The Suncoast Florida Orff Chapter (SFOC) is an affiliated chapter of the American Orff-Schulwerk Association (AOSA), bringing together music educators who are passionate about the creative teaching philosophy of Carl Orff and Gunild Keetman.

Our chapter is committed to supporting educators by providing high-quality, engaging music and movement experiences for all learners. We believe that singing, playing, listening, moving, improvising, and creating music should be an active, joyful, and accessible experience that inspires every child.

The Suncoast Florida Orff Chapter offers professional development workshops and learning opportunities throughout the year, providing members with meaningful experiences to grow, collaborate, and strengthen their teaching practice.
