Things to Remember
-- Footing: when to step, where to step, how far it needs to be from the taiko.
-- Always have balance and control, especially during spinning.
-- Extend arms and make big motions.
-- Vivian's Knocking exercise: "transfer of energy" during Bar 10.
-- Bachi's drag: the head of the bachi has a slight drag. The bachi should NOT be a solid extension of your arm.
