About 10 Practice Pad Exercises
These 10 practice pad exercises are redesigned and edited exercises from the ebook Beginners Drum Book 2023. I have designed these to be useful for reading on a mobile screen as well as for any other device. It also looks good printed out.
- Can be used as warm ups or for drum lesson content
- Many of the exercises can be played slowly by beginners and faster by intermediate players
- Use with and without a metronome
- For practice pad or snare drum
Beginner drummers should be able to learn most of the exercises slowly and perhaps learn some things along the way such as flams, accents and up and down strokes.
Intermediate players can push the speed and work with a metronome. Some of the exercises can also be transferred to different parts of the drum kit to extend the exercises and explore using them creatively, such as moving accents to toms or adding foot patterns with stepped hi hat and bass drums, or even playing them with feet instead using double kick pedal.
