Term 4

Fees

$25

SOLD OUT!

All Levels

Uchikomi-geiko (All welcome) | December 10 (Th) 7:15-8:15pm | Ian Cleworth

Uchikomi – “to beat with intent” and keiko – “practice”, or on a deeper level, “to inherit teachings from previous times”. More than just warming up, uchikomi is an important part of taiko – it’s about beating with your whole body, heart and mind! In this session Ian will lead you through a series of unfolding rhythms… see you at the end!
