The first pattern is in 2\/4, you play two notes on each drum moving down to the floor tom and then back to the snare. Each following pattern uses the exact same format. You\u2019ll start with groups of two, then move to four, six, and eights.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6038 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musora.com\/musora-cdn\/image\/quality=85\/https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/19141206\/Untitled-18.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"907\" height=\"851\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/19141206\/Untitled-18.jpg 907w, https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/19141206\/Untitled-18.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/19141206\/Untitled-18.jpg 768w, https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/19141206\/Untitled-18.jpg 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 907px) 100vw, 907px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When practicing this as a sequence or individually, you\u2019ll notice that one of the hardest parts is to re-start the pattern back on the snare. Since you have to come over from the floor tom it can cause a traffic jam between the right and left hands. Just start slowly with this at 60 bpm and speed up at increments of 5 bpm.<\/p>\n<h4>Practice each exercise individually for 5 minutes, then play them in sequence for 10 minutes.<\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Get The Full Series! \u00bb Download the Sheet Music \u00bb Okay, it\u2019s not a very good title but hopefully I caught your attention and you are reading this wondering what I was thinking.
