Rock Drumming Fundamentals

Master essential rock drumming techniques, including beats, bass patterns, and expressive fills. Learn to dynamically engage with song structure and develop the skills to confidently play and interpret rock music.

Advanced Drumming Techniques: A Progressive Approach

This lesson series systematically enhances drumming skills. It starts with motion exercises to improve timing and coordination, followed by the “Rosetta Stone of 2 & 4” for mastering 4/4 backbeat patterns in rock drumming. Later lessons cover “Ghost Notes” for adding depth to grooves and conclude with “Natural Motions” to refine dynamic hi-hat and cymbal techniques.

Advanced Rock Drumming Techniques and Musicality

This advanced drumming course sharpens technical skills and musicality. It covers ear training for stickings, six-stroke rolls, shuffle rhythms, and hand-foot combinations. The course also explores emotional expression in drumming and Gary Chaffee’s linear drumming concepts.

Mastering Rock Drumming: Creativity, Techniques, and Philosophies

In the final weeks, this advanced drumming course sharpens creativity and technique. Learn groove-crafting, triplet orchestrations, and “Tuning & Rhythmic Bending” for dynamic effects. Master brush techniques, solo construction, and Todd’s favorite licks, ending with insights to align your drumming with your career goals.

It feels like life is now unlocked for all that it has to offer musically. It’s amazing to realize all the possibilities we have when playing the drums! Todd gave interesting tips that helped me understand how my body works, particularly when I learned that the moment we change the sticking, we change the melody. You will enjoy the ride with Todd. With his help, reaching your goals will be easier.

I was skeptical about online instruction, but this has made me a believer. I’m now looking at drumming as a continuous learning journey as opposed to an ‘instant cure.’ Todd takes a no fluff, straight-to-the-point, no-magic-pill approach, which I really appreciate! I love the fact that you can continuously reference previous lessons, slow or speed up tempos, and see the instructor break it all down.

Rock Drumming Masterclass was a breath of fresh air. I was squeezing too much on the sticks before, and fixing that has made such a difference. After 25 years as a full time drumming professional, I’m already using the techniques learned here with my own students. The course is wonderfully conceived, well produced, and highly informative. It’s given me a new perspective!

Step by step, Todd ‘peels the onion’. Step by step, each week builds on the prior week. He comes off as a relatable teacher who's been where we are and remembers that - not someone who’s looking down his nose at us. I now have a road map to follow to get better. That's the simple truth. Rock Drumming Masterclass is the gift that will keep on giving.
