About the Camp...
The goal of the camp is to introduce beginners to North American taiko, a dynamic and relatively new Asian American art form with roots in Japan. The philosophy of the camp is to provide an environment for participants which creates a sense of community and a positive attitude towards diversity and creativity.

Instructors for the camp are selected from performing members of San Jose Taiko and Stanford Taiko . San Jose Taiko members bring with them professional performing experience and a 26-year history of training South Bay youth through their Junior Taiko program . Members of Stanford Taiko bring considerable dedication to the art form and boundless energy and ideas for sharing taiko with others.
