I’ve been a musician for quite a while but finally bought myself a drum kit.

As a guitarist I know not all practice is good practice, or at least productive practice. For example, practicing scales up and down the neck will help learn those scales… but can make soloing sound super robotic.

Was hoping to get some advice for being productive while practicing rudiments, but any other practice advice is welcome too :)

    This guy did some really good, quick intro videos to a whole load of rudiments a few years ago. Might have to scroll back a bit, but I found them really useful https://youtube.com/@SachaKDrums

    And Stick Control by George Lawrence Stone is the book for rudiments + a bit more. Can’t recommend it enough
