Drum lesson - How to twirl a drum stick! Not essential when learning drums but a bit of fun! 

I do it a little bit different. I was taught by a martial artist back in the late 70s to hold my hand to the side.. using the technique with the stick between the fingers rotating , also at the same time my wrist and a waving in circular motion. Which allows the stick to rotate faster and more powerful. With more control

you are Beautiful. I've played professionally since I was 15 in 1968. I am now 70 this July. it was always fascinating to see a drummer twirl their sticks, and never figured it out. thank you very much for showing me the trick!! although I have Stage 4 cancer now, I still want to learn this before I leave this world.

ok this is so difficult!! idk why i’ve tried this like 20 times!!

I guess I have no excuse to not learn this with such a good explanation.

How sweet of you to share this. I always wanted to know this. Thank you so much!

Thank you for actually being a really talented drummer and not one of those "lady's" that dress skimpy for views. You're truly amazing!!!

First off beautiful blues 💙 and rad I'm a guitarist and I've always wanted to know the mechanics thanks! Keep up the Rock sister!

I go the other direction from you and I have always loved using this trick when playing fills into crash and back to main beat.

That's so cute from you sharing this...awesome!!!

Easy way of teaching mam. Thank you so much 🥰❤️

Very cool! Awesome tutorial! As long as you don’t drop it or poke your eye 💜💜💜

I don't play drums but this has now given me something to do with my pen in class. Thanks random RU-vid algorithm recommendations!

and now we know ❤️🇨🇦

Only person to show this , I will now practice

This really helps! Pointing out how you move your indexfinger in circles did it for me :D

FINALLY! A stick trick I am actually able to do!!!

Thank you for this I can do it a little bit so thank you so much 😮😊🥹

Its so cool! Thx for tutorial and u look like Skylar from breaking bad

Thank you so much for this tutorial ❤❤🫶🏻🫶🏻🩷🤘

I genuinely thought they were like... Spinning the drumstick over fingers in between other fingers lol. I had no idea the stick just stays between your index of middle finger, so it doesn't actually do a 360 spin. You learn something new everyday

Awe thank u for sharing this..😃❤️

muchas gracias por compartirlo!!! thank you so much, i'm learning to play drums and it's really kinda hard

Cool. Thank you! I Always wanted to know exactly how it's working. One Thing more to impress the Chicks with. Lol! Bye and have a good time!!!

Thank u love ❤💚

Very good nice Lady. Pretty and smart. Like this combination. 😂👍

WOW THANKS

😂 I just hit myself in the eye!!

Wow that's quite a lot of Manhattan drum sticks in the background 😂😊

shoot pin spining technics came in handy for me

EMMERSON DE LAGOA DOURADA - BRASIL THANK YOU . Fantástico . Muito obrigado

I’ve played since I was 5. I’m 71. I don’t want to twirl. Time better spent practicing drum techniques. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.🥁🎶

I love this I've been trying to learn this for alonl time

Thanks For The Freebie ! ! ! !

EXCELLENT . THANKS YOU SO MUCH 🤩🤩🤩🤘🤘🤘❤❤🙏😇

Thank you 🙂

I done that a little bit. But very good

So when you see a drummer doing this, they are not really spinning the stick. It is just an optical delusion. LOL

I am a drummer and can do this learnt this of my dad as he was, a fully professional drummer... As anybody heard of the star tones drums.. Trumpet.. Electerbox Norman. Harry.. John...

Amazing..Thank you🙏😍💐

It's a revelation. I had it wrong for so long

I want to learn drums and being once a pen spinner actually help wooooh hahaha

Nice🤩

Very informative

I’m about to buy my first drum set. So this is a must learn before I know how to play. Gotta look like a drummer before I become a drummer.

Thank you 💋❤️

Nice 💪

Thanks for pointing out how humongous my hands look 🥲 Got the same sticks and they look like 7a in my hands

Cool! :)

Awesome

The stick always move towards my finger tips, how do you fix these problem?stay healthy

Thank you

Fascinating. Where else you gonna get this? I better subscribe, please carry on!

Great tutorial! You're very, very good. Even though I've perfected my tricks over the years I've always refrained from using them on stage during gigs. I feel it's too much of a distraction for the audience and takes away from the music at hand. Not to mention, there is nothing more embarrassing than dropping a stick while unnecessarily showing off. I just stick to the basics, so to speak, and do the job. All due respect, just my opinion.😊

Cool

How do I keep it from going up because I manage to do 1 twirl and it slowly goes up my fingers and just leaves my hand 😅😅

Omg my finger gamers gotta improve after an hour of this this😢

And all these years I've been doing it the hard way😅

Ciara I tried but I poked my eyeball out! it's, ok doc says stitches can come out next week. more how twos plez

Are you perfectly balancing the stick with your hand/wrist while you twirl or do you grip it so it can’t slip/slide? I can only do it when it’s perfectly balanced and it takes like 4-5 twirls before it starts sliding :(. Wondering if it’s my grip that’s too firm or too loose or the position of my hand/wrist.

I have a feeling you are an accomplished drummer too... but I viewed this vid several times just to see your face.

🎉🎉

Thank you dear 😢Wes

😊😊

👍🏼👏🏻✌️🙏🏻

Okay the Drummers from the south are the best look it up Sonny Emory we grew up with the Best in the world I'm a Musician professionally from Atlanta

I like how she edged that stick

Damn, I like the way she can manipulate her fingers.

🥁👍👊🤘🔥🤘🤘🤘

Is the stick actually moving around your finger? Or does it just appear to.

Thanks I even seventy and I'm just learning how to play drums

👍

Whoa double jointed

Koo...I do it forward on the way to a crash before it falls out.

It’s easier to go counterclockwise, because you can actually throw it into motion forward instead of the way you are showing. Just saying. I’ve been doing this for 60 years, both hands.

So what is the purpose of stick twirling? Lol does make you drum and sound better. Or is it just to show boat?

👏👏👏👏💯 🤜🇨🇺🤛

You have amazin eyes.

hi bluey

Love Vater

Thanks. Il tray it.

Now I'm know ... I'm stupid hehe

I it my sister

guys wait i learned it in the other direction help-

Wiggle Wiggle Wiggle

That looks so isi

She is way better than John Bonham on drums, damn she’s amazing

Hell that looks like cheating. I always thought the stick actually twirled around your index finger lol.

I don’t do much of that

sweetlady when you pink

If you can’t play a kit what’s the sense

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

You’re beautiful and welcome…….

Funny that everyone twirls stick differently

Your opposite of that fake Ringo? Your a right handed drummer playing a left handed kit? He is a left handed drummer trying to play a right handed kit.

Deaf people: 😃 Blind people: 😨

Worst tutorial I’ve ever seen. Thanks 🙏

I twirl mine palm down..

Thank you
