I keep saying it but it is for good reason . She is the best teacher

Thank you for another great lesson. My double-stroke rolls are coming together.

This is EXACTLY what I needed. Thank you!

I totally agree on starting slow, It helps so much, Clean hits are so important!

Dear Akhamie, you are fantastic teacher, drummer, artist and soul. Thanks for your videos. Baitabraço, dMart.

You are soooo good with your tutorials I have checked out a couple. Thanks for sharing your gift. I am def inspired to get into the rudiments of drumming. Excited!

Hey, I want to congratulate you for your video and the care you have spent to explanation of details. I consider your video and your explanations are the clearer I have been through on KZfaq (...and English is not may native language...). I have started to apply your advises and also advises on fingers usage. Thanks again for your time and and your love for sharing.

Great video. Thanks x

cool!

Love your channel. God bless

Very helpful thanks

God bless Girl , xxxxxxxxx

❤wow

Thank you I something to practice again love continue to be good and safe may God's blessings upon you love you🙏❤🤗😄🥁

I like the hand technique that shows close up how to use the fingers.thats great info

I am SOOO blessed to have watched a few of your videos and already my stick work has finally gotten somewhere! I love the slow and controlled method!!! I get so anxious when other drum KZfaq videos start somewhat slow and then they’re off to the races while I’m left in the dust. You’re amazing!!!! PTL!!!!🥰

Another great lesson, i gotta get with your program. Ive got an old TAMA rockstar and it's a great kit. I love your kit that is really something special.

Great stuff, Thank You!!!! Very Cool Tama Kit!!

Great teaching. Appreciate the lesson keep up the great work.

Hi Cool video! I’m very thankful for you this year! I’m also grateful for your drumming content! Happy new year ❤️

Your awesome love the details will try to implement

It's been about a week and a half.... I have made more progress with my double stroke roll in 11 days than I have in months. I am now extremely thankful to say I can play clean double stroke rolls at 150bpm 16ths. Thank you for this. Things have started clicking. If you have any more drum line rolls please do share.

It's so hard when you try to play super slow you just want to play fast but it's an essential to play these slow with good technique and then speed will come

Thank you.. this is a great lesson that I am going to have my daughter start doing. She is to lossey goosey with her right hand thumb and index finger so the stick is all over the place. Love your instruction and attention to detail.

How it should be done ! Happy new year Akhamie music

I love the fact you go right into your tutorials and not talk so much

my god those drums are .....I dont even have words, a tama star kit in mint....whooooooo.....and yes they sound freakin great!!! Are you a tama artist now? or did you just purchase that kit, imagine that set ya back a lil , worth it though

A great exercise. My approach is that the down stroke is controlled by gravity. ( let the stick fall ) totally relax and let the weight of the stick and your wrist dictate the velocity of your down stroke while keeping a semi firm grip. The upstroke is where you use energy to lift the stick and match the velocity of the down stroke. This gives you balance between the strokes and a better sound. So when playing either a single stroke or a double stroke , your muscles are relaxing ( on the down stroke ) and contracting ( on the upstroke ). Relax/ contract. It also allows you to play much quieter and with better dynamic control. Remember, you are not playing in a drum line outside but on a kit .

Great lesson. How do you get both strokes to be solid and strong?

Thanks for the detailed breakdown, I really appreciate the details. Does the speed eventually come from the addition of the arm movement and rebound combination?

Really enjoy your lessons! Have to ask about the fulcrum. You don't appear to have a "gap" between thumb and forefinger as many talk about, and your fulcrum seems to be between thumb and first segment of your forefinger up near the knuckle. Is this an accurate reading of where your fulcrum is? Thanks again for your excellent videos!

I'm struggling a lot, should I do it slow at the beginning or faster for how long everyday, I can go faster maybe 80 or 100 but I can use the fingers or rebound yet I don't know why, my teacher said you have a cast on your wrist, I'm lost, thank you, appreciated!

Good video. It doesn't look like you respond to any comments or feedback. That would be a good thing if you were to do so though? Anyway, Best wishes! P.S. You tune and play your Tama's like marching band quads.

I noticed for the first time you hold the sticks way down to the bottom. I am way up near the fulcrum. I will try this instead.

Hi do you do lessons?

Rebound.
