Notes

• This exercise helps identify where tension appears when under stress so you can recognize and release it in performance.
• Relax the eyes, shoulders, mouth, breath, and mind.
• Ride the rhythm instead of trying to figure the pattern out.
• Don’t attach to success. Allow yourself to do it poorly.
