BREAKDOWN OF 8 CORE MODULES
Each module builds intentionally, so nothing feels overwhelming.
Module 1 – Introduction & Your First Groove
In this opening module, you’ll meet your instructor, learn what it really means to be a drummer, get familiar with the drum kit, understand the role of the metronome, and play your very first drum groove—laying a strong foundation for everything that comes next.
Module 2: Kick Drum Foundations & Four on the Floor
In this module, you’ll build powerful kick drum control using the classic four-on-the-floor pattern, learn how quarter notes and eighth notes work together, and practice locking in at different tempos.
Module 3: Drum Fills, Crashes & Musical Transitions
In this module, you’ll learn how drum fills add flavor, energy, and clear transitions to a song—without overplaying. We’ll break down when to use fills (and when not to), explore four-bar phrasing, practice simple snare and tom fills, and finish strong with kick-and-crash landings that bring the band back to “one” with confidence.
Module 4: High Hat Techniques & Groove Dynamics
In this module, we’ll explore everything about the high hat: closed, semi-open, and fully open techniques, plus offbeat patterns and 16th-note variations. You’ll learn how to create dynamic grooves, build tension, and add “spice” to your beats with simple foot and hand coordination.
Module 5: Groove Variations & Musical Choices
In this module, you’ll explore syncopation and develop hand-foot independence with the bass drum. Learn how to play offbeat patterns, create dynamic push-and-pull grooves, and build coordination between your hands and feet to add variety and tension to your drumming.
Module 6: Snare Drum Creativity – Ghost Notes & Syncopation
In this module, you’ll explore snare drum creativity through ghost notes and syncopation. Learn how to add subtle, soft hits between backbeats, play offbeat snare patterns, and combine these techniques to transform grooves.
Module 7: Style Awareness
In this module, you’ll explore triplets, swing, and time signature changes to expand your rhythmic vocabulary. Learn how to play in 3/4, 6/8, and 4/4 meters, add rolling triplet feels, and swing patterns for jazz, funk, gospel, and hip-hop grooves.
Module 8: Putting It All Together – Play a Full Song
Congratulations! In this final module, you’ll bring everything you’ve learned together and play a complete song: Dynamite by BTS at 114 BPM. Learn to navigate space in music, combine grooves, manage breaks, and execute fills. By the end, you’ll be ready to perform the full song and showcase your drumming skills.
