The origin of the TaKeTiNa Rhythm Pedagogy

The TaKeTiNa Rhythm Pedagogy originated from the search for a process that would enable anyone to experience and learn rhythm in an authentic and effective way. From the very beginning TaKeTiNa showed its creative potential as well as its healing effects. Participants reported an improvement with problems such as heart arrhythmia. Some experienced a sudden resolution of their tinnitus. What started as a surprise is now being researched and verified by projects with the Society for Chronobiological Research in Vienna. From its essence TaKeTiNa has evolved as a bridge between music, medicine, therapy, and education.

In 1970 first TaKeTiNa workshops took place in India and Europe. Many well-known muscians and music therapists were amongst the first participants.
