Around the Drums in 80 Ways

A Complete System for Moving Around the Drum Set

Most drummers practice stickings on a pad.

But when they move to the drum set, everything suddenly feels awkward, stiff, or random.

The reason is simple:

Pad practice teaches hand technique, but it does not teach movement around the drum set.

Around the Drums in 80 Ways is designed to solve that problem.

This course shows you how to turn simple stickings into musical movement across the entire drum set.

Instead of isolated exercises, you will learn a structured system that helps you move naturally between drums, develop coordination, and expand your vocabulary around the kit.


Inside the Course

This system explores how different sticking ideas can travel across the drum set.

Inside the course you will learn how to apply:

• Single stroke movement systems
• Double stroke orchestrations across the kit
• Paradiddle-based movement patterns
• Paradiddle variations and combinations
• Linear coordination between hands and feet
• 4-limb linear systems
• Crossover patterns and movement pathways
• Musical phrase building around the entire kit
• Advanced coordination challenges
• Creative and unusual orchestrations

In total, the course contains 80 practical patterns designed to help you move freely and musically around the drum set.


Why This System Works

Most drum lessons teach individual patterns.

This course teaches movement principles.

Once you understand how these patterns travel across the kit, you can start creating your own variations and developing a much more natural flow around the drums.


Who This Course Is For

This course is ideal for drummers who want to:

• break out of repetitive drum set vocabulary
• move more freely around the kit
• develop better coordination between surfaces
• turn rudiments into musical drum set phrases
• expand their creative drum set vocabulary

The material is best suited for intermediate and advanced drummers, but motivated players of all levels can benefit from the concepts.
