Summer Beach Event
This past weekend we all had a great time at Miura Beach!!
After Saturday's practice, we had baths and then slept over at the dojo. In the morning we had a healthy breakfast then set out by train to our destination. The kids had a great time playing in the sand and really enjoyed the waves. Our return was a good time to rest as we all had a lot of sun and upon our return to the dojo we sat and relaxed while eating watermelon!

These are a couple snapshots of our Wa-daiko class on Saturday. Unfortunately we cannot practice on our real drums because the powerful beats disturb our neighbors!

More Mats
Here are some of our students piling onto the new (used) mats we have recieved. We also were
fortunate enough to get another crash pad and mini trampoline as well. With these, we can expand the repertoire of drills we do and they are just plain fun to climb on.
