Smoothly transition in & out of studio-worthy fills that YOU improvise on the fly - in just 4 days.
Are you a self-taught beginner drummer struggling with fills?
- You feel like you have no idea what to play
- You can’t smoothly transition in & out of fills
- You struggle to pick out fills in a song by ear
- You struggle to create & improvise your own fills
Then you’ve gotta come to the Play Effortless Fills Challenge!
You could be smoothly transitioning in & out of studio-worthy fills that YOU improvised on the fly - in just 4 days.
Whether you’re playing at your church, playing in a rock, pop, or country cover band - Or you’re just playing for fun in your basement - This live 4-day challenge will give you the know-how and the confidence to start nailing your fills like a pro.
DATE: March 2-5, 2026
In Just 4 Days, Here's What You'll Learn:
⏰ Day 1: Play the right fill at the right time (“What makes every great fill WORK”)
Learn the 2 types of fills you'll always encounter in music, and play the right fill at the right time by using the Fills Map. This is the simple logic behind what makes every great fill work.
🚀 Day 2: Smoothly transition in & out of fills (“How do I smoothly get in & out of my fills?”)
Use the power of "Fill Vehicles" to create better-sounding, more musical fills automatically (AND flow in and out of them much more easily!)
🎼 Day 3: Craft a musical fill that fits ("How do I make sure my fill fits the music?")
Build off of what you learned on Day 2 to continue using "Fill Vehicles" to craft musical, compelling fills that fit the song and sound like they belong on a record!
🧠 Day 4: Improvise limitless fills without a "mental fill library" (“How can I craft unlimited fill ideas?”)
Learn Fill Multiplication so that you can create unlimited fills without digging into a "mental library" of pre-rehearsed fills.
What You'll Walk Away With:
✅ Studio-worthy fills that you're effortlessly crafting on the fly
✅ Confidence in your fill transitions (no more fear of train-wrecks!)
✅ Impact & authority in your playing that wasn't there before
✅ A step-by-step system for creating, orchestrating, and executing fills in a simple, achievable way

💬 P.S. - Would you like feedback on your playing?
Do you have questions about anything? - Any areas where you need clarity & direction?
Then come hang out with me an hour early each day for the Q&A coaching session!
We'll spend a full hour answering your questions live. Questions like...
- "Am I gripping my sticks right?"
- "Am I practicing the right things?"
- "How does my bass drum foot look?"
- "Is my drumset adjusted right?"
...Literally whatever questions you have, whether they have to do with fills or hihat adjustment or anything else - I'm here to serve you and give you the clarity & direction you need to keep moving forward.
Grab a VIP ticket and come at 10:30am Eastern each morning for Q&A coaching, then join the rest of the group at 11:30am for the main teaching session.
Spots are limited! We're only opening 30 slots for the VIP session, so if this is for you... don't delay registering. I'll see you there!
P.S. - These live Q&A sessions will be recorded, and the replays will be available for you to watch / review for the duration of the challenge. However, you'll need to be there live in order to ask a question.
