Jay Toyofuku, Pieper Toyama and Kelcie Miyakawa

People come to taiko drumming for different reasons including: physical activity, performance ambitions, fellowship and social interaction and even as a “spiritual discipline.”

Yet, every student at Pacific Buddhist Academy encounters it as a “required course, with many developing considerable skill in this traditional art. A video of a past performance at an All Believers Network event can be downloaded at: https://spaces.hightail.com/receive/Sqdl3pxTjJ

PBA taiko instructor Jay Toyofuku, former headmaster Pieper Toyama and former student Kelcie Miyakawa will share their respective experiences and insights into how taiko training has guided students beyond individuality into indispensable elements of an integrated and productive group, often providing practical lessons useful when facing the unavoidable difficulties and troubles encountered in daily life.
