A New Home for Fushu Daiko, SoFla's Original Taiko Group.

FL - Fushu Daiko, South Florida's original Japanese taiko drumming group, announces that they are moving to a new location in Davie, FL. Training and teaching will resume at the new location on February 1, 2011.

Coral Springs, FL (prHWY.com) February 7, 2011 - After many years in Dania Beach, FL, the group has found a new home for "Yoshiko's Dojo" - named after the group's founder, Yoshiko Cane. The new dojo is roomier and still very convenient for the Fushu Daiko community, as it is located on I-595 and University Drive, near the Florida Turnpike, SR84, and I-95. The group is pleased to have formed a relationship with its new landlord, The Davie Commerce Center.

The new dojo comes on the heels of Fushu Daiko's reorganization as a non-profit under the name Japan Arts Inc.

"As the 'Year of the Rabbit' begins, we are excited about leaping ahead, making a fresh start in our new dojo and creating more energy around our organization. The new space will allow us to expand the art forms that we can include in our training programs, as we strive to create a South Florida haven for the preservation and training of the Japanese performing arts," said Jennifer Hoffman, performing member of Fushu Daiko. Additional art forms may include koto (the beautiful Japanese harp), Japanese calligraphy, and performance art like shishimai (the lion dance).

Our music combines the traditional drums and rhythms of Japan with musical styles from around the world, such as jazz and rhythm and blues, to create an exciting, powerful cross-cultural experience that strives to cross boundaries and connect cultures.
