Public Workshops at the Exeter Phoenix
Occasional Sundays, .

Throughout the year, we run "Taste of Taiko" workshops on occasional Sunday mornings at the Exeter Phoenix Arts Centre.  The Phoenix is about 2 mins walk from Exeter Central station, and is located off Gandy Street, between the central library and the Royal Albert Memorial Museum.

These workshops are intended for adult beginners (age 16+).  Unless you've been playing taiko on a weekly basis for about six months, you will probably qualify as a "beginner".  Participants report that they continue to enjoy and learn from up to two or three of these sessions.

The format varies, but generally includes an introduction to playing drums in a variety of positions, and culminates with a three-part ensemble performance by the participants.  Yes, you can do this in just two and a half hours!  Expect to get warm - we recommend you wear t-shirt and track suit trousers or similar and that you bring a bottle of water with you.  Please note that taiko is a physical activity and that you need to be comfortable with moderate exertion. 

To book a place, please confirm availability with us first by emailing us.  Once we have confirmed that there's room for you, you can pay in advance either by cheque, or via PayPal.  Only prior payment will guarantee your place.  Please don't hesitate to phone us on 01392 494486 or email if you have any questions.

We run short courses from time to time for people in the Exeter area who have taken a workshop or two and who are interested in joining Kagemusha Festival Group.
