Hey everyone! This is just a reminder for those who did not come out to the Meet the Clubs Days and the Matafest earlier this semester. We have a new member orientation coming up this Friday September 13, 2013 from 7:00-9:00 PM in Cypress Hall Room #145 here at CSUN (Cal State Northridge). So, come on out and meet the members! Free food, free drinks, free performance by the performance members, and a small lesson where you have the chance to hit the drums! See you there!

Come on out to the soft opening of Kickin' KAsian, an Asian Cajun seafood restaurant located at 9545 Reseda Blvd Suite #19-20 in Northridge! From 5:00-10:00 PM on Friday September 6, 2013, you can help support CSUN Jishin Taiko by bringing your friends and trying out the hot, new dishes that Kickin' KAsian has to offer! Bring your student ID and mention CSUN Jishin Taiko to receive a 20% discount! See you there!




UPDATE: Thank you so very much for coming out to the Kickin' KAsian Northridge Fundraiser! We hope that you have had a great time! It was a great turnout and we gladly appreciated it!

Practice days have now been changed to Mondays and Wednesdays from 7pm-10pm with an additional optional practice on Fridays from 7pm-10pm in Cypress Hall room 145. Hope to see everyone there!

On October 9th, 2012, Jishin was invited to perform at Chaminade Middle School. We had a wonderful time being able to play for everyone there. Thank you very much for having us!

On Sunday, September 7th, 2012, Jishin was invited to perform at Gedatsu Church's Autumn Moon Festival, and it was certainly a fun and eventful day. Thank you everyone for all of the cheering, and even playing along with us afterwards! Most of all, thank you for having us!

Hey everyone!
Jishin Taiko's New Member Orientation will be coming up soon on September 11th and September 14th from 7:00pm to 10:00pm! Come out and enjoy a fun evening meeting the group and getting a chance to play the drums in a taiko workshop!

Over the summer, we will be holding practices every Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday night from 7 PM to 10 PM in Cypress Hall room 145. If you are interested in joining Jishin Taiko or just want to see what we do, feel free to drop in.

Jishin Taiko has come home to Northridge from Stanford after a fun, exciting weekend at ITC! We were able to bring back new techniques, ideas, and inspiration from the classes, build and strengthen our connections with others in the taiko community, and have a great time watching and performing taiko. Thank you, Stanford Taiko, for having us, and to everyone who attended, we hope to see you again next year!
