The art of rhythm meditation: Zen buddhist goes global with TaKeTiNa rhythm process

A musical meditation called TaKeTiNa (http://www.taketina.com), produces stress-reducing effects that gets diverse groups of people synchronized in rhythm.

The TaKeTiNa process is based on scientific principles found in chaos theory, neurological research, and psychology. As the group explores a specific polyrhythm, they work toward a common goal. They experience phases of chaos and order, to arrive at a state of natural organization.

“Almost effortlessly, people with no musical experience can quickly fall into rhythm and song,” says Zen Buddhist and TaKeTiNa teacher James Word.
