Big Drums are Cool!
Have you seen us perform? Curious about Japanese drumming? We've been performing at festivals and local events for 25 years, and we welcome experienced players as well as absolute beginners. After a basic training period, everyone can perform! Classes in our dojo cover different songs each month, and include physical training, taiko history, and of course, plenty of drumming skills. Bring your energy and curiosity to this combination of Japanese drumming, dance, and theatrics and you'll find yourself re-energized and eager to perform.
