Peaceful Forest is a Taiko drumming group led by Takumi Kato and his three sons—Sogen (13), Ryoma (12), and Yamato (8). Together, they share the powerful rhythms of traditional Japanese drumming while promoting peace and cultural connection.
Takumi’s mission was shaped by his experience in the United States during 9•11, which deeply impacted him and inspired his commitment to peace. Through Taiko drumming, he seeks to connect people, honor memories, and give back to the communities that supported him.
