Love all your videos. I can’t help smiling every time I watch. 😁 You are awesome 🤩

Paradiddles along with other rudiments add so much to kit grooves and fills. I learned most of the rudiments in my teens playing snare in a drum corps. It wasn’t until I was in my 40s (longer time ago than I care to reveal) how useful they are on a kit. You are a terrific instructor. Wish you and KZread had been around in my 20’s and 30’s when I was simply playing eighth note rock beats and swing beats on the kit. Keep up the work sharing great drumming techniques along with your brilliant sense of humor with the rest of the world.

One of the best grooves that I ever heard a drummer play in my band was with a paradiddle involving a cowbell... sick!

Two great examples of paradiddle grooves/beats to check out : Ian Paice (Deep Purple) "You fool no one" and Neil Peart (Rush) a para-paradiddle in the middle section of "Free Will"

That is pretty cool. I’m new to drumming and my paradiddles suck at the moment. This will give me a new way to practice them. Thanks!

She is 100% correct. A little advice, start slow playing all four strokes. (R-L-R-R, L-R-L-L). Relax and repeat for several minutes without speeding up. Get so comfortable with them and recite something that you 100% know, like your address. When you see that you can keep the sticking pattern intact without thinking about it, then you can start accelerating. A good teacher can show you how to go from 4 strokes to 3, then eventually ONE.

Yes! Another guitarist/keyboardist checking out the drum techniques and grooves. Really like your teaching style, a few more weeks and i'm going to take a lesson. What I've seen so far has already helped. Thanks!

Amazing bite size lesson!! Thank you Emma!

Wait WTF, where did the 2E come from? I get 1 and 2 and ect, but 2E😮. I decided to learn drums 6 months ago ( aged 59 ), just learning to do fills, and this is great, BIG THANKS.

Great lesson

Thank you!

Fantastic tutorials... You deliver your videos with a 'can do' approach... Could you tell me what sticks you use and do you maintain that a heavier stick are better particularly when playing doubles,.yours sound beautiful.... Mine suck 😔😏

Thanks for this Emma, it is awesome‼️🎄✌️

I've been waiting for this. Sick iz da wurd. Nice

I mostly play paradiddles on grooves, and not much on fills, and I think it's weird. I found out your videos, and I really enjoy them. Why don't you give your own name for the channel, I wonder? Keep up your good work! Thanks for the lesson!

I love the way you teach drumming, and I am also subscribed to your KZread channel, BTW, do you use the Roland eDrum,. If you don't mind, what model is it? I have Roland TD25K, it doesn't sound as good as yours, thanks, and happy drumming

So entertaining

Finally a female drummer shows how to teach music effectively, with a style utterly bereft of irrelevant piffle and trifling minutiae - She delivers the nitty gritty of drum kit playing in a clipped, humorous fashion which really does make percussion education a whole lot of fun...

Ok I’m a guitarist ..shock Horror! But I had drum lessons for 2 years Firstly I recommend ANY musician to get drum lessons It gives you such an improved perspective in the placement of accents for every instrument and how simple motifs can produce incredible results at different speeds with different accents Second . Love your teaching style ,, needless to say I’m Back on my kit cursing for 3 years no practice 😂😂😂😂 Thank you

Gotta disagree. Drums is a very unusual instrument where you can develop without any instruction at all. If you just read the George Stone book and apply that everywhere you can you will find all the grooves you need. It’s very time consuming but that’s drums.

Yo! I’ve seen the shorts, vids. Fuckin love you. You break it down for a tardy lad like myself. Fire delivery- but such a (I can’t think of the word I want but it means brain)- cerebral- maybe that’s it just like completely think AND feel. I drink. Love you. Make money please and don’t stop so I can practice on my lil kit and make life sound better one click at a time. You’re the best. Thank you so much

Hi hat chicks on the downbeats and kick the diddles!

Careful now, all you new folks - if you start infusing your playing with paradiddles, you might end up addicted. You could spend the next thirty-odd years playing stuff that sounds kind of paradiddly whenever you sit down to play. I mean...er...maybe. So they tell me. Not that I, er, no, not me...
