easier, but I think moving to the concrete just scares me a lot more, haha! I need to go back to the grass though to get used to trying to jump higher!

@@Winding_Lines The coincidence is that I have the same model, Powerslide Zoom 100, size 7-7.5 US (my foot is around 253 mm) They are very comfortable and I prefer to tighten them just a little, because are perfectly molded on my foot. I noticed that the liner compresses over time and becomes loose, but there is a solution. You can add a sole over the already present one and it is solved with the extra space :). Keep having fun!
