    A common question I'm asked by my students is "What are some good workouts to help with speed and independence?"
    I've put together three of my favorite go-to concepts for building these aspects of your drumming. These might be hard to swallow at first, but just add one piece at a time! If you put in the work, the results will be well worth the effort.

    I think one of the most important things in this video is the idea of getting your feet used to doing things without your hands being involved. I assume most people are like me and suck at practicing, so when we do, we use all our limbs every time. Factually, this just creates muscle memory of our limbs always having to work concurrently rather than separate and independent. Thanks, Jared. I hadn't considered this until I watched this video, and I'm certain it will evolve my practice.

    Here is a comment that I just posted on my Facebook page that I wanted to share here as well. The UA-cam community - although harsh at time - has been incredible for me and my success as an educator, thank you!
    -
    My Independence Made Easy course has been going on for a few weeks and I have never experienced such a massive amount of student engagement. In all my years doing this, we've released so many different types of educational products, but this one struck a chord.
    What blows my mind is how the lessons have actually motivated students to practice harder and more than ever. The stories I'm hearing are just crazy. I'm so excited, so proud, and so stoked to continue pushing with these students to help them reach their goals.
    With the internet, there are endless choices for drum lessons, but I am so very grateful that these students chose me. Thank you all so much! - Jared Falk

      We don't hear many people talking about left foot independence
      - AND - consistency because we don't see many doing it. It's mind bendingly more difficult than blending in with the vast majority of drummers who have not toughed it through and begun to experience drumming nirvana.
      Even when you see the great's play, the left foot ( of a right hander ) is often spotty, especially while soloing. Can you please offer some examples of players who give as much importance to the "red headed step child of limbs" as they do the ever more popular RH, LH and RF? Thanks!

    Hi Jared. I´m a long time fan of your work and I would like congratulate you, your team and the guest drummers (some of them drum legends) who has been teaching all this important lessons, concepts and experiences. Once you used a "samba pattern" on this lesson (even the video is about independence, not samba rhythm) I remembered ask you to invite some brazilian drummers as Kiko Freitas. It would be great ! Anyway good luck, success and keep the good work !!! Regards from Brazil.

    I've been playing for 25 years and I already incorporate a lot of this in my playing without really knowing what I'm doing. Being able to go back to some of these basics and being able to read music notation from my marching band days has has taken me to a place I wish I had been when I was touring with a band out of Orange County, CA. 15 years ago. I'm 40 years old now and just bought my first DW kit. Let me tell you.. another year of just going back and really studying and focusing on independence and I'll be ready to take any gig and start playing multiple styles. Thank you drumeo for taking me to that next level!

      I had the same issue. What I learned is you really Really REALLY have to practice slow a consistently. A lot of time we’ll try practicing something and then it gets to hard, and when it’s hard it’s usually not fun, so we do something different that’s more fun. Take 10 minutes everyday to not have any fun on the kit just trying to get that hard practice in. Do it

    • @jimmerframe4354
      @jimmerframe4354 3 роки тому +5

      My coordination is terrible, but gets somehow worse while I'm on a drum set.
      If my legs and arms had brain cells, my right arm would be fairly smart, my left arm would be running on a singular braincell and trying to copy my right arm, but failing because it's just so damn slow. My right leg would be dumber than my right arm, but smarter than my left leg.
      Tl;dr: the limbs on the left side of my body share a singe braincell, while the limbs on the right side of my body are about average.

  • @yutongsun2405
    @yutongsun2405 7 років тому +1

    Hi Jared, great lesson! One question I've always had is sometimes when a beat requires a lot of independence(different things for each limb), I'd always have to play through it a bunch of times until I figure out how the placement of hits from each limb fit in with each other(rh-lh-rh-rf-bh-rf, etc.), and can't really hear it as right hand in triplets and left foot in quarters, for example. Is that a bad/beginner way to approach that? Should I try to think of each limb on its own, even if that means I'd have a much harder time playing it? Thanks in advance!

    • @hehhehdummy
      @hehhehdummy 6 років тому

      Yutong Sun For anyone else that comes across this question. I'm quite new, but the way I see it is that this is not an issue as long as you keep practicing the rhythm so much that it becomes muscle memory. Whatever mental trick you gotta do to get it down is fune because once it's muscle memory you don't have to focus as hard. With that relaxation comes the mental freedom to start "feeling" the groove. That's when you get an idea of the actual timing going on. I really enjoy having picked up the drums because of the A-Ha! moments.

    • @chuckfyock424
      @chuckfyock424 5 років тому

      A very good way of learning difficult beats is to write the beats out is the way it is illustrated in several of my old drum set books. You can either draw a dash line to represent the individual beats or dash lines to connect hand/foot strokes which are played together.
      Either way is good and it will show where the subdivisions within a pattern appear, or where the connected notes are played together.
      It's a lot like what you have written above, but without musical notation I would have no way of knowing what the rhythm is supposed to sound like.
      And...no matter what method you use to learn a complicated pattern, time and repetition are always a requirement.
      I find the dash line method most helpful.

    Maybe a silly question, but on average, how much time does a committed drummer (serious drummer that practices at least 4 hrs a day) take to have good timing and groove (which i think depends a lot on independence)... would you say 3, 4, 5 years?... thx heaps
