The cost is $40 for high school students, college students, and Japan-America Society of Pennsylvania members, and $50 for the general public, and registration is completed online.
On Sunday mornings starting November 15, Pittsburgh Taiko will hold a four-week introductory class. This class is for people who are interested in joining our performing group or anyone who wants to just give taiko a try.
Taiko combines energetic hits with calm focus, balances group unity with individual expression, and requires both power and subtlety.
Each class is from 11:30 am to 1:00 pm at our studio in Bellevue.
Dates and times for the four-week course:
Class 1: Sunday, November 15, 11:30 am - 1:00 pm

No experience is necessary! If you recently took one of our workshops, this will be a more in-depth study of some of the topics we introduced there.
These classes are designed for adults and older kids (high school or older). Discounted rates are available for full-time students and JASP members.
Note that our studio is a masked space, and unfortunately it is not accessible to folks who can't climb stairs.
