    An absolute MUST for beginners. “Into the Morin Khurr” has some great basics on the bow, but this dives so much deeper, and provides excellent camera angles, exercises, and detailed breakdowns of all the different types of bows and bow holds you can use in learning. I hadn’t quiet figured out the proper technique, but after watching this, I sent a video to Steve and he said I was doing great! The detail given in this course really helped me fix some issues and provided me with some great bow exercises that I can use alone or in conjunction with the scale study from “Into the Morin Khurr.” In less than an hour, my bow technique improved dramatically. I’m excited to practice these exercises over the next few days to really lock it in, and they will be part of my warm ups from here on out! Thanks again, Steve, for another great lesson!
