Re: Puffed Cheeks

I've been fighting a sneaky right cheek that pokes out when my attention goes to some other playing need.

I've been thinking of trying to sit on my teachers' right side, so he can't see whats going on, but that's been hard to sell.

I'm convinced that I need to stop letting that bulge happen because, when listening attentatively, I can hear my tone quality deteriorate as that cheek escapes.

That's why I suggested having your student listen carefully with his cheeks in and out of control.
