Inspiring taiko player and teacher, Eien Hunter Ishikawa, posted an interview he conducted with LATI instructor/coach Isaku Kageyama. Both Eien and Isaku are really interesting people. They discuss LATI at about the 45:00 mark and the whole thing is worth listening to.

May Lee of CCTV America interviewed me and came to Yuta's class recently to try taiko. Her segment recently aired.

July 25 marks the 3rd anniversary of Asano Taiko US. Thank you to the students, aikoukai members, staff, family, and friends of our community who have made this milestone possible.
It has been a wild ride, and three years passed in a blink. But through it all we see the power of taiko to connect people. Asano Taiko US' very existence is the result of these connections and the daily support of so many. I am deeply grateful.
Kris' next 12-week course schedule is set!
Starting the week of August 8, three fundamentals courses, four intermediate-advanced courses, and new "office hours" drop-in sessions!
Eien will be visiting LATI this month to teach atarigane and flute and he recently published an interview with LATI's visiting instructor Yeeman Mui (Manman) on his blog.
