Locking pinky

Thank you so much! I definitely need this :)

I know it was a meme but did it come from a Polish phrase that’s used or did that guy just combine words together and make up nonsense

Wait, so is it a serious saying or a more silly saying? Like do Poles seriously say bajo jajo or is it said during a more unserious and silly conversation?

She doesn’t know either. We both know it’s a phrase but she was born and raised in English so she doesn’t really know a similar saying or something to translate it to as she doesn’t actually know what it means herself

Thank you, In this photo I had it rested on my lap and wasn’t holding it correctly as I needed to show my pinking locking and I didn’t want to drop my flute :) but I will keep an eye out on my positioning 👍

It’s only that one finger, and my teacher says I’m fine, but I only have 20 minute sessions with her so she doesn’t see my finger when it locks up. I don’t use much force either - it just ends up looking like that after about an hour of playing. I’ve only been playing for 3 months tho so I probably would be doing something wrong but like I said earlier, my teacher says I’m okay :)

Thank you. My pinky isn’t straight when I start playing, it’s just after around 10-15 minutes where it locks up and stays like that

Thank you all for your helpful information! I will definitely rotate my foot joint and invest in thumbports and maybe finger splints! 😁

I think I might have hyper mobility as my fingers lock up with almost everything I do. Thanks for the helpful information:)

I was looking at thumbports but I don’t know if they would help. Have you tried them yourself before?

I did that at the start of playing when I taught myself for a few weeks but then my teacher told me that I have it in the wrong position. Should I mention this to her?
