IN 30 DAYS, YOU'LL BE ABLE TO…

Sit down and know what to practice

Jazz can feel like a completely different language, even if you already know your way around the drums. In 30-Day Jazz, Ulysses Owens Jr. gives you a guided daily workout so you’re not guessing what to play, how to count it, or where to begin.

Build the coordination jazz actually requires

You’ll start with foundational swing patterns on the ride cymbal, then add snare comping, bass drum comping, and four-limb coordination piece by piece. By the end, you’ll have the control to play syncopated grooves with more independence, feel, and musicality.

Play with real jazz form and confidence

This isn’t just a pile of dry exercises. You’ll apply what you’re learning with a live jazz combo and work through real jazz forms like 12-bar blues, rhythm changes, and ballads, so you can comp with confidence and feel like you’re actually playing the tune.
