Titting The Scales Worksheet (pdf)
Titting The Scales – performed by The Chair:  https://youtu.be/IQDe7I_BeQs   (from about 3 mins)

These videos are for two specific classical violin techniques but triplets/birls/semiquavers use a combination of these wrist and finger movements. The exercises in these videos are great practice for loosening your wrist and fingers but also show how you can still achieve a crisp sound whilst having a relaxed wrist.
