piano fitness is a turn-on.  turn IT on! define IT=mind, mind's ear, the sound of the instrument (think like you're listening to your mp3's), the feelings in the levers.  learn to listen to all of IT.

piano fitness is imaginative.  the listening/feeling connection tonight reminded me of patty duke as helen keller when she understood "water".  there is a transformation undeniably happening.  i'm imagine i'm listening to the radio or cd while playing and it's sounding very good!  i am still learning to listen......

10 pairs-the 2 man teams give each other support if forearm/full arm are in position.

piano fitness is on-going.  the instructions from colleen continue to spark the synapses and the elusive "perfect" form still develops.  the forward pointing thumb, the awareness just behind the tip of fingers, (and of course especially 2),  changes the freefalling forearm completely.
