THE DRUMMING BODY DVD - Launching July
2009
Featuring Jack Bennett & Ben Kong
Production on The
Drumming Body DVD is now in full swing and due to
launch mid July 2009. To the 100's of emails we've received on
TBD, we can safely say we are now well on the way and it is
shaping up to be a fantastic release, and completely
different to anything that has ever touched the "physical
analysis" side of drumming.
The Drumming Body stars leading Melbourne personal trainer
Ben Kong, and is an in depth analysis of what happens inside
the body when we play the drums, presented in an easy to
grasp and digestable DVD volume, with myself as the
guinea pig.
Topics covered such as:
* Analysis of drumming movement and physiology
* Functional training for injury prevention
* Mobility patterns and joint protection
* Combating chronic pain caused from drumming the wrong way |
