"TAIKO BASICS" Beginner Taiko Course

Through out the year we will be teaching a beginner taiko course called "TAIKO BASICS." Please check our calendar for details on the date, time, and location for the classes.

Each class will cover a different but related topic: "Ji Uchi" and "Ou Uchi" rhythms; "Kata" and movement; "Kumi Daiko" performance techniques. Students can take individual classes, but are encouraged to take the full course.

After completing "Taiko Basics" students can continue taiko lessons by joining our "Community Group."

Fees and registration is being managed via EventBrite, and our classes can be found by searching the events on their site: EventBrite



SPECIAL TAIKO WORKSHOPS

Tatsumaki Taiko also conducts 1-day workshops for schools, team-building and other special events. Our 1-day taiko workshops are limited to a maximum of 16 students, and are designed mainly for beginners - no prior taiko or drumming experience is required. The workshops are normally 3 hours in length. All taiko equipment will be provided; students are advised to dress in workout gear, since taiko involves some strenuous physical activity.

If you would like to schedule a workshop or want more information, please contact us:

Phone: (510) 548-3508 (please leave a message), or via e-mail:
tatsumaki@email.com.
