PRACTICE TIPS
UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF CHANGING PACE
Practice in the art of percussion take REPETITION. Sometimes you will spend HOURS on one thing and it can really take a toll on you mentally.
If you can have enough self awareness to know when it is time to change pace, you can really maximize your practice time.

If you are working on something and it has been kicking your butt for a while, it might be time to shift gears and work on something else. Or take a break! Here is an example of a good personal practice rotation:
1 HOUR CONCENTRATED PRACTICE
5-10 MIN BREAK
1 HOUR CONCENTRATED PRACTICE
5-10 MIN BREAK
5-10 MIN BREAK
1 HOUR CONCENTRATED PRACTICE
5-10 MIN BREAK
Everyone is different, and maybe working for 3 hours at a time is your thing, but cycling through a process like this can really help build your mental stamina.
