Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Place one chopstick in the crook of your thumb and index finger.
The
chopstick should be at the base of your thumb, and your thumb should
be
about 1/3rd the way down from the broad end of the chopstick.
2. Rest the chopstick on your ring finger between 1/2 and 2/3rds the
way
down the chopstick. The first chopstick should now be very stable,
with
one end securely between your thumb and index finger, and the other
end
resting on your ring finger.
3. Place the second chopstick in your hand the way you would hold a
pen.
It should rest slightly on the tip of your thumb, and be held into
place
with support from your middle finger.
4. Use your index and middle fingers to practice moving the tip of
the
top chopstick up and down. The bottom chopstick should remain
relatively
still. As you move the top one down, the tip should meet up with the
tip
of the bottom one, like a pair of tweezers, or the long beak of a
bird.
5. Imagine you are pinching something. If the tips aren't meeting up,
adjust one chopstick so they do, because it will be very difficult to
pick anything up if the tips of the chopsticks aren't evenly aligned.
