Classes
Our classes are defined by Age, Type, and Experience. This allows everyone to experience and grow individually while being challenged by others with similar abilities.
In addition, we also provide one-on-one training as well as semi-private lessons (2-4 people). While we are not a full-service gym, we will have basic fitness equipment that will allow us to train any group or individual through many facets of athletic training. Our studio will also be available for Birthday Parties, Corporate Team Building or Special Events.
A Unique Teaching Aspect of our Studio
Our foremost goal is to provide the ability for each of our participants to improve upon who they were yesterday. Each day, we strive to do better and be better/do more and become better.
However, we also believe it is our responsibility to find those individuals (typically between 14 and 18 years old) who would like to lead. We frequently seek out those individuals and provide them the opportunity to Student Teach by assisting an instructor. And, eventually, under this mentorship, they train to lead a class or classes (monitored by the lead instructor.)
To see an individual achieve their potential is an amazing experience. But, to watch someone become a leader and teach others… is truly wonderful.

Taiko is the Japanese word for drum and refers to the modern style of playing these drums. Wadaiko (in Japan) and Kumi Daiko (in North America) is movement-infused, heart-pounding, dynamic group drumming. Think of it as a high-energy performance art that combines music, dance, martial arts, athletics, and culture.
