Here are a couple more photographs from the taiko practice...Starting tomorrow, I will be staying with Nobu, another student of Noriko, at a Buddhist temple. I am unsure whether I will have internet connection, so if I am out of touch for a while, that is why!
Professor Takagi in the middle. Enlarge this picture to see the (very cool) intensity.


The class bows...Side note: I really need to learn how to bow properly.

The class drums away.

The many shapes of taiko sticks.
THEY ARE NOT TIAKO STICKS THEY ARE CALLED BATCHI
