Very good posture. Stands with weight evenly on both feet. Instrument position mostly correct, but fingerboard is pointing down toward the ground.

Exceeding
Arm weight is into the string. Playing is very confident with a strong sound. Bow is straight cellos - in the middle of the fingerboard and bridge, bass - right below the fingerboard. Bow hold is correct and relaxed.
