I realised that these questions could not be answered through instrumental teaching and dedicated practice alone. I wanted to explore how the body works during music-making and how that knowledge could be applied directly to playing and singing. This curiosity ultimately led me to study physiotherapy.

Studying physiotherapy at Lund University gave me a deep understanding of human anatomy, physiology, and the way the brain plans, coordinates and controls movement. But I still wanted to understand how this knowledge could be applied specifically to the complex demands of playing and singing. In many ways, musicians are elite athletes—but in fine motor control. I therefore continued searching for knowledge specifically tailored to musicians.

Everything fell into place when I discovered the Timani method. For the first time, I found a practical framework for applying my knowledge of anatomy and movement science directly to music-making. Rather than treating the body separately from the instrument, Timani focuses on finding solutions while you play or sing—solutions that can be put into practice immediately and are sustainable over time.

Today, I am a licensed physiotherapist and am currently completing the Timani Teacher Certification Program at the Musicians' Health and Movement Institute (MHMI) in Oslo, with certification expected in summer 2027.

What drives me is simple. I want to help musicians discover how their bodies can better support their music-making, allowing them to play and sing with greater freedom and less effort. I believe everyone deserves to be able to make music in a body that feels like an asset, not a limitation.
