Beginner Drum Lessons

This page focuses on the drum lesson content that applies to beginner drummers. First, you will want to get started by checking out the how to read sheet music and counting time pages. They will give you an overview of essential lesson basics.

Once you have completed those lessons, you can move on to the first drum beat lesson. It will teach you the first beat every drummer should learn, and two simple variations that will take the pattern to the next level.

Additional Lessons

If those beats are too easy for you - you can always check out the drum lessons homepage to try intermediate and advanced content. That additional material is sure to challenge even an experienced drummer.

It's very important to always be motivated with what you are practicing. Once you have mastered everything available on this website - we recommend you visit your local music store and grab some books and videos with more complex material.

Once you slow down, and stop taking drum lessons - it is very hard to remotivate yourself to continue practicing and learning. Don't let this happen to you.
