Workshops available worldwide
Learn the power of taiko from a master who spent 20 years with Ondekoza.
Learn. Move. Play. Create.
Whether you are an established taiko ensemble, a school, university, community group, festival, or arts organization, Marco can create a workshop that challenges, inspires, and gives your participants something they can take back to their own playing.
Bring Marco's four decades of experience with Ondekoza and Taikoza to your group.
Workshops are available for groups, schools, festivals, and organizations. Contact Marco to discuss your workshop.
