Have you always wanted to learn how to play drums? If your excuses have included “I don’t have time” or “I don’t have a drum set at home,” you’re in luck: this 10-minute video lesson will get you started quicker than you can say “Ringo.”

We’re starting from the beginning. No theory. No technique. By the end of this video, you’ll be able to play a simple beat and drum fill.

Why play drums? Whether you’re doing it for fun, for the health benefits, to pick up a new hobby, or to become a rock star, the instrument is a great outlet for all of these things.

00:44 - Getting Started - Grip
If you have drumsticks, hold them with a nice relaxed grip. This is the most important thing to know for now. Keep your hands loose!

1:22 - Playing Your First Beat
This is where the fun begins! Using your kick, hi-hat and snare, Jared teaches how to count, feel and play your first beat.

6:05 - Playing Your First Fill
Drum fills are used to build anticipation or release tension. Listen for them in your favourite tunes, such as snare rolls in AC/DC songs or that big tom fill in “Wipe Out.”

Congratulations – you just learned your first rock beat and your first fill! This is just the beginning; when it comes to beats and fills, the sky’s the limit. At this rate, you’ll be playing all your favourite tunes and jamming in no time.
