ChōDaiko Taiko Group

To me, taiko is extremely healing: it is full of power, community, spirit, support, freedom, fun, and it brings us back to our natural selves before troubles entered our lives. In the Buddhist tradition, Sangha means community or those we travel with, and community gives us strength, as does taiko and the taiko community. With taiko and community we can recovery from all kinds of trauma and troubles we carry.

Support this effort to help heal people in St. Paul/Minneapolis through the art of taiko.
