Taiko is a cultural art form where you can make music, use your body, be creative, but also work as a team. It can be challenging but at the same time is very accessible. Taiko is fun!

I teach taiko with San Jose Taiko’s 4 Principles as the base – Musical Technique, Kata (Form), Ki (Energy) and Attitude. I believe that each person makes their own taiko journey, and that taiko can teach you about yourself as you also learn how to play the taiko. 

My students have included people with Parkinson’s Disease, families wanting to do something special together, corporate teams, youth with special needs, and other groups of all kinds.
