- 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!

About Emmanuelle:

In the following years, she earned her stripes by winning various awards and competitions as a snare drummer, playing with various drum corps, and furthering her musical studies. Since then, Emmanuelle has found great success performing with artists such as Stephane Rousseau, Andy Summers and Circa Zero, as well as numerous TV appearances like the Jutra Awards, Broco Show, Belle Et Bum, the Late Show with Seth Meyers, and Sur Invitation Seulement.

So cool to see Emmanuelle in the blue room 🤘🏽🙂
Watched her videos many times when I was teaching myself how to play. She is amazing. One of the best drummers on youtube hands down. Love her flow and her timing is nearly perfect.
Wo hey robs here
Beat down in town!
Happy Birthday Rob how was your 🎂
Rob BeatDown Brown! My drum teacher!
This woman is not just a good drummer, she is a great musician.
Her technique reaches surgical levels, her timing is always impeccable, boy you see she practices that stuff a lot. She really is impressive.
haha surgical levels. exactly
It is always a treat to see Emmanuelle play, she is so gifted and watching her play makes me smile. Thanks for sharing!
I've been calling her "Queen of the Paradiddles" for years now. Love how she smiles while playing. Thanks for having her on Drumeo!
I'm beginning to believe that there's nothing she can't do on a drum kit. She's such a certified beast that the MCU is writing a character around her. She's marvelously insanely good. And when I FIRST heard her I was blown away but saw her on snare... when I heard she was a kit drummer I was optimistic but I was like "there's no way she's that tight on a whole kit, especially with such an extensive background on JUST snare, it would be impos-" and then I saw some footage. I was like "nope. NOT HUMAN." She's certified as shit.
My favourite female drummer by far. She is sooo talented.
I like when she smiles in the beginning. It shows that she's having a great time.
Playing drums is so enjoyable !!!
Thanks Drumeo 😁👍🏽👍🏽
I love watching Emmanuelle playing with such a beautiful smile. Being from Quebec myself, it is with great pride that I get to enjoy watching Emmanuelle just gracefully play these deep and intricate pieces.
I had pretty bad anxiety growing up and I was always told to smile and even once when I was on the drums. I think as I’ve gotten older I’ve realised not to take everything so seriously and just enjoy myself.
LF, Me Too !! I'm 70 yo, unfortunately I always suffered with Anxiety isues from childhood, from Nail biting at 7, to full blown Panic attacks 30 years later. Without the analysis of Psychological issues (I have found that anxiety stems from Psyche issues mixed in Physical issues), playing Drums or any instrument for that matter can help to Control Anxiety. I resurged / resurrected my interest in drumming after 50 Years. I am retired and play in my basement to My Music recreationally. I try NOT to let my playing Frustrate me... I'm Not going to be Neil Peart, Or Keith Moon or Ginger Baker (my Heros - R.I.P.), but I can keep up with Charlie Watts (R.I.P.). SMILE... it's not always easy for anxious folks, but you have to try. I thank the Lord, that I have this interest. If I can be 1/4 as Good as Emmanuel, I would be a Happy Camper. PS... I play to My Music about 1 hour a day and don't really practice.
Thank you for sharing this information with our global drumming community. Appreciate what you all do.
the most beautiful smile in the drumming world!
I appreciate the forearm exercises and the the discussion about the open style of playing rather than staying down low to achieve speed. Even after 35 years of playing and working with machines industrial settings, there is always something new to learn, a new layer, a different facet;
I love your technique. It shows me how rigid mine has become over time. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us!
This lady has groove and chops, plus she's smooth. Yes ma'am!
Without question one of the best videos Drumeo has ever produced... with one of my favourite contemporary drummers.🎉🎉🎉
I've seen videos of Emmanuelle before so I knew she was a beast but just watching the opening song - incredible! She's so controlled and powerful but without being overly complicated. Very inspiring
Emmanuelle really has hands as good as anyone. I love it how the excercises she is demonstrating are relatively simple, and they feel very familiar and relatable. However it is the execution of the excercises that makes them impressive. Super clean!
EC is such a great teacher .. thank you for putting this video up .. I’m back into it in middle age and none of this existed when I was young , so definitely helping get back into it and learn some great new skills 🙏🏼🥁🇦🇺
thank you so much Drumeo for this magic moment with Emmanuelle!
One of my top drum heroes. EC is a top flight drummer who is also a great teacher. Thank you for this and for all you do!
Wow!!! I love her attitude and style and her smile and her accent(s). She's awesome. Thanks for hosting Emmanuelle on your channel. Cheers. And we should all smile more. She's sure got me smiling and planning some practice tonight when I get home from the office.
