For a beginner, holding a violin is one of the most crucial things to learn when you are first learning how to play. This is one of the mistakes commonly made by children when they learn to position the instrument with their hand. However, they should be learning how to hold it with their chin only. In order to promote a good understanding how to hold a violin properly, here is a guide on what should be happening when you learn to hold your violin.

To begin with, you start in rest position. Once again, this is particularly for a beginner. Put your feet together and make a V for violin. You then step out with either foot so that your equal distance apart from your shoulders. Note here that your shoulders should be the same and your feet must be parallel to the shoulders.

The first finger and the thumb should be aligned when playing a whole step above the nut. It is worth noting here that all fingers should be curved and the nails made short enough to ensure that the fingers can strike the fingerboard on their tips.

The best position is such that you are not able to see the top of your shoulder. If the gadget is on top of the shoulder, let go of it and even put the left hand on your right shoulder. Position the head in such a way that it is turned and at the same time relaxed and laid backward as when you are sleeping. This should not be overdone, but just a little bit.

At this point, you are staring at the D string using about half of your chin and cheek to hold the equipment. Note here that it is just half of the chin, not the whole thing because that is what it would look like. This is the proper way to hold a violin.

Ensure to practice more often. This is exactly how to do it so as to keep your fingers free. Letting the fingers free enables them to shift all over the equipment as opposed to having to hold them. Instead, hold the equipment and they will not be able to shift freely.

This is a beautiful position for the violin. With the position, the equipment is nice and flat. It is enjoyable to play and very interesting. You can use a mirror to check everything you are doing and remember to remain relaxed and composed.

Simply put, make a V shape, take your left hand to the left shoulder and make a straight arm over the left foot. You then flip it over and fly it in. Ensure that the equipment is on the shoulder using half of your cheek and half of the chin. Finally, fly the left hand to the right shoulder and there you have a beautiful position.
