京都の和太鼓体験

A great and enjoyable experience to learn the history and art of taiko drumming. Our host Michael and ‘drummer’ were fantastic!

This is a fantastic introduction into the world of taiko including history and a demonstration by a professional - amazing! Michie, our guide, was a wealth of information and made our family feel comfortable and welcome. The instructor, who was also the professional demonstrator, was brilliant. He was positive, patient and very encouraging when teaching us the drumming piece. This is a must do when in Kyoto.

This was a wonderful experience from start to finish! Our guide and host Michiko was friendly, informative and professional and our Taiko teacher Aoi, was friendly, a great teacher and a super Taiko drummer! It was a really fun experience for our entire family.

The taiko experience was exceptional. It was a fun, cultural and instructive experience enjoyed by the whole family, a highlight of our trip to Japan. Akemi was remarkable and made this time a treasure to remember.

Meeting our host Mie was easy at Kyoto station and the train trip and car ride to the studio took less than 30 mins, very easy. The drumming was challenging for us beginners but we managed (with friendly encouragement from our instructor & Mie) to beat out a great tune! Highly recommend!

My first time in Kyoto visiting my Japanese friend . We loved this show ! The drummers and flutist were so amazingly talented ! They were professional and gave 100% of themselves during the show ! We felt so energized afterwards and took us awhile to calm down because you can feel the beat of the drums in your whole body . Really fun !

The Taiko experience was a lot of fun! It’s a professional drumming studio and the drums we are high quality … they make such a satisfying sound. The teachers led us in a structured yet enjoyable way. Highly recommend

This a lot of fun and gives you an appreciation for hard taiko is. Michiko was very engaging and helpful. The instructor was great.

Michiko met us at the train station and led us to the TAIKO studio. 1st we learned about the history behind TAIKO drumming, next, we got to watch a live performance, then it was our turn to bang the drums! We made our own headbands with KANJI characters depicting our hopes, dreams, and goals and after learning a song donned an official looking happi for our final performance which we videoed! The whole experience was so different and amazing, it is something everyone should put on their Japan experience bucket list.

Very cool and informational Very patient instructor makes it super easy to follow along
