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.)

FINALLY!! Someone understands what’s it’s like to be a complete beginner - timing the kick was always my issue (I would want to tap my foot to match my hands on each hit instead of being disciplined and keeping my foot down while my hands do the work), so many CZcams videos just jump to grooves at full speed and tell you to copy them without letting you get your body accustomed to the full movements or reasoning first.
Ya I wouldn't even recmmend sitting down at a drum set. I'd say buy a practice pad and work on getting your left hand in sync and learn the rhythyums first.
Why did I watch the whole video, being an advanced drummer?
Same
Same 😂
Me too lol
I’m not sure about you but i was watching the whole video for the teacher of the lesson😂🤦♂️
just watching this for fun btw (also love to watch drumeo vids)
I'm a total beginner and got my first electric kit today. I played along with this video for about an hour and had such a blast! I got it by the end despite my kick falling behind a little and couldn't stop playing it. Loved the backing track - so much more fun to play to than a click!
Can you link your set please
This is great to read. Im considering FINALLY getting myself an electric kit next year, and doing these lessons just for the fun of it. Ive always wanted to learn the drums...my fitness drum class and hitting the sticks on the floor is as close as Ive gotten. 😄
@@RadicalValkyrie it’s definitely worth it if you ever wanted to play drums. I just got an electronic set this weekend and it’s so much fun. The only reason I went electric is cause I have the drums setup in my room on the second floor so I can’t have an acoustic set too loud. I got the Alesis mesh surge kit and it’s pretty cool, I love that I can get a ton of different sounds without having to adjust the drum heads or purchase a ton of other drums.
This is really good to learn playing drums
Same, I got my first one today also!
She’s the best. I haven’t played in years and I feel I’m starting over. Your never too old to start doing things you always dreamt of.
That's right
Book publishers should hire her to narrate audiobooks! Her voice is amazing!
1:07 -- I'm left-handed but when I learned as a kid, I knew that nobody ever was going to have a left-handed house kit so I forced myself to learn right-handed and I love it because now it opened up so much extra, with no dominant hand now.
Been drumming for +- 50 years. Still put 1-2 hours a day. Often had to teach youngsters that had all the theory knowledge to go back to the basics. Keep it clean, neat and tight. None of the Beatles read music. Follow how you feel.
@@Music_Head I don’t think he meant the comment badly
@@TheCurtisdavies My bad, I was joking but anyway, I deleted the comment and gave him a thumbs up.
Can not express how awesome I think Damino is in everyway.
I’ve been contemplating taking up drums as a retirement hobby. In one video, you take students from a beat, to playing a song. You’re wonderful, and you’ve convinced me to go for it! Thank you, ma’am!
I'm retired but I still play and love my drums.
Here's a hint when you start try playing ambidextrous.
It challenges both sides of the brain.
Happy drumming my friend!
Bless.
🎉🎉🎉🎉 wonderful
Go for it and don’t hesitate, get an electronic kit if noise is an issue, I just bought my first kit I’m 57, I’ve been air drumming to songs since I was a young teen and wished I’d taken up playing them back then, but my mum couldn’t afford to be me a kit and it would’ve been too noisy to play. I find that I can actually play along to some songs because I’ve been doing it on air for such a long time
Get a Donner ded 200 electronic kit. I love mine
The problem is you have to learn how to HOLD sticks FIRST then learn how to bounce sticks off of drum.
I'm not a drummer, I don't have a drumset but I iust sat down and air drummed for 10 mins while mesmerized by the video. Great job I'd say. She's an excellent teacher for someone who doesn't have any idea about drumming.
Domino is a Star. Fantastic to see her collaborating with Drumeo. Wishing everyone all the best on the course
Thank you!!
I'm hurry to follow the 3daydrummer program with Domino !
I’ll learn anything she has to teach!
This feels like a Pilates or aerobics class and I’m all for it haha
You really chose the best person to teach this. Domino is having such a contagious smile and clearly having fun while doing this. 👌
And the steps are very intuitive. I'm clearly going to use this approach if I teach drums to a beginner. Thanks, Drumeo! 👍
Cheers, Clarence!
she is great, all around. good teaching skills, keeping everything very simple and easy to follow. Made me grab my pad and practice some tempo, too. Good for anyone who wants to play the drums so they can see how fun it can be, even at their first steps.
Yes, I am a beginning drummer, at 67 years old. I’ve been practicing this beat, and this video really helped me out a lot.🇺🇸
She has great taste in cymbals. =)
My permanent metronome, now built into my head for life, because of you. The "And 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4" I can't un hear that!
I loved the way you teach! I’m going to show it to my daughter who is just starting. Would like to see a video about how to set up the kit - height and angle of drums, including electronic drums, and also advise on holding the sticks.
