Re: Stand Up, Sit Down, Touch Your Toes

One important, I think key consideration is that most of us do most of our playing sitting down. Unless you play solo recitals (and some players sit even for those), you aren't performing much if at all standing. So the improvements we can make when we practice standing up must be carried over to our seated playing to mean much.

Griffinity, you mentioned J- vs S-shaped spine. Can you expand more on what conscious changes you've made to your standing posture and what happens to it (what exactly do you mean by "rounding" your back?) when you go back to sitting?
