Ryukyukoku Matsuri Daiko Hawaii originated in Okinawa in 1982, combining traditional Eisa and Karate forms with contemporary influences and music to create a new and unique taiko style. The club has grown tremendously and now includes chapters all around the world. Our own Hawaii chapter now includes branches on Oahu and the Big Island. Ryukyukoku Matsuri Daiko's members are committed to working together to build and maintain cross-cultural friendships. We invite people of all ages and backgrounds to join us in exploring and perpetuating Okinawan culture through the art and spirit of taiko.
RMD Hawaii is honored to perform at public festivals and other events throughout the year. Please come see us perform!
