PAWS placement (bow)
When forming a correct bow hold, review the checkpoints:
All fingers are curved and naturally spaced.
Fingers are relaxed and around the stick or over the frog.
On violin & viola the pinky is on top of the stick; on cello & bass, the pinky lays over stick
Thumb has a “bump.” (It is okay if it lightly touches the bow hair)
Thumb opposes middle finger.
Hand should a slight tilt (pronate) toward the tip of the bow. This is more prominent on violin and viola, and less so for cello and bass.
