Snare Drum Lesson #1 

You have so much patience and are not in a hurry to HURRY US! Thank you for these exercises and continuing to encourage new and older players. MOST other instructors want to move on to the next rift quickly.

I love the little assurances in between. Makes me want to keep going. Great teacher.

I’m going to do this twice everyday for a week wish me luck bois

thank you for staying with us the whole time. some instructors end up just being quiet after the explanation. I enjoyed your being there.

I want to learn drumming this is perfect. Other youtube style lessons just move on too quickly and it's intimidating

I love this concept. I'm following the recommendation of doing the lesson every day for a week. As the week has progressed and I've become more confident, I've found that increasing the video playback speed is keeping it challenging.

This video was a long time ago. As was the last comments. So illm just commenting bere to say this is still helping many people in luding myself today and i am over the moon i got this in my sight as assistance for the future. Thanks so much and please continue to create drum related videos. Your style of teaching is incredibly understanding and accommodating to many peoples styles of learning. Please do more like this. So good. Thank you. 🥁

This is the best lesson for co-ordination as a comlpete beginner I've seen. Thank you Eliseo. This is really good.

These are the exact patterns my school is using to teach me drumming, now I can really practice what my school is teaching

Now, that is what you call a lesson. I like the slow build-up to get you used to the timing.

This made it so easy for me to improve upon my sticking. I love your encouragement as we go through together. The best teacher I've ever had and you aren't even my teacher! I wish I could like twice!

Thank you, Eliseo! I love to practice along with your video. It's very comforting having someone walking me through it. It makes it a lot more motivating too.

I’ve gotten better at these, thanks for helping others, God bless you!

Thanks so much! Helped me alot. Im in a homeschool marching band and ive been having some trouble with my drum and this helped so much. Thanks again!

This helped me so much!!! Now I am even more faster when I play the drum. Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much for making these drumming lesson videos. I know many new beginners will benefit from them greatly and i happen to be one of them :-)

Your lessons motivated me to learn a drum. You are one of the excellent instructor, simple and step by step makes life so easy. Thank you so much :)

Awesome - just starting out - got myself a practise pad and these exercises were just what I was looking for - thanks!

Hi! I’m a veteran musician and fairly new drummer, so I was able to get all of these patterns relatively quickly. However, your teaching is incredible in this, and you did a great job!

This is like the best beginner drum video I seen thanks a lot

Just stumbled on this a week ago and its a gem. Thank you Eliseo

I am a super beginner and I did watch and search a lot for some practices drum pad videos and this one is the best! I hope that maybe you can do some more videos like this! Anyway thank you so much for your videos it helps big time! 😁

I loved it I just started drums I followed you it helps me so much

"That's right you thought we were done, there's actually one more page to do" Many flashbacks of orchestra class :')

Drums for some reason came really natural for me. The first time I sat at a drum kit I was able to play basic beats and 10 mins later did my first tom fill. I played snare drum in band in 6th grade (1998) so I knew basic sticking at least. Anyways, I never practiced and am self taught. Which means I kinda suck especially since my kit was packed away for 8 years, so I'm starting from scratch and going back to a single pedal. This is going to help immensely, thank you. I didn't realize how important it is to always practice with a metronome. I had been speeding through my fills and never noticed.

This was really great and very reassuring!! Makes me excited to keep practicing :D

What a cracking lesson, probably the first one I've actually completed from start to finish! Thank you :-)

Been doing this for a week and def seen improvement! Thanks so much for taking the time to do this for others.

Thank you for this! It's exactly what I needed to start drumming!

thank you so much now in band in my class I show everybody what you taught me

Thank you! I am going to high school marching band next year and I want to play snare drum. I need to improve my counting but my stickings are going well. This is helping a lot thank you very much.🥁😀

Excellent 👌

I did know this stuff but I didn’t know on how to play it right there are so many patterns and I like that, and this practice helped me out a lot. Thank you

Great rudiments. Practiced for a couple of hours. Getting faster. Thanks

I got a bit faster then 2x using this video. Thank you!!

I sat though and played the whole thing. I feel like that helped a lot and improved my stick control and coordination greatly!

I practice with this everyday. I really can't thank u enough for this!!! Thank you so much!! This is soo helpful. Cheers~

Thank you! Last 2018 i've start learning drums and this help a lot. I'm in the 230 bpm in a quarter note.

Best I have seen yet.

Thanks for the video, I’m new to drumming and have been doing this routine for two weeeks and my instructor is impressed with my progress. Mind you I’ve had zero music training.

Yes indeed! This is a big help! Thank you!!

I love this exercise!! I just began playing the drums and have used this exercise for the past 3 days and today I was able to get through the entire exercise without making a mistake!! Thank you!, can you tell me what you have the metronome set at for each exercise as the tempo gets faster?

Thank You Sir 🙏

It really helped me so much I hope u make more videos like this😋

I love this 🙂

Beautiful information

Thank you so much!

Thanks!

The first problem right off the bat I see is that this is a beginners simple warm up exercise and is suppose to be counted as 2 groups of 4 (1234 / 1234) not a in odd time counting of 1 group of 8. Secondly counting in odd time signature only the first syllable of seven is said and not last half of the syllable. The 2nd syllable half of seven would be counted as another note /hit. Also for beginners a click or peep sound they can’t play with so it’s much simpler to actually have a snare drum hit sound. Other than that the lessen is solid.

Great teaching tho! :)

Gracias!!!!

I really love drums. :D

This was so good! Thank you

Thank you sooo much! This has helped me a lot with my coordination

Thanks for the video! 😁

Is it ok if you miss a day here and there? Also after seven days of practicing this do you keep doing it periodically? Or has the foundation been laid so to speak? Thanks for these great videos!
