Since our beginning in 1990, Fushu Daiko has practiced joyously in the pursuit of ever increasing mastery of taiko drumming, understanding, and appreciation in the way of taiko, Japanese culture, and all of life.

Fushu Daiko is made up of many nationalities and backgrounds, yet we have been drawn together by the taiko. Through it's sound Fushu Daiko wishes to create a sense of connection in the hearts of those who hear the taiko's beat. The training began with Sensei Yoshiko Cane and Sensei Charles Cane. Then, with generous help from Grandmaster Sensei Seiichi Tanaka of San Francisco Taiko Dojo, Sensei Takemasa Ishikura of Orlando Matsuriza, and Sensei Etsuo Hongo from Los Angeles Matsuri, Fushu Daiko has become powerful and spirited performers in the art of Japanese Taiko Drumming. Based in South Florida we are available for performances of all scales. Taiko Drum Lessons, Educational Workshops, Corporate Events, Weddings, Grand Openings, Private Parties, Festivals, Concerts, and Multi Ethnic Collaborations. Our performance lends power and impact to any gathering.
