West Australian Orff-Schulwerk Association
WAOSA is a professional organisation of music and movement educators dedicated to the creative teaching approach developed by Carl Orff and Gunild Keetman in the 1950’s. We provide professional development workshops for educators who believe that learning about music should be an active and joyful experience available to all children. Through Orff-Schulwerk, our children use their voices to speak and sing, and their bodies to move and dance as they joyously progress from musical imitation to improvisation and literacy. All of these concepts encourage the development of the whole child.
WAOSA members receive continual development of best teacher practices and a community of support within elemental music education. Participation in our workshops will inspire creative musical growth and develop professional friendships and networking opportunities.
