You can learn taiko at our upcoming workshops! Here’s the info from our website:
In our popular workshops, new drummers learn taiko fundamentals such as kata (form), kiai (vocalization) and kumidaiko (ensemble drumming). Translation: Look really cool while yelling and hitting things with friends!
Using our entire bodies to drum, we’ll explore first-hand the mesmerizing, heart-pounding power of taiko. It’s an invigorating experience for body and spirit!
Participants in the Youth workshop will enjoy fun musical games that incorporate movement and vocalization as we learn about respect in Japanese culture and phrases in Japanese. Using the oral tradition of passing down taiko rhythms, we’ll learn and play a taiko song.
No experience is necessary! ONE brings enthusiastic and encouraging instructors and all necessary drums and equipment. Participants bring plenty of energy, spirit, and joy! Space is limited, so sign up today!
