Welcome to Cello Essentials!  The purpose of this web site is to explore, experience and understand balance and the impact it can have on healthy cello technique.  Balance is at the essence of every athletic activity, and we can use our understanding of balance to reduce tension, strain and injury in cello playing.  Please feel free to ask questions if concepts are not clear – I will happily expand on any video or text explanations.  I hope you find answers and relief within the pages of the this web site!
