Meet at Kyoto Station for a 10-minute train ride, followed by an 10-minute ride in the Taiko Studio’s private car to the venue.
First, you’ll get a brief explanation of Taiko’s history, showing its importance in Japanese culture.
Next, you’ll try simple calligraphy, writing your wishes on a Hachimaki (a traditional Japanese headband).
You’ll then watch an amazing powerful Taiko demonstration by a professional player.
After that, a friendly instructor will teach you the basic movements and techniques of Taiko drumming.
Finally, you’ll play a simple piece of music with your fellow participants. It will be a wonderful memory in Japan.

The experience ends with a commemorative photo in traditional Japanese costume, including a Happi and Hachimaki.
