Practice Cube

This “Practice Cube” is a customizable cube cut-out with different technical exercises on each face. Set a timer and roll the cube to select your next exercise - perfect for keeping your (or your student’s) technique time fresh and interesting!

Included Exercises (or you can change them):

Scales: I usually focus on one scale per day.
Children’s Songs: Bust out Suzuki Book 1 and go to town.
JI Arpeggios: Arpeggios with a Just Intonation three-note drone.
5-min Crux: Choose the hardest move in a piece, and practice just that for 5 min.
Squeak Fart: Set a drone and play that note all over the instrument.
Bowing Book: Or other bowing technique, as desired.

To use: choose your file type, click the link to download, add your exercises, print the doc, cut along the solid lines, fold along the dotted lines, and glue/tape together. I like to roll the cube and select a new activity every ten minutes for half an hour.
