Location:  Home/Studio of Sharon Walton

Topic: “Improving Body Awareness through Imagery for Efficient and Coordinated Movement.”

Presenter: Lynn Singleton

Lynn is an assistant teaching professor of piano, group keyboard skills and keyboard harmony, and serves as Wellness coordinator for the OSU School of Music.

Lynn will offer a presentation on the importance of having an accurate understanding of body structure and biomechanics of movement before we can guide  students in their physical approach to their instrument.

Following the presentation, participants may wish to share strategies that have helped them in working with students.  The Forum could also address specific problems and possible solutions to issues which teachers have had in helping  students to be more at ease at their instruments.
