Most drummers unknowingly spend their time on practice methods that either slow their progress or actually make them worse.
Here's what I mean:
Minus 10x Practice - You're accidentally reinforcing bad habits, encoding mistakes deeper into your muscle memory with every repetition.
2x Practice - Feels productive but yields only small progress. You're touching everything but mastering nothing.
10x Practice - Delivers massive improvement and accelerates your drumming goals faster than anything else.
The difference? 10x practice focuses intensely on one building block at a time with methodical, deliberate practice.
This approach has transformed my students at every level:
Beginner student Mireya: "This is exactly what I needed someone to teach me."
Pro drummer Marc Allen: "The biggest change was learning how to leverage the natural motion of your body. That was like a skeleton key to a lot of doors in my playing."
Recording artist Janna Pelle: "He's helped me a lot with awareness of consistency so that I can make more musical, intentional choices."
When you understand these three types of practice and focus your energy correctly, you'll see dramatic improvements even with limited practice time.
But here's what's even more powerful: having guidance to identify exactly which building blocks to focus on and when to shift your approach as you develop.
As pro drummer Johnny Robèrt put it: "Now I have enough information to last a lifetime. I'm more confident in my playing and I know exactly what I need to work on to take my playing to the next level."
I keep getting messages asking about Drum Hub spots, but we're currently sold out. If you want to dive deeper into techniques like this and transform your entire approach to practice, join the waitlist to get first dibs when new spots open up: www.dimitrifantinidrums.com/apply?community=Commun…
