About Drumming On A Dime

Drumming On A Dime is a beginner drum program for adults who want to start playing - without buying a drum kit.

This is not music school.
This is not endless rudiments.
This is not years of theory before you touch a groove.

This is a simple, structured path that gets you playing real drum beats fast - using nothing more than a pair of sticks and a practice surface.

Drumming On A Dime is part of The Drum Coach system and is designed for one type of person:

Adults who always wanted to play drums
Adults starting from scratch

The Problem With Most Drum Learning

Most beginner drummers quit because:

They are overloaded with information
They are told to “practice rudiments for months”
They are sold gear before skill
They have no clear outcome

Drumming On A Dime removes all of that.

What Makes This Different

Clear Outcome

In 10 - 14 days, you will play 2 real drum beats and fills using sticks and a practice surface.

That gives you the ability to play along with the majority of modern pop music.

Step By Step Structure

You do not guess what to practice.
You follow a daily progression. And it starts simple.

Built For Adults

Designed with adults in mind - effective for kids of any age.
This is not cartoon drumming.

Low Cost. Low Risk. High Leverage.

You start with almost no investment.

Skill first. Gear later.

Who This Is For

Adults 25+ who always wanted to start
Former drummers restarting
Busy professionals with limited time
People who want fast proof they can actually do this

Who This Is Not For

People who want advanced jazz theory
People looking for complex music exams
People unwilling to practice 10 minutes a day

The Bigger Picture
