Little Kids Rock has introductory resources and video tutorials that teach students how to play musical instruments. The 'Body Drumset' lesson shows you how to play the drums without a drumkit. All you need is your body.
Structure and features
'Body Drumset' has 7 sequential videos that teach students about the parts of the drumkit, and how to play a basic rock beat and beginner fills. Your left shoulder is the hi-hat, your left thigh is the snare, and your right foot is the kick.
