Taikotastic

I’ve started to learn Taiko – the art of the Japanese drum. It is very difficult.

I think that the 2 most important qualities needed to be good at taiko are rhythm and flexibility. I possess neither of these, but I don’t intend to let that stop me. Last night was my 2nd class and so far I love it. It’s like nothing that I’ve ever done before, and I’m going to need to work hard to become vaguely competent. Hopefully the enjoyment will keep me motivated and I won’t get too frustrated with my incompetence.
