Kinds of Practice

Always set practice goals before you begin your practice each day. If you do not have a practice plan, you will waste valuable time.

One good way of organizing a practice session is to *divide it into four sessions:

  • Warm-up time
  • Building time
  • Interpreting time
  • Performing time

This strategy is effective for certain practice needs, but it should not be considered “the best way.” As long as a goal is set and a strategy is planned and carried out that leads to reaching the goal, various ways of organizing a practice session could be effective.
