TAIKO I

Taiko is the art of Japanese drumming, which develops self-expression and musical creativity. This course engages in Uchikomi based practice. You should have a sense of rhythm and/or stamina to hit drums for two hours. Similar to martial arts practice, students do not wear shoes or socks in class—we practice barefoot. All equipment—including drums and sticks—are provided. There will be a materials fee payable to the instructor at the first class to cover the drumheads replacement. Prospective new students must attend one observation class prior to registering online. Limit 24 students.
