The PATAFLAFLA is one of the more complex rudiments being practice by most (or all) marching percussionists. In this lesson, the PATAFLAFLA is broken down for better understanding.
Check out this awesome lesson explaining and breaking down the rudiment, the single ratamacue.
Here's a great lesson on a basic rudiment, the Flamacue.
Here's another lesson involving ghost notes in a groove. Today we're going to phrase them as 16th note triplets...pretty cool sounding stuff! Not to mention a great workout for the left hand. Hope you enjoy.
In this lesson, he talks about being more creative when thinking about what your playing. He shows how you can analyse a basic rudiment such as a paradiddle and make a cool rhythm out of it.

This is Todd Walker,a Florida resident who operates a drum studio out of the Port St. Lucie area. In addition to being a session/studio player and instructor Todd performs with one of Florida's most premier groups Bobby and the Blister's. You can find out more about Todd by checking out his website and some more of these great instructional vids! Now we get to learn some more odd time madness as Todd shows us a groove in 5/4. I love how he just breaks everything down in such a simple fashion, it's very easy to understand whether you have the vocabulary or not. What's really cool about this groove is that it starts out sounding like a funk groove, but later as he speeds it up it turns into a breakbeat. Tell me what you think. http://toddwalkerdrumstudio.com
This lesson expands on Triplet Warm Up #1 that we first learned in the Practice Room. Here we're going to begin to explore it around the kit. Hope you enjoy it!!
Here's Keith giving his very first lesson on his application of the 7 Stroke Roll to the kit.
Hello Billy Ashbaugh here with DrummerConnection.com and today I'm going to share a fill with you. This is a fill that I've showed a lot of students over the years and a lot of them really seem to gravitate toward it and like it a lot, so I'm going to break it down and show you what it is. Basically, it starts with a flam one beat one with the right hand on the floor tom and the left hand on the snare. Now this fill is phrased in 16th notes, so the flam is the downbeat and you're going to play the “1 e &” figure, meaning the first three 16th notes. Now here again I want you to experiment with the sticking, it's up to you. You can either go Flam Left Right. Or you can go Flam Right Left. OK, I'm gonna let you here this thing in a fill setting. OK, here's another version for you. Keep the hands just like you have them. Remember we played the first three 16th notes, the “1 e &”. We left the “a” silent. A version you could come up with... more...
