What is a drummer’s groove? According to Adam Gust, it’s achieving “feeling fluency,” and both art and science are behind the process. As the only Polyvagal-Informed professional drummer, Adam has devoted years to understanding how the nervous system impacts his ability to perform—how mind, body, and feeling work together to create results. He shares an exercise he uses to coordinate all three.
