Preserving Culture Through Music Education

about pulse

Pulse is an organization formed by 4 college students collaborating on changing the way music is taught and its relevance.

We create platforms that create opportunities for kids and teens to come together and grow as artisans by following their passion to make music.

In this process we seek to cultivate love and empathy for other cultures.

how it works

experts & teachers

students

curriculum

EDTH (Music Therapy and Education) and CLTMS (Cultural Music Studies) are courses taught by experts and teachers selectively chosen by the PULSE team.

Students must portray an interest in learning and are not afraid of taking risks.

Students will be learning among creatives who will be able to advise the students first hand on what it takes to make it and what it takes to learn what they will need to equip them for a career.
