Two chances to try taiko this spring!

01.29.2019 by Heather Mitchell-Buck //

Big News!

Our Introductory Taiko Workshops have been super popular lately … so we’ve added a second one this April!

If you (or a friend, or a family member, or a random person you were chatting with at Starbucks) have been wanting to try taiko, now is the perfect time. Join us on either Saturday, 27 April or Sunday, 28 April in Takoma Park and learn what it’s like to play a drum with your whole body!

These workshops have been selling out fast … and with Cherry Blossom season coming up soon, we know we’ll have a lot of folks who want to get in on the fun. Don’t miss out – register today!

Random Acts of Taiko

Instagram post 2187200705110281113_1429089292 I have much to be thankful for in my life but I’m dedicating today’s appreciation and love to this beautiful, spirited warrior of a girl I have the privilege of calling my niece. Always strong, she redefines what it means to “have heart” and reminds me that life is such a precious gift. I love you ❤️
Instagram post 2184568427062372594_1429089292 In Georgia at #TallulahFalls with Kristen on a long overdue getaway. Lots of mist, lots of stairs (didn’t skip leg-day!) and the cutest baby goat named Moo!  #randomactsofliving #goatsontheroof🐐 #georgiaonmymind
Instagram post 2167888250320222206_1429089292 Always great to have taiko visitors from other groups come by and give us a sense of perspective! Halloween perspective came to @miyakotaiko practice all the way from Argentina in the form of super-passionate taiko player, @marina_ruuu ! Thanks for coming by and sharing your story and enthusiasm!
Instagram post 2156666480858815148_1429089292 @nendaiko today’s (well, recent) challenge brings to mind the smallest drum I ever made which was for my niece on her 1st birthday. #smallestdrum #randomactsoftaiko #uncletaiko #taikolove
