NATC 2025 Phoenix

Curious about katsugi okedo? Had a little bit of practice but want to understand the basics? This workshop is for you! We’ll start with how to tie the strap and fit the drum to your body, as well as understand similarities – and differences – to other taiko. But the majority of this workshop will be spent striking the front head with both the right and left hands, and giving people different options for both to help everyone find what works best for them! You’ll leave the workshop with a solid foundation to grow on!

Prerequisite/What to bring: 1 pair katsugi okedo bachi
