The Australian Taiko Academy invites you and your family to learn to play the fascinating, awe-inspiring taiko, a Japanese percussion instrument. A range of interactive classes and workshops are available for kids, teens and adults.
You don't need to have a musical background to take part - just an enthusiasm to join in the fun! Taiko playing is a great teamwork activity that is energetic, invigorating and always enjoyable. Plus regular taiko playing has a range of wonderful benefits such as aiding relaxation, reducing stress and encouraging self-expression.
