hand coordination
on: July 20, 2005, 03:56:54 PM
how do I practice to make sure that my hands are in sync with each other. Any time I start to get a faster speed, by hands start to really get uneven.

When working on separate hands, observe which is the slow hand. When practising hands together, make your top speed the speed of the slow hand.

Lack of synch is caused by the slow hand not being able to keep up with the fast hand.

Therefore, to increase speed of Hands Together, work towards increasing the speed of the slow hand (this is, of course, hands separate work :P).

Best wishes,
Bernhard.
