The details matter
We’re not your ordinary music school
As a smart, conscious learner who is looking for the best, you’ll want to pay close attention to the details that make our program different from other flute schools.
And we know you’ll appreciate the Sage Music® difference.
A smarter way to learn flute
sage : \ ˈsāj \ wise through reflection and experience
Our flute teachers are highly trained in the best methods for learning and teaching music. You or your child will get the best instruction anywhere. So skip the amatuers, and learn with the pros who can properly guide you toward your goals.
Our Arpeggio® lesson system – backed by learning science – will help you learn flute quickly and easily with direction in a structured and step-by-step way. Plus we’ll teach you what to do, how to learn it, and why you’re doing it.
We know you’ll get the best results because our students see steady progress. So we’d never need to lock you into a contract. Yet students stay with us 3x longer than other schools. Get in touch to see why now.
Believe it or not 63.8% of our students are adults
Whether you want to be a professional musician or have had lifelong dreams of playing music, you’ll find yourself in good company at Sage Music.
Our students range from absolute beginners to intermediate players to advanced professionals looking to improve their skills and practice.
No matter what you want to learn, we’ll get you there.
Don’t want to play kids songs? No worry! We’ll work with you to help you play the music that you want. We personalize our lessons for you.
Sometimes we can jump right in with what you want, but other times it takes a little prep work. But we’ll always get you there.
In fact, most of our flute students are adult beginners. So you’ll find a welcoming environment with a team that knows how to work with folks just like you.
As an advancing flutist, we’ve got the skills to get your flute playing to the next level. We’ve worked with beginners and pros, so we know exactly how to get you from one level to the next.
Our students have included cast members of Saturday Night Live, Broadway performers, and producers coming to work on their keyboard skills. We’ve even helped students prepare for graduate degree auditions.
We go above and beyond other programs by developing more advanced skills, practice habits, and learning techniques. You’ll learn more music, in a shorter amount of time, and with greater skill and security.
Develop your child’s skills in a fun and engaging way
Just like you, we want to see your kid have fun, enjoy music, and grow into a capable, successful adult. And we also know you want a program you can trust because you are busy with so many things.
That’s what we’ve designed our Arpeggio® lesson system to do. Systems such as Suzuki, ABRSM, the Royal Conservatory simply provide a sequence of songs to play. But our system is designed to develop your child’s skills, enabling them to play any music they want. That’s real growth, and real learning.
In addition, our system provides you with detailed notes every week so you can stay in touch with your child’s development. Plus your child will have the opportunity to perform every week in our student sharing hour, in our open mics, or in our regular recitals. This gives you results that you and your child can see.
The flute is a fun instrument to play, but it can be difficult for some young children. To ensure it's easy, we'll help you find the right flute to make good progress - whether that is a closed or open hole flute, a straight or curved head joint. Then we'll get your child going with the basics in fun, effective lessons.
Once your kid has learned the fundamentals, it's time to start putting them to use. That's why we offer student sharing hours, ensembles, and other performing opportunities to help them grow as a flute player.
Some of our young flutists have taken a serious interest in playing flute. We've helped our students win auditions into college music programs, charter and magnet schools, and talented programs across the country. And we aim to cultivate a lifelong love of learning, and to help them achieve their best on the flute.
Here are just a few of the things that make us a different sort of music school. Learn more about what makes us different.

Most of our students come to us after they have tried flute lessons somewhere else. They tried video courses or lessons that weren’t personlized for them – YouTube, TakeLessons or generic flute lesson videos. They took lessons with teachers who were not trained professionals.
And they just didn’t see the results they wanted.
They didn’t get better or ended up frustrated. They paid for videos but still had to teach themselves. They took lessons with someone who showed them what to do, but not how to do it.
And that left them unhappy. Feeling like they wasted time and money. So they looked for a better program.
The good news is that you’ve just found the #1 science backed program, guaranteed to get you results. That’s the Arpeggio® lessons system, designed right here at Sage Music®.
We get a lot of requests for different types of flute lessons. Since we base your lessons on your goals, we are happy to help you no matter the direction you want to go. Below are some of our more popular requests. But if you don't see what you are looking for, we may also offer it so get in touch. Whether you want to play like James Galway, or play world music, we can help.
We believe that private flute lessons with one-on-one instruction provide you with the best chance of success. That's why we invest so much into our teacher training and private lesson program.
Most group classes are not very effective for learning to play the flute. However, they do provide some benefits like community, learning ensemble skills, and more. So we offer additional group classes to our private flute students so they can develop those skills, too.
Many of our students are interested in learning the music of the past masters of the flute like Brahms, Chopin, Liszt, Beethoven and Mozart. This music requires a high level of focus, precision, and skill. Our faculty, with master’s degrees in flute performance, have performed this music all over the world and gained the experience necessary to help you develop the skills you need to making meaningful and masterful performances of this great repertoire. Many of our students learn this music for fun, while others are preparing for Master’s Degree, College, or competitions. Whatever your goals, we are happy to help you flourish as a classical flutist.
The flute is one of the world's earliest instruments. It's found in folk music around the world. There are the nye, the shakuhachi, bamboo flutes, quena, wood flute, glass flutes, and so many more. We offer lessons for many of these types of flute in different locations across the US, so check in and see if we have it in your area.
Sage Music offers flute lessons for students of all ages and abilities in person and online at the following locations.
