# Combining Strokes Exercise
In this exercise, we're going to look at combining what we've learned from playing the single strokes and the double strokes.
### Structure:
- **One bar of single strokes**
- **One bar of doubles**
- **One bar of singles**
- **One bar of doubles**
It's the same format:
**I'll play, you play. I'll play, you play.**
**Here we go:**
1, 2, 3, 4. Great!

# Paradiddles Exercise
In the next exercise, we're going to play:
- **Two bars of double strokes**
- **Two bars of paradiddles**
### Important Note:
Remember, with the paradiddles, the sticking naturally reverses each bar because you play singles and then end with a double. So, you'll naturally then lead with the other hand.
**Here we go:**
1, 2, 3, 4.
