Basic Body Position for Writing Steno Speed Drills Correctly.
How you sit has much to do with your success in stenography and court reporting. Learn to sit properly while you do your speedbuilding practice. If you do, you will practice longer and better.

Remember that speedbuilding drills can tire you out. A stenographer or court reporter must learn to sit for long periods of time. Stenography students have not learned to sit properly, and they tire quicker.
Steno practice should be fun. Speed building should be fun. When you practice your stenography dictation drills, keep a positive outlook. And look to the future.
Stenography is a great field. Learn to have fun. Learn to love it.
