Taiko drumming - "Wadaiko" - is an energetic, physical and highly choreographed art form. Originally from Japan, with roots going back hundreds of years and encompassing a variety of styles, rhythms and movement, this traditional folk art is now developing and spreading as a modern European art form.

Now is the chance for people here in Scotland to experience a workshop of this exciting discipline which is energetic & fun & learnt alongside other taiko enthusiasts!

This session will take place from 6:30 - 8:00 pm.

The workshop is designed to be suitable for both beginners & improvers, and will take the participants step by step from the stance, to the bachi drumstick grip through to learning a short performance piece. You will learn to play the Shichisan Juichi plus a short piece called Hina Daiko.

Please contact us on info@taiko.co.uk or 01357 522 008 for more details and to reserve your space.
