And, unlike most materials on the subject, Tiger Bill demonstrates how NOT to as well as how to. Simply put, this is a great resource. –Ed Soph – Drummer, clinician, author, teacher. I play relaxed, tension free and better than I did when I was playing professionally in NYC 25 years ago. Tiger Bill even gives you stretches to do. With my tendonitis, the stretches have been helpful. I am gaining speed, power, and endurance everyday, PAIN FREE! All I can say is “Thank You Tiger Bill” and “This Works”! –Theodora Mason I have both volumes. The material presented is something I find myself referencing over and over again and I have been playing drums for over 45 years. Tiger Bill really knows how to clearly explain the techniques and exercises he demonstrates on the DVD’s, and he uses great analogies. I recommended this for all levels, beginner to pro. –JM Apart from the fantastic amount of information on this DVD, Tigerbill also demonstrates each exercise with full ease and control.

Welcome to the Future of Drumming – Limited-Time discount on shipments anywhere in the USA! Hey, I’m Tiger Bill Meligari. I have spent more than 40 years improving the old traditional methods of drumming, including systems originally used by Billy Gladstone, George Lawrence Stone, and Sanford Moeller. The result is a system of drumming that allows me, and will allow you, to play at maximum power and speed with endurance to spare and with precise control of every stroke. But the best part is that you will be able to accomplish all of this without using tension. You may be familiar with the traditional Moeller Whip stroke as used by the late Jim Chapin and others but my modification of this stroke produces 50 percent more power without any additional effort. And that’s only one of the many modifications I have made to the old traditional drum techniques. Over the years thousands of drummers from all over the world have traveled to my East Coast Drum Studio for private lessons in Tension Free Drumming. Now, for the first time, I am thrilled to be able to offer you this system on DVD. This, the first volume, TigerBill’s Concepts of Tension Free Drumming: Hand Technique Volume 1 contains the core of my Tension Free Drumming techniques. Using my Wrist and Finger techniques you’ll learn how you can play at top speed with incredible endurance, extreme power, and total precision but without the dangers that Tension-Based methods can cause! In a unique split-screen video presentation where you are the student, you will learn my exclusive techniques from the same viewpoint that you would if you were to take private lessons with me. After you’ve finished with my first volume, I am certain that you will want to move onto the second that […]
Pick up Volume 2 – Advanced Techniques at a limited-time discount and learn my Advanced Tension Free Drumming Techniques Today – Ships Anywhere in the USA! IMPORTANT NOTE: If you haven’t studied my first volume yet, I highly recommend buying that first.

Filmed in the same split screen method as Volume 1, which shows you my hands just as if you were taking a live lesson with me plus a view of you looking at your own hands as you play. This is what allows you to learn the proper movements from the most important angles. No other DVD on the market is currently produced this way and nothing else you can buy goes into the amount of detail you need to be able to actually learn the techniques correctly without the help of a qualified instructor.
