Hypermobility can make piano technique, posture, and hand shape more challenging than they appear. In this episode, I share my own experience as a hypermobile pianist and offer practical, teacher-friendly strategies for supporting students with mild hypermobility—while recognizing when a medical referral may be appropriate. Learn how to encourage healthy technique, avoid joint hyperextension, and create lessons that work with your students’ bodies, not against them.
