Anyway a part of the learning process is up to the musician himself; this is particularly true for self-taughts, as are many of drummers and percussionists beginners. The study of the drums' rudiments and fundamentals and the search for drum solos transcriptions is common to all drummers.
That's why VirtualDrumming has realised an online method for drums that presents a series of basic and advanced drum lessons, always at your disposal.
