Yoga within the music studio.
Over the years I have noticed that when students arrive for their lessons, many are tired, sleepy or lack concentration. Small talk, a short game or sight reading helps them somewhat to think of music. However, while their mind might be able to shift to the present, their bodies are far from ready to play an instrument. Their back is tense from carrying a heavy backpack, their legs are tired from kicking a soccer ball, their arms are stiff from holding tennis rackets and the list goes on and on. Asking a tired student to start with scales and arpeggios may not help either. Thus began my search to help my students, and I found the answer in my own yoga practice.
