Hand Speed & Control Exercise - The Subdivision Pyramid 

Love this exercise. Love the way you articulate and make it seem easy.

This is a good exercise. Good 4 way coordination.and development of hand speed. Also working on going from one subdivision to the next. I may use this as a warmup also. Thanks for showing this to us and breaking it down.good stuff as always

These exercises are very helpful and help me get better and quicker

Great lesson! Timeless

great exercise and one that not much people talk about. Can you post the sticking for each subdivision? please! R-L etc

Your lessons are very helpful

That is a great exercise and well demonstrated! Great lesson for all drummers!

Great, lesson. When you get these dialled in you can feel the added gravitas to your playing. You can do with clave on the feet also.

Awesome bro!!

Great vid! Thanks for the awesome exercise!😀

Great lesson cheers

Thank you!

Great video I do the same but I also put quintuplets and septuplets

Great lesson. When I was younger I began also to practice playing quintuplets (5)and sevens and even nines to complete the pyramid. This would then be a cycle of: quarter notes, quarter note triplets, eight notes, eight note triplets, sixteenth notes,* five notes, sixteenth note triplets, *seven notes, thirty second note triplets, nine notes. Id play at a slower tempo of course because of the nines at the end. For those unfamiliar: fives , sevens and nines are when you play that number of notes to a quarter note. Just as you can play triplets ie three notes to a quarter, you can play other odd number subdivisions also. I think this great teacher here could do on this for advanced players , a video suggestion

I do the same.. just starting with quarter notes.. and subdivide with 2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and back ... my next goal is to jump from a random to a random.. I practice in 50 bpm with this exersice.

Ima gonna practice this until I get it. : years ago I was in a bad wreck. After brain surgery’s an a lot of stuff, im back wanting to play again. My right side of my body just hesitates now. My brain is still telling me what to do. It’s just hitting every other hit fast but slowed down I can hit ever hit with the right hand. Everyone sais practice but 2 weeks in an it’s still the same

Another Hand Development/Chop Builder Lesson! Are you comfortable with your triplets?

Make a tutorial on hihat licks and chops ,

Are you in a band bro

Damn you quarter note triplets!!!

Questuon: are those 32nd notes doubles? Or fast singles?

Alternate from singles to doubles. Or left & kick- right & kick while holding down ostinato on the hi hat
