Drum stick technique pdf6/15/2023 Let me first make a general statement and say that good drumming is less about the specific technique you use and more about how you use it, and there are examples of great drummers and strong opinions on both sides of this grip issue. I want to address this topic from my perspective as a teacher. As a teacher, especially with young and developing students, I believe there is really only one choice.Įfficient and effective drumming technique (grip and stroke) is about getting your body to move comfortably, naturally, injury- and pain-free, and in a way that will not limit your self-expression. It’s also about holding the sticks in a way that will produce an efficient stroke that takes maximum advantage of the physics of the drum, heads, sticks, angles, and so on. This may all sound very technical…because it is. Sometimes we think of the grip as being a binary choice-either traditional or matched.
