EXADON is a made-up word meaning Exercise + Sado + Don (the sound of taiko). Playing the taiko is a physical activity that combines aerobic exercise and intellectual engagement. Let us all enjoy the taiko, young and old, men and women alike. In this health and fitness program, we will laugh and play, refreshing our hearts, bodies and minds with joy!
