Drum Lesson 3 - Heel Toe Technique: Hi Hat
Here is a technique that will enable you to play open & closed hi-hat with just your foot. This will free up both hands to play other voices on your drum set. The video demonstrates two ways to do the technique. I prefer the 2nd method because it is easier for me to achieve balance. Also, it is physically easier (for me). Try both methods and see which way works best for you.
