Hi, I'm Carles Planells and I welcome you to the cajon course: Learn through rhythms. In this course you will learn to play the cajon in a fun and dynamic way. The learning method is based on learning rhythms only. The reason for this is because I think it is the most practical way to learn to play percussion because you can quickly apply the knowledge and play with other musicians or on top of your favorite songs. The way to learn the rhythms will be as follows: I'll play the rhythm at a normal speed first so you can see what it sounds like. Then I will slow down a lot so that you can see well where each blow goes and try to imitate me at home. Finally, I will accelerate the speed so you can see how it sounds at the different speeds. Why learn this way? Well, because the learning system by imitation is the oldest that exists and will allow you to develop your ear. Finally, I would like to thank the Peruvian and gypsy teachers for the legacy. And tell you that I hope you enjoy and learn a lot. Courage and patience. Long live music and percussion!

This course is designed for drummers and musicians at all levels to gain greater control of their instrument and build a stronger foundation in rhythm. It covers the fundamental concept of percussion rudiments. Rudiments are at the core of being a competent drummer and percussionist. If you're not a drummer, learning rudiments can enhance your musicianship, coordination, and give you a better sense of rhythm. This course is meant to build a solid foundation of technique, an in-depth understanding of sub-divisions, and coordinated control of various sticking patterns. A firm grasp of these core concepts will open many doors to drummers of any style or context. The rudiments in this course were thoughtfully chosen as common tools for the working drummer or musician. If you're not a drummer - this course can provide a deeper understanding of rhythm and improve your coordination by learning these sticking patterns. These can be applied to any instrument by gaining the skills of limb independence, improved dexterity, and a deeper sense of rhythmic concepts. These rudiments can be applied without drumsticks or playing surface. Simply play these exercises out on your lap with a metronome or a drum-beat accompaniment. If you have questions throughout this course, do not hesitate to message me with further questions about achieving your practice and performance goals. Thanks so much for taking a peak at this course!
