would you recommend on the left hand accents to maybe use your left foot if you have a double bass or doublepedal

[freedrumlessons]

@Archkyrie11 Sure, that's a great way to take it to the next level. Good idea :)

@BPIRIVATRIC everyone has their own path. That may work for some, but it won't work for everyone. That's not the way I learned and I've taught 1000s of others online using a wide range of concepts, not just playing to their favorite songs but a much more diversified technical/musical approach. The students are having success so I guess it actually does work.

@BPIRIVATRIC You should never build skill by copying another drummer, that just makes you a mimic. If you truly want to build your chops around the kit, learn your rudiments, and go play. Simple as that.

Thank you man for your lessons. Maybe you're not the wold best drummer (why not?), but you're a good teacher.

dude you are more than perfect as a teacher

i think there is also a secret bass building in here cuz the 2 stroke isnt bad but work the 3 stroke evenly after practicing it for a little while will burn but be a big help

@XxStrongDrums1996xX thnx! ^^

[XxStrongDrums1996xX]

@jukka252 They aren't easy to master. Your best bet is to sit down with a pad and a metronome every day and practice. Primarily, you want to practice rudiments at a slow to medium tempo. It is a common fallacy that playing things fast will make you faster. Now, this is true, but if you play at a speed beyond your capabilities, then you will develop sloppy rudiments. Make sure that every note is EXACTLY on the click, and muscle memory will take over. The speed will come naturally.

@XxStrongDrums1996xX yeah...i'm not a noob drummer...but i suck at my rudiments dude...REALLY SUCK AT THEM!!! =(
