Hi, Zuzanna, thanks for the video, it is helpful 😊. My teacher told me that it is a must to get some blisters on the fingers so I will not feel hurting anymore. But this video change my mind! Looks like it is ok to not getting any blisters! 😌

Oml- Thank you so much for this- I’ve been playing for at least 7 years, but don’t practice nearly enough lol, so this was a rlly good explanation. Thank you again :))

You're very welcome! You don't need to practise for hours and hours - even 10 minutes of focused practice helps, and the more regularly you can do it, the better! All the best for your adventure with the harp, let me know how it goes 💛

Dziękuję za dobry temat. Od tygodnia uczę się gry na harfie haczykowej, uniknę może pęcherzy.

Wspaniale - powodzenia w tej pięknej podróży! 😍A nawet jeśli bąble się przydarzą, to też doświadczenie - jeśli damy sobie czas, zawsze się zagoją 💛
