1, toe-flat tread method: both feet follow the ground and toes step on the ground. Because this kind of play uses the strength of ankle and calf, it belongs to the minimum strength compared with other stepping methods. Therefore, it is used more in jazz to distinguish drums.

2, thigh stepping method: toe stepping on the pedal, the foot root is raised. When hitting the ball, lift it with your whole thigh and step on it with your whole thigh. Because the thigh is much heavier than the calf, this stepping method deliberately keeps the heel from lifting, so that a fulcrum can be formed. When the thigh is stepped on, the leg can completely fall back into the drum, which can produce a lot of volume. This stepping method is suitable for music with heavy rhythm.

3, thigh heel stepping method: after stepping on the thigh stepping method, at the same time make up the weight of the heel. The stepping method that needs to step on a certain point with very strong strength is to make the music feel stressed down, so it should be treated as the thigh stepping method in general percussion music.
