[lauritz]

I will concede that I haven't actually learned much of it yet, I've just always thought it looks beautiful.

What I have tried so far (the arm movements, and copying some of the letters) works with the left hand surprisingly well. They tell you to rest your arm only on a point near the elbow and on the ring finger and pinky ("the wrist should never touch the paper"). I managed not to smudge anything instinctively using those instructions. Still, I'm not sure if I've got the posture exactly right yet (and I'll probably be able to tell after I've written like this extensively).
