The social business community 'Waccel' (Location: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; Organizer: Yoshihiro Shimamura; General Producer: Tomohiro Sumitani) will host 'Drumming Exercise' on Tuesday, April 14, 2026, featuring drummer and percussionist Tatsuro Ito as the instructor.
In recent years, with a growing interest in self-growth and wellness, more people are incorporating exercise, mindfulness, and meditation into their lives.
Amidst this trend, 'Drumming Exercise,' an exercise utilizing drums, is being newly proposed.
This program differs from conventional 'lessons for improving musical instrument skills' and was developed as a new form of experiential exercise that anyone can enjoy at their own pace, regardless of their musical experience.
■ Background of Development
General drum lessons aim to improve technique and play musical pieces.
However, as the level increases, the movements become complex, and it is not uncommon for people to give up halfway due to the high difficulty.
'Is there a way to touch the drums in a simpler way that anyone can enjoy?'
'Can we place value on the "experience itself" rather than whether one can or cannot play?'
'Drumming Exercise' was born from these thoughts.
■ What is Drumming Exercise?
Drumming Exercise is a workout that combines rhythm and body movement while using a drum.
No special skills or knowledge are required.
It starts with simple movements that anyone can do, beginning with taking the beat by clapping hands and tapping feet simultaneously, and gradually overlays the original rhythm of the drum while using both hands and feet.
The process is characterized by a style of continuing comfortably while focusing on one's own senses, much like yoga or pilates.
