Amazing Taiko Drum Experience! We had such an incredible time at the Tempo Drums Taiko experience! The energy was absolutely electric from start to finish — the drumming was powerful, fun, and completely immersive. The instructors were so engaging and made it easy for everyone to join in, no matter their age or skill level. Our kids especially loved it and haven’t stopped talking about it since! It’s the perfect mix of music, movement, and teamwork. We’d definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable experience!
A fun way to try Taiko

A fun emersive playful experiance. The hosts were excellent and we had a great time on the drums. I was sightly sceptical when I booked but enjoyed myself! This isn't a history lesson it's a fun hands on activity!

Absolutely amazing experience. The 4 instructors were high energy and really fun. If you are in Osaka it’s a must do. Don’t need any musical experience to get 100% enjoyment. The entrance is at the top of the escultor (floor 2)
Fantastic fun

Being Taiko players in the UK and having done some training in Japan in the past, this was the best pert of our trip. We had difficulty downloading the video we went back to watch the actual show. Afterwards the guys helped us do this as our Japanese is embryonic! Amazing experience and. We will do it again when we get back to Osaka one day! Thank you so much

As professional musicians we always wanted to play on a Taiko drum! And this experience gave us this chance. It was a very energetic show, where you learned some rythems on the drums in a very playful way! So if you are in Osaka and near the aquarium, go and enjoy playing the Taiko drum! Even if you don't have a musical background. The energetic teachers alone makes it 100% worthwhile! 100% would recommend and a must go when you're in Osaka!

I’m part of a drum circle at the New Orleans Veterans Hospital. I can’t wait to share this with them. The experience was exhilarating and exhausting at the same time. I saw Tokyo Night Fusion right after this.

You won't regret it. We all had a great time from parents to two teenagers (boys). The instructors were engaging and funny. We were surprised that we learned the routine in under an hour... got the video to prove it. We paid additional money to watch their performance afterward. Memorable experience!
