Learn Jazz Drumming

Learn jazz without feeling lost at the kit.

You already know how to play drums, but jazz feels like a different language.

With its syncopation, subtlety, and swing, it can be tough to know where to begin.

30-Day Jazz bridges that gap with daily guided practice that builds your coordination, vocabulary, and feel, so you can bring your existing skills into a whole new style with confidence.

Week 1 - Foundations of Jazz Drumming

Learn foundational jazz patterns, starting with simple swing rhythms on the ride cymbal. Develop coordination with hands while playing along with your right hand.

Week 2 - Lock In The Swing

This week, you’ll start shaping the heart of the jazz feel, you’ll comp with the snare, lock into a quarter-note pulse, and develop a smooth swing groove.

Week 3 - Add the Bass Drum & Start the Conversation

Add bass drum comping to your swing groove, develop coordination between all four limbs, and start playing “conversation” patterns that lay the groundwork for interactive jazz drumming.

Week 4 - Play the Form

Put it all together. You’ll navigate jazz standards like the 12-bar blues, rhythm changes, and jazz ballads while using everything you've built so far to comp with confidence, shape the form, and sound like you're really playing the tune.
