Taiko School House of Circles – More Than Drumming

The Taiko School is the premier music institute in the Netherlands dedicated entirely to the practice and transmission of the Japanese drumming art, known as Taiko. With us, you learn to play powerful rhythms on Japanese drums — from your first encounter to refining virtuosity at a professional level.

For Everyone, from Beginner to Professional
Whether you're just starting out or have been playing for years, the Taiko School offers classes and training for all levels. Our approach centers on technique, musical expression, physical strength, and mental focus. Taiko is music, sport, discipline, and joy — all in one powerful form.

Body and Rhythm as One
Playing Taiko means moving with intention. You’ll develop not only your musicality but also your coordination, endurance, and physical awareness. Rhythm becomes something you feel throughout your whole body. You learn to play from your hara — your center — and discover how music and movement become one.

Eastern Values, Western Accessibility
Our school blends deep respect for Taiko’s Japanese origins with an accessible, open learning environment. Discipline, respect, and cooperation are at the heart of our classes — always with space for individuality and personal growth.

Grow in Rhythm, Strength, and Confidence
Taiko teaches you more than just drumming. It enhances your posture, confidence, and presence — both on stage and beyond. You're invited to learn, feel, and play from within yourself, in connection with others.
