Easy Stretches and Exercises for Calligraphers

Easy Stretches and Exercises for Calligraphers

We’re all guilty of not stretching and strengthening our neck, hand, shoulder muscles to help us write in calligraphy, including myself! So I asked Erika, my good friend and kinesiologist, to write me up a workout that is perfect for someone who is working with their hands a lot while sitting down. I am so excited to share this video because I think it’s so relevant to our struggles everyday, where we aren’t slowing or pausing to reset our bodies before we continue working.

Also, I’ve compiled all of these exercises into a little PDF if you’re interested in getting them. Here you go!
