Find a Drum Teacher in East Ryde

The 80/20 rule means that 80% of your drumming progress comes from just 20% of what you practise.

This translates to prioritising the essentials:

• Locking in with a click track
• Basic rudiments like single strokes, double strokes, and paradiddles
• Versatile rhythms you'll use in 80% of songs

Rather than learning dozens of complex fills, master a handful of versatile patterns first.

A private drum teacher can help you identify your personal 20% and structure your practice for faster progress.
