Around the Drums in 80 Ways
A System for Expanding Movement Around the Drum Set
Most drummers practice stickings on a pad — but struggle to move naturally around the drum set.
This course focuses on solving that.
What This Course Is
A collection of 80 movement-based drum set patterns designed to expand how you move and think around the kit.
Each pattern is shown as a played example, giving you ideas you can explore and develop further.
What You Will Explore
The course includes patterns based on:
• 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
• advanced coordination challenges
• creative and unusual orchestrations
Core Idea
All movement around the drum set can be approached through simple directions:
• forward & backward
• side to side
• circular movement
These patterns show different ways to apply those ideas in practice.
Important to Know
This is not a technique course.
There are no detailed breakdowns of hand mechanics or stick control.
If every pattern was explained step by step, the course would turn into hours of technical instruction — which is not the goal here.
Instead, the focus is on ideas, movement, and possibilities.
Who This Is For
Best suited for drummers who:
• already understand basic sticking concepts
• want to move more freely around the kit
• are comfortable exploring ideas independently
What You Get
• 80 drum set movement patterns
• played demonstrations (no step-by-step breakdowns)
• a system for exploring movement across the kit
