Practice with your left more often or start exercises with ur left.There's no magical pill to make your less dominant limb as skillful as your dominant limb. |

But when playing patterns then I notice my left not that responsive. What pattern exercise is best to improve?There's no magical pill to make your less dominant limb as skillful as your dominant limb. |

What pattern exercise is best to improve? Any exercise , just switch to your left foot as the lead foot.Incidentally, unresponsive left foot might be due to independence issue. |

Listen lots of complex music.. until you are natural with it. Limb independency is the key here
