Emmanuelle Caplette isn’t just known for her incredible hand technique and speed, her effortless playing style, her festival and TV appearances and her drumming awards…she’s also instantly recognizable by her huge smile. And why shouldn’t she be? Drumming is fun! That joy has become part of her brand and it’s baked into her newly released, aptly-titled drum book called Smile! You’re Drumming. While the content is mostly rudiment-based, you can (and should!) apply all of it on the drum kit. In this full free drum lesson, Emmanuelle demos some of her book’s core exercises and how you can take them from pad practice to gig-ready grooves and fills. She deconstructs rudiments in brand new ways and combines drum corps and drum set concepts into practical tools any drummer can use. You’ll learn how to keep your strokes consistent, improve your fluidity, speed and control, and much more! Ready to make rudiments fun? If you have the book, follow along with the lesson!
