This could be used as a follow up course for ” Drum Like A Rock Star” Jr High Edition level 1. In this ongoing course, students will continue to learn basic beginning patterns. These patterns will consist of rock beats popular in today’s music. Along with these, there will also be a series of hand and foot combination patterns used to gain basic mobility around the drums. Not only are these fundamentals needed to perform a piece of music, but also aid in the overall development of the student’s confidence on the instrument.  Basic hand technique, proper grip, and posture will all be explored as well. Students will receive PDFs with exercises and practice suggestions that will be addressed during class. Each week will present a new pattern both in song beat form, and exercise form, that the student is to practice on their own for the next meeting. Each meeting will begin with a presented warm up for the first 5 minutes. Upon completion we will move to the pattern(s) of the week. I will offer up a question and answer time during each class as well to ensure clarity of topic discussed. This class will be fun and educational! Students will be playing for each other while learning. Must have drums. Basic experience needed for this class, should already be able to read basic rhythms and drum notation.
