Our heart beat, is the pulse that gives us life. If our pulse stops, we’re either dead or in trouble. “The pulse”, is the heart beat of music. If it stops, or is erratic, speeding up, and / or slowing down, your ability to play or perform music will be on life support. It doesn’t get any more fundamental than this. Without having a strong inner pulse, at best your music will be wounded, at worst it will be dead. Dave Smith’s Rhythm Skool is your rhythm and pulse version of guided meditation.

Dave I’m so grateful I came across your Rhythm Skool . I’ve struggled w/ playing along to a metronome and click track . Since I’ve been part of this amazing community of drummers / musicians I am 95% heading to mastering this much needed skill set !! The triangle internal / Pulse method you teach is phenomenal. I can easily find where I’m at and I can count so easily into different subdivisions in any genera of Music !! I can’t say enough. Thank you . Master Dave ! Forever grateful.

I'd really recommended Rhythm Skool. My rhythm has definitely improved since joining, and I have a much better understanding of concepts like subdivisions, pulse, placements, patterns / frameworks. Before joining my experience of these was limited, now I can hear more and my time and flow has got better. There's tons of good content on the site, different ways to make your way through it and Dave is always encouraging with great guidance and help

I've been part of Rhythm Skool for almost one year. When I first started, I found many of the exercises challenging. Now, I can comfortably step, clap, and say subdivisions and offbeats. The drummer in our rock band has noticed my improvement and I am feeling more and more confident playing on time and with feeling (I play lead and rhythm guitar.). Dave is an awesome teacher! He is very supportive and always available!

I've been doing the rhythm exercises for a few months now and already I feel much more relaxed playing,and the exercises are paying big dividends. Dave has a great, relaxed way of imparting the information in a really practical way and it really works !! I highly recommend Dave as a teacher,really great.
