You slide it on from the behind. The easiest way is to sit down, put the violin between your thighs to keep it from moving, then slide on the shoulder rest and VOILA! Shoulder rest is on:) Remember to make sure that the wider side is on the right.

I Know it sounds bad but when i didnt have a proper rest i used a sponge so take a rubber band. Put the sponge where your shoulder is a sort of stretch the rubber band around the shoulder part and the sponge will stay in place.

What is a shoulder rest for a violin?

It is something you put between the violin and your shoulder (hence the name) to make it more comfortable to play. It also helps your posture while you are playing. Most professionals highly recommend the use of a shoulder rest. It can also help prevent back injuries. It feels a little weird playing with it at first, however, as you play with a shoulder rest it becomes quite comfy and it becoms quite hard to play without one.
