a half hour practice

Hi,
This is my power half hour practice
1, I run through single stroke, double, paradiddle, single paradiddle - diddle, multiple bounce roll, flam accent, flam tap, flamacue, flam paradiddle, single flammed mill, pata fla fla, swiss army triplet, inverted flam tap,  single drag tap, double drag tap, lesson 25, single drag-a-diddle, drag paradiddle, drag paradiddle 2, single ratamacue.

I practice these from 80 bpm - 216 bpm.  I have found that when things get busy and I don't have time to practice so much, I just do these rudiments with a base and a hi-hat to mark the first of every bar.

Let me know if I can clarify anything or if you would like to add something.
Regards,
K

practice schedule

Hi, I am seeking out and compiling the method of drum practice that you employ.  Let me know what exercises you do, if you practice in a studio, on an electronic kit, if you practice reading or if you just go for a jolly old bash.

Feel free to respond and I look forward to your post.

Drumming news in Sydney

Hi everyone.  I am a drummer who over the past 22 years has been drumming in some way, either as a very interested 11 year old to an adult who has been evolving as a drummer and teacher for a few decades now.  I am located in the eastern suburbs and am available as a teacher, session musician and a helpful person out there for the purpose of musical exploration and evolution.  Be sure to check out my site, though it is still in its construction phases, www.thedrummersportal.com, and my band website, www.kingwithnothrone.com.  

Over and out...
