Proper hand position prevents injury and allows your fingers to move freely across the keys.

• Your hand should form a relaxed dome shape with fingertips pointing down toward the keys.
• Keep your wrist level with your forearm, not bent up or drooping down.
• Use the fleshy part just behind your nail for a precise, controlled touch.
• Tension in your upper body will tighten your fingers and slow you down.

Practising this posture from day one prevents bad habits that are hard to fix later.
