Busy Footwork & Polyrhythmic Sextuplet Drum Fill!

Busy footwork, bounce groove, and heel slaps—discover how to count, control, and nail this syncopated sextuplet idea.

This week’s Drums By Liz lesson breaks down a polyrhythmic sextuplet drum fill—a challenging but exciting mix of busy BD and HH footwork. You will learn a bounce feel groove with incorporated hi-hat heel slaps. I walk you through step by step, showing you the proper technique for consistent, clean hi-hat heel slaps.

The concept is built as 1½ measures of groove plus a ½ measure drum fill. The fill is intense, pushing you to refine smooth coordination between the hi-hat (HH) and bass drum (BD). We’ll go slowly, working through different counting scenarios because counting is everything. In over 47 years of teaching, I’ve found this: fix the mental side first, and the physical follows—100% of the time.

If you rush without counting, timing, and control, this groove can easily fall apart. But with the right mindset and guidance, you’ll nail it. I also show you easy ways to stack ideas on so you can build creativity and confidence in your playing.

Don’t be intimidated—especially if you’re an intermediate drummer. With clear explanation and logical step-by-step guidance, this complex groove and fill are within your reach. The goal is not just to be “good,” but to push toward being an extraordinary drummer.

Drumming is mathematical.
Drumming is infinite.
What a God-given gift it is to explore this incredible instrument!

Thank you again for tuning in to another Drums By Liz lesson!

With love, light, abundant blessings—
and as always… Happy Drumming!😊🥁⭐️🙏🏻🌎🇺🇸❤️
