Part I of our stitching series will focus on the anatomy of the surgical needle and how to pick the needle up properly. We will describe different types of needles. We will focus attention on the pickup of the needle which will help you improve the accuracy of stitching while maintaining the relaxed posture of operating. This needs conscious attention at first but will become automatic with practice. Technique triumphs over speed and power. BBASS focuses on flow, rhythm and lightness of touch. Does your needle sing for you? Learn how to use your needle. BBASS is the first in the field to deconstruct and attend to the basics by drawing learning and inspiration from the Martial Arts.
