MEET YOUR LEAD INSTRUCTOR WHO'LL GUIDE YOU THROUGH THE TRAINING

Jake began exactly where you are. Drumming did not come naturally either which sent him in search of world-renown drummers he could learn from and eventually recruit to put together this training.
 
Today, Jake has travelled around the world performing with various artists and has been featured on a dozen studio albums.

"This is truly the ultimate beginner drum course. I sat at the drums for 5 days straight to film these lessons after weeks of planning and decades of drumming. You will know the entire evolution and the exact steps I've used to personally teach hundreds of drummers. Whether you're a complete beginner or near intermediate drummer, you're going to have the support you need to arrive and succeed."

- Jake Nicolle, Founder of 180 Drums

COURSE #2: BEGINNER DRUM BEATS

The essential grooves taught to you step-by-step, beat by beat

START GROOVING FROM DAY ONE


In this course you're going to learn the essential grooves you need to immediately begin playing the drums really well. We'll walk you through each groove, systematically, teaching you several dozen grooves in the process. You're going to be amazed by how we've connected all the grooves you are learning so that you never have to guess what you should work on next.

We filmed all these lessons back to back so that each lesson and groove would flow into the next. This way you have the building blocks to quickly learn each idea and expand your drumming vocabulary quickly.

Lesson One

This is called "The First Groove" and it's laying the foundation for how we think about drumming

Lesson Two

In this lesson we learn our first "money beat" which is the most used drum beat of all time

Lesson Three

In this lesson we start to combine parts of the kit together to further develop our confidence

Lesson Four

This lesson includes perspective from one of the most in-demand touring and recording drummers

Lesson Five

This lesson is where our creativity starts to grow with hearing how accents change the feel of beats

17 Step-by-step Videos

This course includes 17 total video lessons which teach dozens of essential grooves

COURSE #3: FOUNDATIONAL FILLS

A systematic guide for learning to play exciting drum fills

WOW THE ROOM WITH THESE "BEGINNER" FILLS


If you've ever felt stuck or confused about drum fills, we're going to show you how even the most "basic" ideas can pack a big punch on the drums. In this course we have 12 video lessons that teach several ideas in each lesson so you will be playing over 50 different drum fills without having to think at all.

The goal of this course is to show you the ropes step-by-step and then giving you the confidence to get creative yourself.

Lesson One

What is a drum fill? How do we actually begin to create our own drum fills at the kit?

Lesson Two

The "fill on the money" which is a companion lesson to our "beat on the money"

Lesson Three

In this lesson we learn how subdivisions change the shape and feel of playing drum fills

Lesson Four

Sixteenth notes can make for exciting drum fills and we'll show you the way

12 Step-by-step Videos

This training includes 12 video lessons that will give you over 50 drum fill ideas you will master

COURSE #4: HAND SPEED

How to develop your hand speed and control from day one

LEARN THE TOOLS TO PLAY FAST, FLUID, AND CONFIDENTLY


One of the biggest challenges beginners face is getting their hands up to a speed they're happy with. Things feel sloppy, the left hand lags behind (or right if you're a "lefty") and drummers tend to feel like they are "forcing" their drumming and tensing up.

In this course we're going to show you how confidently practice the essential rudiments that make up much of the amazing ideas you hear other drummers playing. With this course complete, you are going to have the confidence to move forward as a drummer knowing the ingredients that make drummers great with a path that is as clear as day.

Lesson One

The "single stroke roll". You've likely already been playing it but now it's time to understand it!

Lesson Two

The "double stroke roll" which is where many beginner drummers start to get their "wings"

Lesson Three

This lesson introduces an iconic and essential rudiment, the "paradiddle"

Lesson Four

This lesson walks through changing subdivisions and how to play triplets

Lesson Five

One of our most cherished warm-up exercises and hand speed builders that will inspire you

13 Step-by-step Videos

13 lessons that will 
dramatically improve your drumming skill

COURSE #5: TOTAL CONTROL

Total freedom with both your hands and feet on the drums

DISCOVER THE FUNDAMENTALS OF 4-WAY INDEPENDENCE


This course will help launch you into intermediate and advanced drumming from having been a complete beginner. Most drummers struggle dramatically with using all 4 limbs at the same time, whether it's keeping time with their hi-hat foot, or simply getting stuck understanding how to best coordinate their hands and feet.

Regardless of how new to drumming you are, this course is going to show you how to unlock the next level.

Lesson One

Learn the essentials of how to think about independence to prepare you for this course

Lesson Two

Learn the fundamental patterns to develop your left foot with grooves you are already familiar with

Lesson Three

This lesson introduces you to more complex grooves that you can apply your left foot to

Lesson Four

This lesson is where we really start to realize how far we've come on the drums

Lesson Five

This lesson is all about showing you how far we can take independence on the drums

9 Step-by-step Videos

Once you reach this point, you are going to be playing at a high intermediate level

WHAT RESULTS CAN YOU EXPECT AFTER TAKING THE COURSE?

For one, you can expect to be changed. You will not be the same drummer you are right now in just a few days time. All you have to do is spend the 5-10 minutes to go through each idea in the lessons and literally practice along to the practice videos to see results. 

As the saying goes, "if you want to stay stuck where you are, keeping doing what you've always done." If you're ready to evolve from a complete beginner to an informed and prepared intermediate drummer, this course lays the foundation and walks you through every stage of your evolution, step-by-step, beat-by-beat.

Alana Preston

"I only started playing drums 8 months ago, taking weekly lessons with a private instructor. I decided to purchase a yearly subscription to 180 Drums and it immediately put me on the fast track. I'm understanding all aspects of the drums faster than I ever imagined possible. My sight reading has improved and my creativity playing on the kit is getting so much better each day. I love that I can watch 180 tutorials anywhere, on my computer, iPad or Phone. It has been a great experience and I look forward to starting intermediate tutorials very soon. I highly recommend 180 Drums, especially from a beginners point of view it has been very educating!"

Kyle Reed

“My 180 sub's been great. Every time I get behind my drums. I'm inspired and I've been seeing huge improvement with 180 since I've been able to just show up and practice what the program tells me to practice next. I like not having to think about what I should be learning! haha... and I'm so excited to see where it takes me! Thanks guys!”

Phil Vanderwater

“Thanks again for your awesome program! My daughter Jillian would never be able to have the confidence or the skills to play the way she does today! Jillian just got a message from the music academy today saying how nice it was to have her play for them and how impressed they were with her talent. This is why we continually tell everybody about 180, because it really is that awesome!!!!”

Jim B.

"I am loving 180 Drums! I feel I am getting better with each lesson. I want you to know the difference you made in my life. I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease about 15 years ago. I gave up drumming years age but I am back. Your website has been pivotal for me, thank you!"

Greg R.

"My practice became very scattered and I felt stuck and tired of surfing YouTube. I wanted my drumming to just flow. 6 weeks later and I’m the most inspired I’ve ever been. My bandmate said my feel has gotten 3x better!"
