#AskVidasAndAusra 81: I seem to be somewhat dyslexic between my feet and my left hand
b"Alan writes:\\n\\nHello Vidas and Ausra,\\n\\nThis is a very interesting problem that Vince describes, and one I can empathise with. In my case, I seem to be somewhat dyslexic between my feet and my left hand. Which is to say, when I make a mistake, I often find that I have confused the left hand (tenor) and pedal (bass) lines. Somehow I am reading the bass line but the instructions are being carried out by my left hand instead of my feet (and visa versa)! I have to stop, recognise what is happening, and mentally reassociate parts with hands and feet in order to continue. It is frustrating, but I do believe that the right sort of exercises/training could improve independence of motion, and strengthen the linkage between parts and hands/feet. I have tried to develop a few such exercises myself, but I haven't had very much success in eradicating the problem yet.\\n\\nI continue to enjoy and benefit from your daily postings. Thanks and keep up the good work!\\n\\nRegards,\\n\\nAlan Peterson\\n(Sydney, Australia)\\n\\nhttp://www.organduo.lt"
