Taiko is a dynamic art form based on traditional Japanese drumming practiced all over the world. This workshop is designed to introduce the basics of taiko technique, practice of kumidaiko (ensemble drumming), awareness of ki (energy), use of koe (voice), history and philosophy — all while having a good time!

No experience necessary, but come ready for a workout! This introductory taiko workshop is for ages 13 & up. Drums are provided.

Register and pay online with House of Musical Traditions!

Register Here or call (301) 270-9090.

Register early — our workshops have been very popular and often fill up!

This workshop (or previous taiko experience) is a prerequisite for Mark’s ongoing Recreational Taiko Classes. We’ll have a new class starting up in May after this workshop!
