Beginner training plan
Your first lessonTeach them names of the drum set. How to hold the drum stick properly so they can achieve a rebound, like a basketball, and to prevent any injury!
Lesson 2-3Teach them a rudiment, most likely a “Flam” apply the first two beats on the bass drum and let them rock out to the world’s most famous drum beat by Queen, “We Will Rock You”!
Lesson 4-10Teach them the note values and how music applies to mathematics. Once note values are understood and can be played on a pad, then I would move them to the drum set and show the student Beat #1 playing 8th notes on the high hat, 2 & 4 on the snare drum and 1 and 3 on the bass drum. Once the beat has been able to be played, I would pick a song at the suitable tempo that they could play along with!
Lesson 11+Teach them how all music is made up of 4 bar phrases. How to play a drum fill to set up the beginning of a phrase. Snare drum reading, drum rudiments to help improve speed, control and endurance. Have the student pick out their favorite song and teach them the beat and the arrangement of the song, so they can not wait to play every day!🤩