The music behind the rhythm helped me try to keep a beat. TY
Started learning drums with this beat last week because of drumeo, with some practice i have it down now. Thank you
Been practicing this work out for about 10 days now, being my first time holding sticks and starting to learn the drums I feel really good about my progress, my plan is to keep praticing this work out until the beginning of the 30 day course, I'm so excited!!!! ❤️🔥🥁
How do you feel now 3 months later?
Yeah, how did it go ?
I'm also curious
Did you actually take the 30 Day Drummer course? So how was it?
What a lovely teacher. Her comments are so encouraging :D
Thanks to all the drumeo team and Domino for the class, it's great that your never stop sharing the topic of teaching because that keeps us drummers in the habit of discipline and never stop learning and also the class is dynamic and fun. Quedo chida la clase.
It’s always great seeing an instructor who truly loves what they are doing!
I was cruising CZcams for drumming videos a couple months back with my 2yr old daughter because she showed an interest in playing drums and we found this video. This is her favorite video! She watches this at least 3x a day now and you can tell she’s absorbing it the more she watches. As someone who likes to play multiple instruments, I’m finally getting it too. Thank you for this video, and rock on!
Making Québec proud!
Need the 30 day drummer course to reopen!
After 45 years still love drumming, if possible on a daily basis. It's fun every day, and always possible to learn something new, or practice to get better 🥁 For life ✨️ ❤️
What age did you start? 4 like Phil's Collins?
@@lunarmodule6419 11 y.o. starting to drum, now I am 57 y.o. And that's old, believe me 😂
As simple as these beats may seem to someone who's been playing the dwumms already for quite some time, it still was heaps of fun to play along with Domino (and some of the other drumeo guys in the recent live stream video, too) 😊👍
Coolest drumming tutorial ever. Domino is a great teacher.
Best teacher
I am a guitarist, at the young age of 63, keen on learning to play drums. Wow, I love this Beginner lesson. I feel confident to go buy an electric drum pad set to start my drumming journey. Its gonna be fun, I'm sure. 😊😊
Best first drum lesson I’ve ever seen!
This is actually well put together and she makes it interesting. I’m taking notes for when I get asked to teach someone who doesn’t play, how to begin.
Same!
She's an insanely great teacher oh my god!
It's not the same obviously but I was following along with a drum kit on Ableton hooked up to my MPK Mini's drum pads. I feel like a lot of music production tutorials say when to hit whatever percussion, but they never say why. Felt like I was blindly following formulas without understanding. Following along with this gave me a great beginner understanding of what's actually happening. Thanks so much Domino!
Aside from the very good pedagogy, there are so many details to admire in this video. First and foremost, she demonstrates how much feel and emotion you can put into the money beat, even playing to a canned MIDI backing track. I felt it in my heart. Next, she has a personalized, well-tuned kit. 4-piece, Heaven's own snare sound, the Ludwigs with vintage-style reinforcement rings, perfectly damped, nice light Paistes that go well with her vintage tone. I would have loved to have this course available when I started playing 10 years ago.
I actually like that backing track lol
She my teacher, i go to school everyday. I probably be a rockstar when i am 15.
Exactly what I need. Complete breakdown of know-how. Thank you.
Thank you, my 9 year old Granddaughter has just started learning as a complete beginner, and she loves the step by step approach starting with the very basics.
Great teaching...! So enjoying the lesson and so contagious...
Very encouraging..thanks Domino!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I’m doing a study project for my class, and we needed to study a new instrument and create a presentation!! Love you girl!!❤
It has taken me an entire week to be able to nail this 5 minute workout 😂 Starting from total beginner and having never played any intrument before. I practiced with the metronome on my kit and came back to this workout every now and again. It has been a challenge, but i enoyed it.
You are a very good teacher and look like you’re having lots of fun. Thank you.
Step 6: sign a record deal. :D You did an amazing job on this video and even gave me confidence that I might actually be able to learn how to actually make a beat. Thank you
Wow... Your the best teacher in drums. You teach step by step, that is the right step.. 😊
The best drum lesson i have ever found on youtube..❤
this is no drum lesson, this is fitness time !
Is that melody/song avaliable anywhere? Love the lesson!
What a beautiful and talented woman!! She is such a great teacher as well!
Amazing lesson for all beginners. And actually, the backing track she's using to teach is pretty cool.
It really makes you appreciate just how many songs have this exact drum line in them, with very little variance other than for style.
Thank you Domino's and drumeo for your demonstration video. I'm planning on starting to play drums again and work on my technique and some other stuff!
Does anyone know where I can find that backing track she uses to practice to?
She is teaching in a very easiest method and I appreciate her wonderful God gifted good teaching skills.
Makes me feel nostalgic to watch those first lesson videos. 1 year in and the progress is crazy. Never stop drumming everyone!
