Keep your hands tall!

For my piano students, many of you have heard me say this as your wrists sagged below the keys.

Remember that your fingers often hit more than the key(s) you're aiming for when your hands are not "over the keys," and they actually have to work harder, possibly causing injury.  

Remind yourself to check, before you start each song and when you reach the end, to see if your hand position is improving.
