as a pianist i recognise that he is using a marker but i dont think this is a great way of practicing hand independence for a piano for drums it is a good way to practice but not for piano. for piano you will need to practice with fingers and not just your hands you might be able to play with both hands but not with all of your fingers thats why i prefer this method. the link below ua-cam.com/video/KsVNrui4nbc/v-deo.html
@@kali6815 you would normally have to play an instrument or sing to understand this, but i’ll try so there is something called a measure in sheet music. the most common measure length is four over four. this means four beats in a measure. there are half notes, whole notes, eight notes, quarter notes, etc. a half not would be two beats. two quarter notes. you can think of this mathematically if you need to. thing of a measure as 1 cup. it could have 4 quarters, 2 halves, you know. a half note has two beats. quarter has one beat. a half note sounds a bit like a heartbeat with one vessel. these are the notes that are in this video. they are saying that 200 quarter notes is equal to 100 half notes. and that it would be easier to state 100 half notes. hope this cleared a little bit up, sorry for not being to good at explaining im more of a visual learner hahah

Polyrhythms are super difficult to play because of how unnatural they are.

You could maybe write it down in columns and tap with the finger the beat falls on reading from top to bottom or in reverse. At some point you'll be able to easily imagine the pattern and tap along it from mind
As pianist I gotta say at some point you will at least need 2/3, 3/4, 3/5 and 4/5. These are still all very doable imo. Its still a lot of practice ofc
You not actually getting your hands to do different things to do simultaneously. You just should figure out how to make it one thing. For example for 2/3 instead of counting 4 count 6 and do 1(LR) 2(_) 3(L) 4(R) 5(L) 6(_). For 3/4 count to 12: 1(LR) 2(_) 3(_) 4(R) 5(L) 6(_) 7(R) 8(_) 9(L) 10(R) 11(_) 12(_)