Magnifique! What a great player Emmanuelle is, inspiring!
One of my all time favorite drummers! She is bad to the bone!! She is so smooth and makes everything look effortless. Amazing!
She makes it look so effortless -- really incredible talent with a fantastic personality. So positive -- love it.
Kudos to the sound engineer.....
I saw Emanuelle in my country (Italy) in a drum clinic, I love her spontaneity and fluidity in the instrument, she makes everything seem so easy!
She's sick. Very nice. Diggin it!
She most definitely is the master of control with her hands on the drums
Wow!! So this is space in general, an unreal cool sense of time, musicality, articulation, detail !!!! Bravo Emmanuelle!!!!!!!
As a beginner, I appreciate EVERYTHING you share, and am practicing your exercises on single strokes, everyday. Started at 60 a couple of days ago and now up to 90. I love it, thanks!
I am so hype for this lesson, been following Emmanuelle for years!!
Thanks Drumeo 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Emmanuelle is very musical with her grooves! Enjoy her drumming everytime I watch this awesome musician
Awesome! Emmanuelle is a great drummer. I enjoy learning from her as I find that she makes it look so effortless and controls her movements such that you can often understand what she is doing with her more complex grooves and fills.
It's ABOUT FREAKING TIME you stopped teasing us with clips (Instagram), & posted a FULL interview! I've been following her for a couple of years now, & her stick control is AMAZING! Not to mention, her unique groove! I can't explain it, but...she has a really interesting way of playing grooves. It's like behind the beat, yet almost on top of the beat, at the same time. She inhabits this weird "beat limbo" that makes her playing sound simple, yet NOT.
YOU CAN SEE IT IN JARED'S EYES... When he keeps looking off camera at whoever he's looking at and they lock eyes, its like they're both thinking "This drummer is a BEAST. A FUCKING. BEAST. how in the FUCK is this person so goddamned TIGHT and PRECISE?!?!?!" when she's talking about the double strokes and she says that doing the exercise will help make doubles effortless jared looks off camera and this look comes over him like "HOW IN THE HELL IS THIS POSSIBLE? HOW CAN THIS PERSON BE THIS TIGHT AND CONSISTENT?" Its great. I remember the VERY FIRST TIME I watched emmanuelle caplette play a snare pattern. This was YEARS ago.... I kept rewinding the footage.... I couldn't believe what I was seeing and hearing. She sounded like (and still sounds like) a machine with a soul.... so precise but with so much heart. I was blown away. This is possibly the most under-rated drummer in modern history.
I’ve watched her drum lessons on CZcams - great to see her on Drumeo. Didn’t know she was Canadian - and oh what a glorious smile! Love your drumming, Emanuelle
Wow, that's so cool playin....never heard of her, first time seeing her... that's amazing performance n great lesson, tq for sharing..God blessed all...
Toujours un plaisir de voir les vidéos avec Emmanuelle. Viva!
Très bonne leçon.Tu le sais qu'on t'aime Emmanuelle!! Félicitations pour ton livre!
Just bought the ebook. This video was so interesting and fun that I just had to. I love Emmanuelle's style a lot! Thank you all!
I love when great drummers are also great teachers! I think Emmanuelle is so great!
I’d love to see E’s students….they must have great technique! Very motivating! Going to practice Emma’s method.
I've been working on her doubles/stick control exercise for a while. Her technique is insane and effortless.
Emmanuelle was the first drummer i ever followed on youtube, so glad to see her here
You are a fabulous drummer! I absolutely loved the learning tips!!
She is amazing , I saw she in Portugal and was amazing , congrat's Drumeo and Emanuelle.
Très inspirante et impressionnante! Merci Emmanuelle et Drumeo!
Jared's questions are very relevant and driving the interview in the best of ways.
Emmanuelle est mon inspiration! Thanks for having her!
Such an infectious smile too!
Wow! Lovely play. I like and love how you play. You finished superbly😀, thank you for the show 👏🏾👍🏾
what the heeeeeeeck. Girl can beat down!! woohoo!!! Straight fire Emmanuelle! Amazing drumming. Super inspiring 🤯👏
Man that snare sounds sooo good… she makes that kit sing!
Thankyu Drumeo. I have enjoyed her paradiddle breakdowns. This one is fun.
I'm watching she used the same patterns I used yesterday teaching at school 😱. Love her !
Party yesterday and Emmanuelle today!
Good job guys!
One of the best drummers all over the world!!!
