Akemashite omedetou gozaimasu!
明けましておめでとうございます!

It’s hard to believe the holidays are behind us and we’re already more than two weeks into 2019!

We’ve already had a FANTASTIC start to the year! Thanks to everyone who came from near and far to our Shin-en and Bachi Maneuvers workshops – what an awesomely positive way to begin 2019!

And we managed to have a great Introductory Taiko Workshop, despite Mother Nature’s attempts to slow us down with a snowstorm! (psssst, if you missed out on that workshop, we’re already taking registrations for our next Intro Workshop coming up on Sunday, April 28! These workshops have been selling out pretty consistently lately, so if you want to join us, go ahead and sign up now!)

There’s lots more great stuff coming up, starting with the 2019 Shinshun Matsuri and the start of our next Rec Class series – both happening on Sunday, 27 January. We’re also kicking off a brand new Advanced Skills Class focused on timing, bachi control, and speed, which starts on Wednesday, 30 January.

And of course we’re gearing up for this year’s Sakura Taiko Takeover at the Tidal Basin on Sunday, 31 March. Stay tuned for TONS more info on that coming up over the next couple of months!

Wishing you and yours a great new year filled with lots of taiko!
