Ok for a start. I think you did'nt get proper training. I have also just started to learn the drums, check my vid. Remember to keep counting 1 2 3 4 - 1 2 3 4 in your head while practicing and also try to hit the hihat continuously on the count and add bass drum on 1 and 3 and snare on 3 for the basic beat.

I haven't had any sort of training at all. This video is 6 months old and I've improved a bit. But for some reason I'm still having trouble using my foot at the same time as my hands. Thanks for the advise, I'll post a new drumming video soon of my progress and I'll check out your videos, thanks.

Start with the basic beat, that will help with the leg movement

1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4

H H H H H H H H

B B B B S S

H - Hihat

B - Bass drum

S - Snare

once done, start doing alterations and substitutions. That 1-2-3-4 is called a bar or a measure. Mostly people do 4 bars again n again in most forms of music, which is known as 4/4 time signature. In the 4th bar usually there is drum roll, hope that helps :)