Love Emmanuelle!!! One of my favorites
She's so badass. I started playing hair guitar in the 80s. My daughter started playing drums 3 yrs ago at 7yrs old. She's 11 now. Has such natural skill and talent, but she doesn't play enough. She's on her phone. Maybe it's her age. When I started in 85, I was obsessed. Played 2-3 hours daily. I was 15. She plays at band practice and shows. She is in a kid band and has gotten to play in some large local shows because of her friendship with the drummer of a hugely popular local band. She saw him play at 7 and was mesmerized . I started the exact same way in 85. I find instructional videos of drummers and try to get her to interested. Her band does 80s hair covers- Dio, Foreigner, Pat Benatar, Metallica, etc. She kills em. Being a hair guitar player, I was so proud of her. It's so great to have female drummers who do instructions. She's a sick player.
She is so cool! Great tutorials and she lights up the room!
Great lesson and mind blowing playing by Emmanuelle!
Ive been following Emmanuelle for a while. Movin on up!
Super Emmanuelle, tu assures ! Thanks Drumeo too !
Thank you sooo much Emmanuelle!
Emanuella! You are awesome ! I love you're drumming!
Thanks for this DRUMEO :) Emmanelle tu es incroyable et inspirante!
Never heard of Emmanuelle prior to this video, and I've clearly been missing out!
LOVE those Evo crashes and hats!!! The best cymbals on the market!
I forgot and tried to like this video like 3 times throughout. 😂👏🏼👏🏼
Sometimes smiling doesn't really fit with the music, for instance playing metal. The ability to smile while playing is a product of relaxing though, and that comes with having great technique so you're not working so hard. This is something I've been trying to work on, and something about Emmanuelle's playing that I admire. The goal is to get your hands do what your brain tells them to do without much effort, and doing a lot of hard work on fundamentals is the way to get there. Here's to hitting the practice pad! Good stuff, Drumeo!!!
You guys broadcast a livestream with her a few weeks back that blew me away (and have been burning the exercises since!). Then it disappeared! Thanks for re-posting!!!!
Sounds super smooth and groovy because ... I've been watching her videos and she has been p r a c t i c i n g like there's no tomorrow!!! Now she can smile! :D
Now, how can you not just ADORE her??
Emmanuelle is awesome!! Great vid!
WOW!!! Some great goals to shoot for here ... thank you for posting! Man-O-Man, those are some hefty sticks! Considering retirement myself after these performances, ha 😂😅😂😂
Que musicalidad! No la conocía, pero definitivamente ya la tengo en mi radar de ahora en adelante, me encantó!
she is so fire 🔥🔥🔥👏🏾👏🏾 thank you for this
Man, her English is so much better than the first time i've been watching her since 2015. French-Canadians are so cool and smart.
@Andy Mann beats me but i'd like to guess as the Aussies like to hunt and cherish animals, the Canucks like to beat the hell out of drums becuz it's so cold and boring up there with nothing to do.
Perfectly relaxed as she slams out some real power on that kit.
Você é muito simpática, uma inspiração. Sou inscrito no seu canal. Muito obrigado!!!😍
Bravo Emmanuelle! Merci Beaucoup!
Thanks for sharing this very interesting video with an ashtonishing good drummer. I really like her way of drumming.
She is a monster. Love her playing.
ITS ABOUT TIME......
THE QUEEN OF STICK CONTROL !!!
Thank you so much for this realy inspiring video!
This took so long to happen! She's amazing!
Killer opening tune!
My favourite female drummer!
Yes finally EC on Drumeo awesomeness Jared’s head is exploding 🥁🥁🥁🥁
Best female drummer I would say 👌👌
Watching her play makes me wanna play!
Unbelievably fantastic!👍
I heard of her but I admit this is the first time I see her. That smile says it all: play with joy. You have to have a goodtime while playing. I got a new drummer to follow (that book looks pretty interesting). I play drums since 1988 and I do a lot of exercises and the forearm was something I never thought about (I still do exercises on my legs, just over the knee.. and it hurts a bit). I will try. Because it's time to introduce my son (a natural born percussion player.. yes, I'm lucky!) to some easy techniques for hands and wrist control.
very inspiring..thank you🙏😍
The paradiddles on the ride and snare were mint in the intro
Cheers! Emmanuelle Caplette 🤘🏿
The true level of a drummer shows in their smile. There is a lot of concentration that happens. So once that's in memory and you free up concentration for interaction or smiling your definitely on your way! Even Jared concentrates pretty hard as he plays ;)
I like the way you ask the important question.. when, where and how and why..
She's beautiful. Love her drumming
Practice makes Perfect.... She is Perfect !
The way she's always on time to hit figures after going ham is just really really impressive
So cool Emmanuelle, and her smile ! One of m'y favourite. Perhaps one day Simon Phillips in the blue room ? A Dream....
