    Just wanted to say that I had a stroke half a year ago and I've always been frustrated to the point of almost quitting drums since my right size is completely uneven in comparison with the left. But after trying this just once I already feel the sync coming back slowly! So thank you so much for your video, you have no idea how much you've changed my life right now!

    Doing the work no one wants to do. And being happy about it. When this guy can clearly tear up a drum kit. In all styles.

    Using your nondominant hand in every day life - in stroke rehabilitation we have patients do this with their stroke side - to the point where we put a big oven mitt on their good side, and call it "constraint therapy". Neuroplasticity in action!

    The part about using my middle finger on the fulcrum was the solution. Turns out my index finger was stifling my sticks rebound. I would be embarrassed to admit how long this has been a problem. Thank you so very much!

    You explain this in such a good way, and we should all come back to this from now and then to make sure bad habits didn’t kick in.I am starting to do capsules soon and will insist on this and grip because a lot of people get injuries over the years and don’t know the answer. Starts right there, fundamentals. Good job man!

    I've been tapping on things as long as I can remember, but finally got an electric set to learn with. I've been practicing for a little over a year. Great info. Thanks for sharing!

    Steven, thank you so much for the helpful tutorial about fixing the weak hand. I am a 72 year old self-taught drummer that just recently started up playing again after about a 50 year layoff. I know that my left hand needs a lot of work, and I sit down at my kit with good intentions, but I get impatient and just want to get playing to music. This video of yours has inspired me to make a commitment and finally get better. One part of your lesson will help me kill 2 birds with one stone, and that is practicing to Don’t Stop Believing. I noticed Steve Smith play open handed and then later Deen Castronovo, but I kept doing it the old fashioned way. Thanks to you, I am going to begin my journey correcting my problem today. Thank you again, and I really enjoy your down to Earth method of teaching. You share a very positive approach with us students.

    Stephen you are a GREAT teacher! I have seen a lot of your videos and you are amazing in how you explain stuff, PLUS you seem to be a great player with great feel and time. I am old Berklee guy..back in the Fusion days when Cobahm was hot etc Garibaldi well that's funk...Lenny White all those guys. My band was signed to CBS records back in the day..did lots of studio work and I also taught drums. Have a close relative who was Vinnie Colaiuta's roommate...played with Chick Corea with Dave Wekel, Jean Luc Ponty on and on. I had the pleasure of having Steve Smith sleep over my house and we played double drums in the morning..had two sets in my living room. Lenny White would come over sometimes to see my band play. In any case I don't mean to be a name dropper!!, but been around some amazing musicians and played with many of them. I was offered a "REAL job" haha if you will...in 1985 and somehow I got burned out on drumming, and quit 100% in 2000. 21 years later I got the urge to play again..kinda rusty now...but funny though I was a real good drummer so they say, I am now starting over almost from scratch esp as to technique, and though I know most of what you teach...I find you are super helpful and just wanted to say a thank you for what you do here. Sure you have affiliate links and all..but you deserve much more than that...you do a GREAT job!!
