How To Hold Drum Sticks (Matched Grip) (French, German, And American Style)
In this video, I show you how to hold your drum sticks with the matched grip style. This involves grabbing the stick with your index finger and thumb about three quarters of the way down the drum stick. Then, you must curl the rest of your fingers around the stick in a comfortable position.
The three versions of matched grip are the French, German, and American style. The French style of matched grip involves your palms facing each other. The German style involves your palms facing the ground. The American style is basically a hybrid of both; your palms are basically at a 45 degree angle.
Holding your drum sticks with matched grip in mind is really easy! Follow the instructions in the video and you'll have it mastered in no time!
