To increase coordination with just a practice pad, follow these steps. Start by practicing basic rudiments like single strokes, double strokes, and paradiddles. Focus on maintaining a steady tempo and smooth technique. Gradually increase the speed and complexity of the rudiments. Next, try incorporating foot patterns and different sticking combinations. Finally, challenge yourself with coordination exercises that involve playing different rhythms with each hand and foot. Regular practice on the pad will improve your overall coordination and drumming skills.
