If you decide to comprehend the world of music through a drum kit, you can immediately consider yourself a black sheep. Despite the fact that the concept of notes and keys also exists in drumming, the instrument "works" on intuition. The only thing you need to master this instrument is the ability to feel the rhythm and a little instruction.

Instructions
Step 1
Buy a book explaining the basics. You only need one book to understand how the drumming process works and to learn the basic stances and movements. All of them are approximately the same and differ only in the style of presentation and the order of topics. So choose one of your favorites and read it carefully.
Step 2
Begin beating rhythms. As soon as you learned from the book what is called and what you have to do in general, you should start working out the rhythm. Buy a metronome to help you. It doesn't matter what model it is and how much it will cost. Anyone will do for a start. Connect headphones to it so that the sound of the drums does not drown out the metronome, and start playing the rhythms available to you on absolutely any part of the drum kit.
Step 3
Learn to include your leg in this process. The bass drum that you hit with the pedal is one of the hardest to master. Try to count the beats separately for the main part and additionally keep counting for the bass drum in your head. Extensive training will give the desired result.
Step 4
Watch tutorial videos and repeat what you see. On the Internet, you will find tons of videos where professional drummers play parts from famous songs or just beautiful drum parts. Review and repeat after them, this will allow you to fill your hand and get used to the full game, and not just beating the drums.
Step 5
Buy a training rig for home workouts. Many people are faced with the problem of storing drums. And also, not all neighbors will treat your lessons with understanding. A rubber training rig will help with both problems. It does not create any noise at all, and takes up very little space. At the initial stage, this is the best option.