Omg, this is by far the best lesson ever!! Nice work!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
This is great to see! I’m just starting out teaching, and had an interview for a teaching job yesterday afternoon - wish I’d found this video the day before!
This was really soothing to listen to.
Absolutely love every step you taught.
This lesson is pure gold!
I started 11 minutes ago and plan to go pro this afternoon. It’s that Easy!
Thanks , you are a wonderful teacher in every way.
So much fun to play along the beat, got my first lessons and so happy to find this vid
Thank you so much. Very easy to learn through your step by step class. Keep upload more videos so it will be much helpful for beginners like me. Once again thank you. God bless you
I’ve been making compositions for a year. Hard to find a drummer for free. I bought an electronic drum kit a few years ago but gave up on learning. I watched many CZcams videos but they quickly go to the difficult stuff and I get lost. You have convinced me that I will soon be able to record my drums myself. Thanks!
Great video! I a begginer. Just bought a roland td17kvx. You had me playing and feeling great❤❤
Merci pour ces formations. J adore ta methode. Continue de nous partager ta passion.
Wow. I love this drum tutorial! She makes it simple for beginners to learn!
Domino is a good drummer and I like her style. As a bonus she is cute, very cute actually. However, if you want to 4/4th beat in a few minutes there is a great video by Sina.
Not quite sure what you can learn by just playing along for 10 minutes a day for a month. I learnt the 4/4th by myself and then I had a few half hour or our sessions with a friend who plays drums. That was in the 90s. I did my practice on phone books, I didn't even have practice pads. Just phone books are hard to fine these days :)
Nice simple introduction.
I'm left handed and never considered drumming "left-handed". I started out in a marching band in the 1960s. When I started guitar in 1970, I never considered a left-handed guitar.
I found out that being slightly ambidextrous works out that I can play any instrument in its most common format.
Rearranging a drum kit for "left-handedness" would be so limiting if I ever sat-in using another's drum kit.
So i bought my first kit (Alesis Mesh Kit Nitro) yesterday, assemble the kit and and learn easy beat and try to play that beat for good 30 minutes non-stop i did alot of mistakes because i never touched the drums in my life but i love music and if you love music and symphony you can understand the beat pattern well. So after that i was like lets find out which songs i can play with this easy beat and i found a youtube video that demonstrate 100 songs with 1 beat. OMG i pick my most fav songs and start playing along those, next thing i know i been sitting for 2 plus hours playing almost 7 plus songs with only the beat no drum filler yet i still have to learn those, which i will learn today as my 2nd day. I am not speeding things up but i am surprised how fast i pick the beat pattern and start playing along with songs. I can play (Rolling in the deep by Adele) its a high bpm song for a person like me who never touched drums in his life. Sharing this all with you, as i get excited reading comments of new drum players like me and how we are progressing. The resources by this channel are super :) thank you so much for all the efforts in the videos you post.
Luvly way to put it. Easy & practical & joyous. The music choice is perfect. Good drummer definitly 👏🌈
Absolutely love this video, as I have just started to teach someone drums, and this is super effective and helpful. Thank you 👌🏼💯
If you're at a party and just want to jam at a 4/4 time to a simple pop or rock tune whether to a record or with other musicians this will work and just have fun
This was my first ever drumming lesson - looking forward to the 30 day course as part of my Drumeo subscription!
That's fantastic! Thanks for the comment, Richard. Good luck on the kit!
i need this, how much did it cost?
I wish you a beautiful jurney.
You are amazing. Love how you teach!
That kick sounds amazing!
Thank you so much for the lesson❤️
Excellent! Nice job
As a long time guitar player, this pointed out a huge weakness in my drumming.. I didn't master basics
Simply easy and incredible lesson.
Thank you 👍🙏
I just got a drum set (gift from my family) and I am a mess, this video helps a lot. Thank you
Thanks for reaching so clear! I am so uncoordinated but you really helped!!
I'm a beginner too and it's only normal that you there's no coordination in the first few months. Take it easy! It all comes with practice and more importantly have fun. It's just an instrument that helps you express your joy and love for music.
this woman is just amazing… discovered her today & I just think she’s incredible
Love her teaching style!
thank you so much! this video was super helpful as a 1st lesson to get me started on my journey . Keep up the great work!
GREAT JOB MS. DOMINO 🥁
Best Teacher Great Enerrgy

Thank you Domino Santantonio, you are a good teacher. 👍🇵🇭
I'm so excited she makes it so easy thank you so much
This was so engaging and straightforward this is all I want to do now- and this is my first time ever touching my new drum set :)
I'm ready to retire in a few years and have always wanted to play drums😊
I really really love this and it gave me some courage that I can play drum in easy way thank you so much keep it up
Oh yea- I’m starting a band now-
Actually- great video for beginners and experienced drummers- it never hurts to get refresher course-
Thanks for posting
