During the month of January I had a great opportunity to be part of NMF Seminar at Trondheim (HELL) It was a three day seminar where I had to do presentation about Pulse to NMF Board and employees. The main aim was to share how we work with linguistic Minorities and Inclusion in NMF Øst. I  talked about Field band teaching methods and present some results of the work that Team Pulse in Norway are doing in the school bands. I also got a chance to attend different master classes on how to make your band sound good and how to be a good leader for your band which was helpful for me in order to develop my teaching skills and conducting.

Team Pulse also had the opportunity to be part of Samspill in February because last year PULSE did a great work with 120 musicians from different schools.

This year, like last year, PULSE created team building activities, dance groups and a choir that was singing in Zulu and Xhosa which is two of the South African Languages.

Alone we can do so little, Together we can do so much and Coming together is the beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success and Pulse is stronger together.
