Amazing Taiko Lesson from a Master Taiko performer

After an amazing samurai session,I knew this day was going to be a hell of an amazing ride. I was so excited to what i was going to endure next. And with courage i asked the instructor. Where are we going next, She said,"Taiko" I honestly had no clue of what Taikko even is. Then i searched it up on the internet and i found out that taiko is traditional japanese drumming. To be honest, I did not really care in the beginning. But as soon as the Taiko class started, it all changed my mind.....

Our teacher was a bundle of joy and was the most skilled drummer i have ever seen in my life. I also really loved the way he functioned the lesson. To me it was not boring at all. Matter of fact, the Taiko lesson is honeslty my most favourite class considering that taiko builds teamwork with the people among us.

Other than that, the taiko lesson in my opinion was very relaxing and enjoyable. Not only we had a hilarious teacher, we also learned the basics and beats of taiko drumming. And even though the taiko lesson was very very tiring, in the end it all paid off because at the end of the lesson, we had to perform in front of our teachers. And even though i was doubting myself in the beginning, the encouragement and helo from the teacher really build up my confidence.

There were different types of funky and interesting beats we learned when we had the taiko lesson. Such as the chu-daiko technique and the nagado technique. Snd for the performance, we had to divide the sections into 4 different groups. Section A, sectoin B, Section C, section D, snd Section E. I enjoyed section C the most because I was the person who came out with that particular section. We also learned how to appreciate the sticks when drumming because there was a pong history to it.

And finnally the teacher who was a proffessional taiko performer, gave us a dazzling performance. He Amazed us with his hand speed and difficult techniques. I really enjoyed the performance and i am pretty sure all of my friends do too. And as he bowed down when finishing. We clapped as hard as we could for our taiko teacher.

And if I come across this amazing taiko lesson again, I would do it wothout thinking twice. Because I know I will have a great time.

Samurai Session

As the cold breeze of air passed by my face, I was aroused of what this journey in japan will take me next. Disney Sea, The Japanese skytree, and Ramen were the three things that filled my head with joy and excitement. And when I was bursting with curiousity of what My friends and I were going to do in this jaw-dropping spectacular place, With pleasure I asked the instructor. “What are the activities we going to do today?”

And with joy she said first we are going to do samurai training and second Taiko workshop and lastly we did a little bit of shopping in Asa Kusa . And this is how amazing journey wen’t.

The Samurai training was spectacular. The sensei was named Ryu and he was very mirthful and kind. The samurai lesson itself was truly one of a kind. It was very educative and enjoyable. I learned a lot of different self defence techniques and also the basics of ancient samurai.

Other than that, I endured a tough and tiring lesson. But like in every amazing fairy tales, hard work will end up in success and joy. And that was what exactly happend to me.

Furthermore, I had a lot of support from the teachers and parents that made me believe in myself even more.

Also, other than just learning ancient samurai, we got to try out some of the amazing and traditional samurai clothing which the masters of Samurai wore back in the ancient times.

All in all. This was a great experience to endure. I know i wouldn’t be able to go through this amazing experience again twice but, if i encounter this again in the future, I would do it all again without hesitation.
