How To Hold The Sticks - The American Grip

Updated: Jun 4

 

Hi guys, my name is Andrea Gatti and I am the drum and percussion instructor at Drum Arts.


In this first video, I talk about the first steps toward learning how to play the drums. In particular, I talk about:


  • Learning how to hold the sticks

  • The American grip

  • How to have a proper posture


I recommend this video to beginners who have just started playing the drums, drummers who want to improve their posture, and parents who are interested in following their child who is taking drum lessons.

Please let us know your thoughts or any questions you may have, we appreciate your contribution. Thank you.


We look forward to hearing from you!


Blessings.

Andrea Gatti

Thanks for sharing this, I have found it very useful. Is the American grip the best one to start with?

I would say it is since it’s easy to learn and at the same time it’s very versatile.
