About Us: Kyodo Taiko is the nation's first and oldest collegiate taiko drumming team. Founded in 1990, members have throughout the years wowed audiences with Kyodo's flashy style and performance-oriented approach to traditional Japanese taiko. We perform as a team at many events around the UCLA campus and greater Southern California area. We also perform at UCLA NSU's annual Culture Nights and host annual Spring Concerts on the UCLA campus. Kyodo has two meanings, one is "family", and the other is "loud children". Come see us perform, and you will understand why.
