The classic sentence, " The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog, " first used as part of a 1800's I.Q. test for elementary school children, was recycled during the 1940's as a test to measure typing speed and accuracy.

FACT or CRAP ?

Strangely, this may be due to two things which have nothing to do with hand-eye coordination (or so it would at first seem. . . ):
1. Playing in steady time. Even if you're playing S L O W E R than the suggested speed, that your hands (and really, the rest of your body) move in good steady time.
2. Knowing where your fingers are. Yes, this sounds like a big "DUH," but I have had students and friends need prompts when to move their thumbs to the next part of the scale/piece. You may even need to say it. . . again, with good internal time.

The random third thing:
3. Always breathe in time. . . and seriously, don't forget to breathe. You can get so nervous/weirded-out/preoccupied that you forget to breathe. You forget to breathe, then you do something with your body out of time. . . or even worse, you do it with less oxygen than you would say, using Purdy brushes to paint stuff.
