１ Posture of the shakuhachi

1. 1 Beforehand confirmation of the "尺八"
 �@The joint of the "尺八" does not slip off or confirms whether a hole
    becomes straight.
 �AHow to grip "尺八" makes it on the basis of dancing posture. It is
    important to maintain this posture even if I sit down.
 �BHaving a "尺八", I relax shoulder and attach both hands to both sides
    lightly. Even if have for a long time; I image the posture that
    is confortable.
 �CThe overall dancing posture attracts a chin in the form of the character
    of the posture that bowed"く" , the tip of the "尺八" I see it.

1. 3 Operation of a hand and the finger
 �@I put a finger at the finger position of the fingering list.
 �AIt is an ideal that a "尺八" and the finger become the right angle,
    but may become slightly diagonal.
 �BThe finger rounds the whole finger for an image to beat the keyboard of
    the piano a little
    The opening and shutting of the hole raises or lowers a finger at the
    root of the finger and opens and closes a hole. You must not do the
    operation to bend the joint of the finger, and to open and close a hole
    except a case of "メリ".
 �CThere are the back of the hand and a forefinger and the medicine
    fingertip of right and left in the finger-tip parallel to a　"尺八"　 a
    little from a hole I take in a hole in the stomach of the finger-tip for a
    feeling. (right photograph) therefore should bend the wrist to the
    character of the "く" a little inward softly.
 �DAs we are filled with a sound if how to put up fingers is small, let's be
    careful.
