Being part of such an important event for the European taiko community, surrounded by amazing artists, teachers, and taiko players from different countries, was a real honor.
Having the opportunity to teach my TaikOnStage workshop at the incredible Taiko Concerts Night, organized by Kaiser Drums, was an amazing experience. I feel very lucky and grateful for the trust that Kaiser Drums placed in me by inviting me to be part of this event. Thank you!
I would also like to sincerely thank Benni Hass for the excellent organization, for taking care of every detail, and for making the workshop program possible at an event that has already become an important meeting point for the European taiko community.
Being able to share my way of understanding movement, stage presence, and the connection between the body, music, and emotion with so many people who love taiko was a deeply rewarding experience. Seeing the passion, enthusiasm, and willingness to learn from every participant reminded me once again why I love doing this.
Above all, this experience made me feel appreciated and valued. Every conversation, every smile, every hug, and every kind word from the people who joined the workshop made this experience much more than just a class. It was a meeting of people connected by the same passion and the desire to keep growing together.
Thank you also to everyone who took part in TaikOnStage for your energy, your trust, and your commitment.
