About the Host
A 15-year expert in mindful drumming with over 30 years of experience as a solo artist, musician, composer, teacher, and mentor. I support team cohesion, stress reduction, mindfulness, creativity, and employee well-being through my pioneering methods, Mindful Drumming and Mindful Rhythm Work. Holding a Master’s degree in Music Therapy from the Norwegian Academy of Music, I deliver corporate experiences that go far beyond traditional team-building.
My approach creates inclusive spaces where rhythm becomes a powerful tool for self-awareness, embodied presence, and deeper connection with others. Currently a university lecturer at the Norwegian Academy of Music, I have facilitated workshops across Europe, bringing both academic rigor and intuitive practice into corporate settings. My methodologies help organizations foster authentic collaboration, reduce workplace stress, and unlock collective potential through the universal language of rhythm.

All that’s needed is a simple chair. For larger groups, it’s helpful to have an audio setup with monitors and a mic stand. I can provide a microphone and cables. For my Mindful Rhythm Work workshops, access to music playback (e.g., Spotify) is also required.
