Warming Up at the drum set .
1) What is it that you actually do when you warm up
for a drum set practice session?
2) Do you just play what feels comfortable and go from there?
3) Do you warm up your hands and not your feet?
4) Do you use the entire drum set for the warm up?
1st insight ... Right Hand / Left Hand
2nd insight ... When moving around the drum set, one moves
in a left-to-right and right-to-left line of motion. The designed motion
patterns from my book, "Motion Patterns For The Drum Set," will develop
strength for both the left and right sides of the body. As a result, one will
feel more comfortable leading with the left as well as with the right hand
and will be able to move with a greater sense of ease and freedom, along
with less restriction, given the physical aspects of the instrument.
