In-class practice opportunities

The jiuchi (basebeat) players for the battles are called the "Rock Solids" and we teach a course on the topic at LATI. The coaching session of the course begins January 7, providing three opportunities between then and the battle to run your solo with a proper jiuchi (basebeat). And you're helping our students by providing a real-live soloist. Come play! Session is free but please RSVP.

Group practice

  • Thu Jan 09 7-9pm
  • Wed Jan 15 7-9pm

I'll be hosting two group practice sessions in my basement space. At these sessions we share my few drums to practice and I can provide feedback where necessary. Practice is free but please RSVP.

Taiko Tug
Hey bicycle lovers!.. We'll be meeting at Asano Taiko US and riding over to the gym. It should be a fun, 15-20 minute ride. And we'll be towing the equipment, so if you have a bike trailer or beefy rack and could help cart a small drum or stand, let me know!
