BUY THE PACKET HERE
The Mallets section of The Packet is designed to develop all the necessary 2-mallet and 4-mallet skills for any level percussionist.

The 2-mallet portion is centered around understanding essential music theory, introducing and improving reading skills and building efficient movement around the keyboard.

The 4-mallet section develops fundamental and advanced techniques necessary to perform all levels of literature. Vertical strokes, independent strokes, permutations, one-handed rolls, and other 4-mallet skills are thoroughly addressed.

Reading Skills
The one skill that percussionists tend to avoid is "mallet reading". Using a sequential design, The Packet teaches the student to be comfortable behind the keyboard while keeping his/her eyes on the music. No more memorizing music just to be able to perform it.
2-Mallet Skills
Developing efficient movement around the keyboard is crucial for higher level music. By using fundamental music theory, The Packet develops a wide variety of 2-mallet skills.
4-MALLET TECHNIQUE
Prior to performing 4-mallet literature, the student must be comfortable with the essential techniques of 4-mallets. The Packet explains and builds the vertical and double vertical strokes, independence, alternating independence through permutations, laterals, one-handed rolls and triple laterals. 
4-MALLET EXERCISES
Proper technique is wasted unless it can be applied to music. In The Packet there are multiple pages that work this very concept: applying the essential strokes to music using chords, chord progressions, etc.
