I’m so grateful I came across your website (via YouTube). Sax School is so professional and engaging – and for the beginner, very well laid out. I also really appreciate your warm and encouraging coaching style, something missing in quite a few other websites!

Louise Ramsay, Scotland

I’m very impressed by the structure of your lessons, and how you have created a worldwide community for us. This is a big advantage for newcomers to saxophone. I have myself spent over 30 years teaching adults and I want to compliment you on your excellent courses!

Hans Nava-Barrefors ,Sweden

I started sax at 73 and your lessons have already helped me play so much better. I got to play in front of an audience of over 100 people and from the applause I think they enjoyed it! Thanks for your help Nigel!

Next Level – the Easy Way

The smooth sound of hitting the perfect note. The effortless cool of
playing a solo. The pure thrill of entertaining friends and family (or
captivated audiences). There’s nothing like mastering the sax…

Have you been dreaming of playing your first note for some time?
Dusting off the horn after a few (more like many!) years? Or been
around the block and ready to become a true entertainer?

Whatever your starting point, you’re in the perfect place to take your sax playing to the next level via the most engaging and interactive way to learn. And do it without shelling out thousands for music academy, costly private lessons or bamboozling YouTube videos.

Play with Confidence

No Matter Your Starting Point

Struggling to get started? Experiencing a bit of performance anxiety? Hit a plateau? We know what it’s like… it can be excruciatingly frustrating. All you want is to play the saxophone like you hear in your favourite songs – or how you imagine in your mind.

From the basics of embouchure, to playing at speed and the pinnacles of altissimo, Sax School teaches you the skills and confidence to be the sax player you want to be.

No heavy textbooks, mind-numbing theory or tedious lesson plans. Just incredibly effective, engaging, ‘play-as-you-watch’ online saxophone lessons that always keep you motivated to learn.

Learn to Improvise

Like the All-Time Greats

Sure, playing sax off sheet music is incredibly satisfying. But improvising and going where the music takes you – that’s the ultimate goal for just about every sax player.

With Sax School, we break down the art of improvisation, teaching you the step-by-step techniques your favourite pros use to improvise at a moment’s notice.

In no time, you can learn to ditch the sheet music and play the saxophone by memory and ear, setting off on an improvised musical journey anytime you pick up the sax.

Play the Songs You Love

Whatever lights you up, Sax School helps you learn to play it with confidence.

Of course the answer isn’t just a collection of play-along songs that leaves you frustrated. At Sax School, you’ll build real style-specific skills that you can apply to ANY song —so you can sound authentic in the music you love.
