Welcome to the Total Drummer practice planner. If this makes drum practice feel like school homework then I would say.....GET OVER IT! Because using this planner properly will mean you get infinitely better results from your practice and you will become a better drummer. You can spend all the hours in the world aimlessly practising and still feel like you're not progressing. Create clearly defined goals, break down what you need to do to reach those goals, and commit time every week to work towards that goal. And then you will reach them much more quickly. And by tracking your progress you will stay motivated, practice more often and understand your weaknesses so that you can tackle them and make them your strengths. So here we have some reference guides for rudiments, note values and a notation key. Then you have practice planners for a whole year. And finally there are some empty staves for you to keep musical notes and create your own music. Let's get started!
