Ahead 14″ Carbon S-Hoop Corp Practice Pad

Katia de Peyer $ 75.59
Description Specifically developed to recreate the unique performance characteristics of a marching band, the 14” AHSHP “S-Hoop Marching Pad” mimics the tension of a tightly tuned head on a marching drum for realistic practice. Its full-size head features a hard carbon fiber surface and a metal plate on the bottom, giving it a light snare sound effect when stricken. The S-Hoop counterhoop allows for real rimshots and cross-sticks. The padded bottom allows for the pad to be placed on top of a standard 14” drum during indoor or outdoor drills.

About the Author

About the Author

Katia de Peyer’s first book Dancing with MySelf, Sensuous Exercises for Body, Mind and Spirit (Nucleus Publications, 1991; La Source Press, 2026) introduced her method of inner-centering through movement, hailed by Diane von Furstenberg as a whole new attitude about exercising. Her second book Enjoy Your Healing Power (La Source Press, 2025) is an intuitive, helpful guide for developing our healing power.  A ballet dancer born in Paris who lived in Spain to further her studies in flamenco, Katia moved to New York in the late sixties to start a successful career as a personal trainer. There she met the virtuoso clarinettist Gervase de Peyer in 1976.  She and Gervase married in 1980 and lived for two decades in the US and then in the UK until Gervase’s death in 2017.  Katia continues her work as a writer and healer in London and New York.
