Buy The App!!
I’m a somewhat new drummer and was looking for an app to help with practicing rudiments…. This is the app you need. It has a great video intro to each rudiment along with a loopable follow along notation and metronome. Seriously, best purchase for my practice regime.
Love it!!!
This is perfect. As a beginner, this kind of clear and easy to follow guide to rudiments and paradiddles is invaluable. Love the play along tempo graphic as it really helps to get a rhythm going. I have now made this part of my daily practice routine as I slowly move through the different disciplines gaining speed at my own pace.
Not being funny but you can’t buy a second hand pair of drums sticks for £2.49 so to get this kind of quality tuition and practice material for that is a bargain.
I can only agree with the other reviewer and look forward to Drum Gym 2
Just brilliant!

Absolute Gold!!:
Thanks you. A five star app!! Great!
Great app for beginners
What an amazing resource for a beginner drummer. He doesna great job of going over each rudiment, but I especially like that you get to practice with an onscreen guide and can set the tempo you want to practice at.
Great app!
Really gray application. Hope this one continues to stay up to date with future iOS updates.
Perfect
Excellent drum practice app. Honestly it’s probably the best drum app available for practices. Every lesson is important as well as presented in a meaningful thoughtful way.
If you’re learning drums this is essential. Even if you’re a veteran this is still useful.

Very helpful!
I love the app. The best part for me is that you can put the rudiments on a loop and practice them over and over. Mike Sturgis is great on this as well.
A couple small fixes are needed: For me I’m not able to save favorites, once I close the app and come back they’re gone. Second the flamacue is missing the intro, which is a bummer because that’s a particularly tricky rudiment for me. Thanks!

Really enjoy this app
I use this on an iPad and really enjoy using it. Mr. Sturgis explains and demonstrates the rudiments on a pad, and then at fast and slow speed on a snare. The notation is below so you can see what he's playing. Then the practice screen lets you set your own tempo and practice along. Having played for 48 years, and never been really good at the rudiments, this is helping me catch up on what I should have done many years ago. Great stuff

Massive Amount of Content
This is by far the best drum tuition app I have (and I have most of them). There is enough to give beginner drummers a nudge in the right direction and plenty to keep more advanced drummers busy on the kit for years.
The tuition videos are very detailed and tell you everything you need to know to get started. One bugbear is the the tuition video plays each time you select a new excercise, which can be a bit annoying.
Overall though, easily a 5 star app. If you're looking for something new to learn/ practice on the drums you won't be disappointed here. It's a serious attempt at a comprehensive drum tuition app with masses of content you won't find anywhere else.
I hope there will more from Mike in the future - maybe a Drum Gym 2?

Amazingly good
This is absolutely the best app I could find on rudiments. Each rudiment has a how to video in slow and regular speeds. To top it off it includes a metronome for practice and more videos on how to apply the rudiments on the set. I'm grateful this app was created! 100% 5 Stars!!!!
Incredibly Useful Tool!
This app is a wonderful combination of technical exercises and practical application. The synthesis of live video and the sequenced practice environment creates an amazingly useful tool. As the director of drumset studies at a major university for many years, I highly endorse this product.
Very pleased with purchase
Nicely done. Easy to use and clearly explained. No complaints from me. Would like to see more content added down the road
Best Drum App!
I would recommend this app to all musicians.
It's great for beginners and got some really cool ideas for pros.
Im gonna get a lot from this app, I'm also gonna use it with my students and get them to practice using it for home work.
Defo worth the money.

Great app!
I'm on and iPad3 and the app installed like a dream. Once installed, well, what can I say…Mike 'The Oracle' Sturgis is a legend and I'm loving the app! Loving 'The Gaddamacue':-)
Broken...Doesn't load on Ipad Air
I get a loading screen, then just nothing.. Waste of money
