Taiko Drummers

We are so lucky to have Stuart Peton visiting UMS!  We have learned some amazing Japanese drumming skills and we have more to learn in the days to come.  Just a reminder that we have a whole school presentation next Tuesday, March 19th at the CHS Gymnasium.  I will meet students there at 6:15 and they will stay with me throughout the performance.  Please have your child wear their UMS tshirt.  See you Tuesday!


Here are some pictures from our school wide meeting and our practice session with Stuart.

Stuart Peton was introducing himself to the students of UMS.

 

 



 

 Everyone was listening so intently to Stuart explain how to sit and breathe.

 

 

 

Students were practicing their "rest position".

 

We finally had a chance to play the drums! They are learning an amazing routine!

 

 



 

Here we are at the end of an exciting lesson!
