Turn Your Paradiddle Into a Groove 🥁 Beginner Drum Lesson Step by Step

Описание: Think paradiddles are just practice exercises? Think again. 🥁

In this beginner drum lesson, we’ll take a simple paradiddle (RLRR LRLL) and turn it into a real drum set groove, step by step.

If you’ve been practicing your paradiddle on the pad and wondering how to apply it on the kit, this lesson will help you make that connection. We’ll move slowly, build it together, and focus on understanding how the sticking translates around the drums.

In this lesson, you’ll learn:
• A quick review of the paradiddle sticking
• How to re-orchestrate it around the drum set
• How to move it between snare, floor tom, ride, and hi-hat
• How to count it in 16th notes (1 e & a)
• How to place the bass drum on beats 1 and 3
• How to build it into a full beginner groove
• How to add extra kick drum notes for a stronger feel

This lesson is perfect for beginner drummers and adult learners who want to improve coordination, timing, and groove in a clear and supportive way.

Rudiments are not just technical exercises. They are the foundation of creative drum grooves and fills. When you understand how to apply them on the kit, everything starts to connect.

For extra practice, try playing this groove along with “Why Can’t We Live Together” by Timmy Thomas to help you settle into that steady R&B feel and strengthen your internal timing.

Take your time. Pause when you need to. Practice slowly and let the groove feel natural in your hands and feet.
Keep showing up. Keep building. Keep drumming. 🥁✨
