Taiko is not just percussion music; it is movement, energy, play, rhythm, coordination,
strength, endurance, concentration, and above all, enjoyment. While playing, we work on
listening, both to your teammates and to yourself, presence, the precision of the strike,
and control of our body along with breathing.
Taiko is not just about playing; it is about preparing everything before and after the
practice, the discipline intrinsic to the practice and learning of an oriental art, and the
respect and understanding of its history and origins.
