Our chapter presents several workshops every school year featuring outstanding teachers in the Orff-Schulwerk approach who are known nationally and internationally. A short list of our outstanding presenters from the past few years include Doug Goodkin, Dr. Artie Almeida and Dr. Kimberly Collins.
One workshop each year feature St. Louis chapter members as presenters. Our chapter is full of talented teachers and musicians. Several of our chapter members have published works, have taught Orff Levels courses, and have presented at local and national workshops, including the National AOSA Conference. As we say, the best music teachers in St. Louis come from St. Louis Orff! But – before we sound too proud, you should also know that our chapter is a group of warm, caring, creative, open-minded people who are always ready to learn more about the greatest job in the world – teaching! We are dedicated to the idea of continually learning from each other.
At a St. Louis chapter workshop there’s a spirit of adventure, fun, and acceptance of everyone’s ideas, no matter if you’ve been teaching for decades or if you’re still in college. If you come to one of our workshops, be prepared to get up and participate, sing, dance, play instruments, learn, and make fast friends. We welcome you anytime!
