When I came to Japan, the big thing I wanted to get involved in was taiko (Japanese drumming). Things like martial arts and ikebana (flower arranging) don’t hold too much interest for me, but large drums definitely have an appeal. For quite a while I was disappointed because I couldn’t find a taiko group to join. But that all changed.
A few weeks ago, I went to a performance of a taiko group in the next town over. After the performance, they invited me and my friends to practice with the group. So on Wednesday night, two friends and I went to their practice. It was lots of fun. I can’t wait for practice next week.
