Learning to play drums might look difficult, but it’s easier than you think. And you can start playing drum beats more quickly than you think, too!

In this video, Domino Santantonio will show you how to play one of the most popular beginner drum beats of all time, then coach you through a 5-minute drumming ‘workout’ as you build the beat into something you can play confidently.

It’s like a fitness video, but with drums!

Here are the five steps to learning a basic drum beat:

1. Hi-hat and bass drum together
With your right hand on the hi-hat and your right foot on the bass drum (left hand/left foot if you’re a lefty), hit both the hi-hat and bass drum together.

2. Hi-hat and snare drum together
With your right hand on the hi-hat and your left-hand on the snare drum (or in reverse if you’re drumming open-handed or on a left-handed kit), play the hi-hat and the snare together.

3. Combine steps 1 and 2
Alternate between steps 1 and 2 to create a beat!

4. Double the hi-hat
You’ll play twice as many hits on the hi-hat than you were before. Think of it like adding one more hi-hat stroke that you play alone in between steps 1 and 2.

You can then try alternating steps 3 and 4 to go between playing one hi-hat stroke and two hi-hat strokes.

5. Add a crash
Every time you restart the phrase – or every 4 or 8 repetitions – replace the first hit on the hi-hat with a hit on the crash. And there you have it: the most popular beginner beat ever, and one of the most used rock beats of all time.

(While writing it out might make it look overly complicated, watch the video to see how simple it actually is.)
