(German frog)

  • Grip the bow as indicated in the photo.

  • Place the hair of the bow on a string close to the frog.

  • Push down on the string using mainly the pressure of the index finger and pull the bow to the right. Release some of the finger/arm pressure as soon as the bow starts moving and pull the bow into the palm of the hand, the fingers becoming more arched.

  • Draw the bow until it reaches the tip end of the bow hair.

  • Carry out the same motions in reverse direction, i.e. to the left, this time, however, pushing the frog away from the palm of the hand, the fingers becoming more straight.
