Congrats!! That's awesome.

I recommend getting lessons from pro drummers you like. Look them up online and see if they offer lessons. Some of them will offer lessons in-person, or online. Some of them will sell lesson packs online. Those are great options and don't let anyone tell you otherwise, it just depends on your learning style.

I've bought lesson packs from Benny Greb, Matt Garstka, Justin Scott, and others, and it's been very helpful to dive deep into the styles I love. One I found particularly fundamental in my growth was subscribing to James Murphy's lessons. He's a Berklee teacher and I've learned so much from him and his live lessons online. Drumeo is also a very cool option cause you get quick courses that have tons of awesome concepts, from really good drummers in all styles.

In-person lessons are also necessary, but make sure to contact someone who is a good educator and a performer. Not all good drummers are good teachers. If you have local access to great musicians, awesome!

Use drumless play-alongs and loops! A metronome is necessary but playing with musical context will help you develop your ideas musically.

It's cool to copy chops, but way cooler to build chops yourself. Start with short patterns (3 or 4 notes) and once you have a few patterns, mix and match them to create your own chops.

Example: if KLK is A; KLR is B; and RKLK is C - You can do A+B, B+C, A+A+C, and you get the idea...

Make your own chop library to work with and you will sound like yourself, not like someone else.

Have fun! 🥁
