- Triplet feel

Inifinity Migi (A)
- Flower/Arm Twirl/Pancake flip technique
- Think about making small circles on the left and right of the drum
- If thought in sets of 3, 1 hit will be on the close side of the drum and 2 hits will be on the far side. Opposite on the next grouping of 3 hits.
- Focus on completing circles by using more elbow on both sides of the body
- Twist at the hip to reach the opposite sides of the drum--keep the axis of the body upright and dont lean over --- only twist

Triangle Migi (B)
- Played with the right foot a step forward--idea is to be more in front of the drum like a 'half-x-pattern' type of stance
- "Painting" technique
- Shift your weight onto the left or right foot to emphasize the Don's

Inifinity Migi (C)

Triangle Migi (B)
- Practice the yoko-uchi style L-hand don
