The Sax has universal appeal. We teach as many in the 8 - 18 age band as in the 18 - 45s, in total, they represent 80% of our students. The sax is an exciting and glamorous instrument for all ages.

"Before I came to BLOWOUT SAX I had lessons with school. I had ten of these half hour sessions in which I learnt 4 notes and a couple of tunes that I had never heard of. Then someone bought me a taster session with Mark, in this session I learnt every single note and 4 tunes. After this I had to come back for more. You don't need to know anything about music or the Sax as long as you love the sound it makes and are up for a laugh."
Tom Manning.

"Hey the BLOWOUT SAX has been great for me. Within a few lessons I was out there blowing some funky tunes. After 12 months of lessons (just a year!) I am now jamming."

"I can only admire Mark for how much he has achieved and how his Sax school has developed. His constant flow of ideas keeps his lessons fresh and lively, in my nine years with mark the lessons have never dragged - no grades no music scripts to learn just improving on the different scales, blues, jazz, soul, funk - the soul of the saxophone. I like to see it as the Sax speaking for itself. This is mark's method, not a dated one but an inspired one."
Maddy Platt.

"The BLOWOUT approach is unlike I have ever meet and it works. Suddenly I can fly and the sensation is intoxicating! And my family? Well, put it this way, the dog is now prepared to stay in the same room whilst I play!"
Paul Osborne.

"I had more fun in one session at the BLOWOUT SAX school than during many years of learning other instruments the "traditional" way. It is a totally unique method of learning the Sax and definitely a unique teacher"
Anya Lewis.
