In this lesson you will be placing accents on 'a' counts in a tripple paradiddle. These switch between different hands depending on which beat of the bar you are on. The accents on counts 2 and 4 are on the second stroke of a double which can be a difficult movement, start out slow and gradually build up speed when you are comfortable with the movement. When working through the patterns below, make sure any accents that fall on a left hand are played at the same volume as those on a right hand.
