Discover the following essential drum techniques
- Perfect Moeller technique
- Heel-up and heel-down kick drum technique
- Hand and foot independence
- Coordination and timing

Why Latin and Funk?
Listen to the drums on James Brown’s Sex Machine or Papa’s Got A Brand New Bag. Check out David Garibaldi’s drumming on Tower of Power’s Soul Vaccination. Listen to Steve Gadd’s hypnotic groove on Paul Simon’s Late in the Evening. All these tracks have one thing in common – the funky grooves are actually variations of Latin rhythms.
Latin to Funk drum students will quickly become much more versatile players by learning these six authentic Latin grooves:
- Songo
- Mozambique
- Bossa Nova
- Samba
- Mambo
- Guaguancó
Before renowned session drummer Jon Howells teaches you how to “Funkify” each rhythm and adapt them into exciting, modern funk grooves that you can use in hundreds of musical settings.
