Discover the power and energy of Japanese ensemble drumming in this beginner-friendly course. Students will explore the rich history and modern evolution of taiko while learning essential dojo routines, stance, and drumming techniques.

No prior musical or drumming experience is required—just bring your energy and enthusiasm!
