Get the fundamentals down in a fun way.
Designed for someone with little or no experience, this beginner drum program with world-renowned instructor Mark Manzcuk begins by teaching you parts of the drums, correct posture, proper stick grip, and coordination exercises. Have fun learning to keep time, count beats, and understanding rhythm. You will build grooves, place fills, and play along with the guitar and bass backing tracks so you can feel what it's like to drive the band!
"Personally this DVD was great for someone like me who was just starting out. Mark goes nice and slow, the examples are fun and easy to learn. I totally recommend this Rock House program to anyone just starting out."
