Orlando Taiko Dojo

Orlando Taiko Dojo is a Japanese taiko drumming troupe that performs across Central Florida. It is the sister team of Matsuriza, the drum troupe that plays at EPCOT in Walt Disney World, and the Dojo is also the group’s teaching arm.

Taiko is the traditional art of Japanese drumming. The big drums have been played for over two thousand years, in religious ceremonies and village festivals and even on battlefields. The group performs with the rolling, driving rhythms and bold choreography that make taiko a favorite at festivals.
