Adult Recreational Track Classes
Recreational classes offer a great opportunity to experience this unique art form in a fun and supportive setting. Participants will learn basic technique, history and etiquette but classes are hands on providing a physical and mental workout as we weave traditional and modern rhythms into dynamic music of celebration.
All students start with our 2.5 hr. Introductory Taiko Intensive Workshop which is offered four times annually. From this point, qualified individuals who wish to train with Taiko Charleston join our Basic Introductory Intensive Series or Community Drumming/Daytime Series.
