Values

Transparency

Appreciating the trust placed in us by the diverse stakeholders of the TCA, we will maintain open, accountable, and accessible governance; and encourage the free and responsible exchange of ideas between TCA’s membership and leadership.

Inclusivity

Believing that everyone has the freedom to play taiko and participate in the taiko dialogue, we will continually seek to broaden the base of participation in the taiko community and reach out to welcome new members into TCA; embrace differing perspectives and voices within the taiko community; nurture connections within and beyond TCA; and provide the means to make participation at every level in TCA accessible to all.

Empowerment

Understanding the transformative power of taiko for both individuals and groups, we will support avenues to develop artistic excellence; foster an inspirational environment; and encourage the creation of shareable knowledge and resources for those interested in taiko.

Heritage & Evolution

Actively honoring the past as we look to the future of taiko, we will celebrate tradition and foster innovation in the art of taiko; respect the wisdom, generosity, and dedication of past and current leaders while developing the next generation; identify and seek new ways to serve the evolving needs of our membership; and recognize the mutually enriching influences of the global taiko community.

Respect

Acknowledging the diversity of philosophies and practices of individuals and groups within the taiko community while maintaining neutrality, we will use democratic processes wherever feasible, and engage in mutually considerate and respectful conduct.
