Our Mentors
Michael Wilbur
In his lessons, Michael puts an emphasis on the fundamentals of the saxophone: rhythm, articulation, long tones, scales, arpeggios, trills, overtones, altissimo development, volume control, and breathwork. He also focuses on music theory, composition techniques, Ableton Live production, and meditation/mindfulness techniques to help the player "get out of the way" and more into the music.
Grace Kelly
Grace specializes in teaching saxophone techniques, ear training, jazz improvisation, and songwriting. She loves to help players integrate more musicality while playing lyrically and helping connect what they are hearing in their head to what they are playing on the sax.
Leo P
Leo believes in teaching every student differently. He can coach you through any issue you have and work through any genre of music you like. Through this, you can create your own style combining elements of your favorite players and songs.
What Do Our Students Say?
"Everyone at Saxy School is super supportive and shares the love for the sax and the goal of getting better. It’s really cool to see players of all different levels playing different styles of music. It's an amazing community. Additionally, having access to Grace and Leo and the ability to ask questions and get feedback has helped me develop more confidence as a player."
Kristen
Ontario, Canada
"Since working with Saxy School, I’ve been way more confident with my playing. My chops have been better with my low notes, I’ve had more control within my technique and been more conscious of my entire body when playing. Every part of what I've been learning makes a difference, even the slightest lip change, posture, breathing and finger positioning. The time I’ve spent in Saxy School has really upped my playing. My band mates have been expressing my progress to me as well, which has been great!"
John
Rhode Island, USA
"Saxy School came at a perfect time for me. I am completely remote learning for college so it's hard to make friends. Saxy School really is great to interact with people who have the same passion, I've never been this pumped to go to school! 2Saxy rocks 😃"
Sarah
Paris, France
"I’m here because I realize how important it is to develop all the rarely discussed areas of a successful musician. Leo and Grace are masters not only in musicianship, but also in their style, dance, visuals, fashion, and storytelling. Having found all of this in here just makes me a happy saxophonist once again. This is really one of a kind. Super neat, organized and it’s fun to watch you teach."
