Japanese Taiko Drum Lesson in Kyoto
1 h
Class
About this activity
Meet your expert instructor at the taiko dojo (studio), located in central Kyoto. Start with some pre-session exercises to stretch your body in preparation for your 1-hour drum lesson; getting limber will help you avoid any strain during your introductory workshop — perfect for beginners.
Learn how to properly hold the rounded wooden sticks, called bachi, before you begin beating the taiko drums. Your instructor will first teach your small group to play basic rhythms, using drills in a fun atmosphere. After some practice, you’re soon ready to play a song together, energized by the rhythm of reverberating drums.
With a sense of accomplishment at the end of your lesson, you may be excited to learn more!

We had a great time our Sensei was very clear and concise on what he wanted us to do. He taught with a lot of energy, pride and enthusiasm he didn't make us feel like we were just another class coming thru the door. We got so into it we actually developed blisters. Will definitely do it again.
