Get seated comfortably with both feet on the floor. Place both hands on your left thigh, - right hand closer to your knee - left hand closer to your inner thigh.
Tap along with all the 9 exercises as indicated with the hand-foot diagram.
For your hands, simply rotate your wrists to tap. For your foot, simply rotate your ankle to tap the floor. Or you may lift your foot off the ground and tap the floor.
Tension in your muscles is unhealthy. Stay relaxed and do not exert any unnecessary force on yourself. This means your taps should be pretty soft in volume.
For this to be effective for a total beginner, you should: 1. Follow through all the exercises, don't SKIP 2. Make a conscious effort to play them correctly all the time 3. Go through this video EVERYDAY
To see quicker progress, do it as many times as you can in a day.
We will be releasing more such videos in future, which will require you to play these exact beats with music, and at a faster speed. So keep PRACTICING!
Once you're extremely comfortable with all these exercises, you may change the playback speed of this video to 1.25x, 1.5x or 2x to play along at a faster speed.
