Hello,

I have been playing viola for about 4 months. I can`t afford lessons right now so I`m teaching myself. I learned all the scales that use open strings within 2 months. I have a good ear because I play other insturments. Now I am starting to use my pinky for all scales instead of open strings and its not going well.

As soon as I lift my ring finger, my pinky straightens out. Then its way out of position when it has to come down again.

Any one have any tips?

Thanks
