Download BOTH exercise packets with a forward and breakdown for FREE right now!
In order to get more quality percussion education out to as many students and teachers as possible, you can now download my free collection of snare drum exercises that come at two playing levels: the Essentials and Christian's Way.
The Essentials are what I would deem to be the most essential exercises that every percussionist should know. They are universal, in their simplest form, and are recognizable by most percussionists. They breakdown some of the most basic techniques necessary to be a successful snare drummer. Being able to nail these exercises give you the freedom to play so much more!
Christian's Way are for those people who know all the Essentials and are looking for a way to spice up their usual warm-up routine. These are exercises that I personally use and enjoy because they focus on the skills I want to develop more and are engaging to play. They put fun twists on common exercises and skills that will keep you on your toes.
Both resources have a forward about how to approach the collection, breakdowns of every exercise, examples for more variation, and recommended starting tempos. They are perfect for individual practice or for classroom settings. Download it now for free! If you find this resource helpful for individual practice or useful when teaching, let me know!
