This is exactly what I've been looking for! I've recently become very interested in this great art form but wanted to learn more about the patterns and technique, so I can understand better what I'm listening to. Your videos are great. Regards.

I have been playing taiko in a couple of groups in Japan for some years now, and I'll be going to my home country soon where I want to start a taiko group.
So, I've been looking into how to actually teach basics, and these videos are quite good ^_^
(I basically went into one group first, where we did some basic stuff on the first day, and from that point on we just did songs. When I entered another group, they knew I already played taiko in the first group, so we also just went straight into songs. My point is that I never really did any basics, so I have no idea how they are tought :P )

I came looking for Japanese drum patterns because I wrote a song about a friend who's having a hard time away from home, and turns out my melody is おつり😮
