Spacing exercises
« on: September 07, 2023, 04:34:34 PM »
Hello everyone! I was looking at spacing, and saw somewhere about the letter sequences that help with it (for example, many a's in a row). What are the most common ones that someone "must" try? What other "spacing exercises" you have to suggest?
Thank you in advance

Spacing is one of the most challenging attributes to master. Which hand are you working on?

Writing the word "minimum" is good fun for spacing and clarity.

So true, I like that one also! Anything for the loop letters?
