Hand Speed: What Every Drummer Needs To Know

Download the sheet music for this lesson here: https://www.stephensdrumshed.com/hand...

This is one of the drumming topics I get asked the most about. Hand speed. How to play the drums faster.

In our endless search for speed, we can chase the wrong things. I have never diagnosed a hand speed problem that did not relate to a breakdown in the underlying technique's needed to perform the drumming motions. This isn't a popular answer though because it's not an easy fix.

In this lesson I give you an exercise that you can use with the Moeller stroke.
