Flute Lessons for Kids in New York
Nurture your child’s potential with engaging and fun lessons
Like you, we want your child to have fun as they discover the joy of music and grow into a confident, accomplished individual. We also understand you need a flexible program to work with your busy schedule.
That’s why we created our Arpeggio® lesson system. Unlike traditional methods like Suzuki, ABRSM, or the Royal Conservatory, which primarily follow a fixed sequence of songs, our system is holistically designed to develop your child’s skills. In time, this will enable them to play any music they want, which is genuine musical growth.
Keeping You In The Loop
Our program not only offers a proven method for musical development but also keeps you informed about your child’s progress with detailed weekly lesson notes. Additionally, your child will have regular opportunities to perform through student sharing hours, open mics, and recitals. These experiences provide tangible results for you and your young musician to track.
Beginner Child Flute Lessons
The flute is a rewarding instrument to learn, but it can be challenging for younger children. To ensure a smooth start, we’ll help you select the right instrument. Options include a closed- or open-hole flute, or a straight or curved head joint. From there, we’ll guide your child through the basics with enjoyable lessons that have been tailored to their specific needs.
Intermediate Child Flute Lessons
After mastering the fundamentals, your child can take their skills further by applying what they’ve learned in a public setting. Through group ensembles, student sharing hours, and other performance opportunities, your child will continue to build their confidence and abilities as a flutist.
Advanced Child Flute Lessons
For young musicians who develop a serious interest in the flute, our advanced training is designed to help them achieve their long-term goals. Our students have successfully auditioned for prestigious college music programs, specialized charter and magnet schools, and advanced talent programs nationwide. Our goal is to support your child’s academic and professional success while cultivating a love of music and learning that will last a lifetime.

The Problem With Other Programs
Many of our students come to us after trying other lessons that just didn’t work for them. They’ve tried video courses or apps, like YouTube, Suzuki, and TakeLessons, that lack personalization, or they worked with instructors who weren’t professionally trained.
Because of this, they didn’t achieve the progress they hoped for. They often struggled through lessons in frustration, feeling like they were being forced to teach themselves. Their instructors showed them what to do, but not how to do it effectively. This led to lost time, money, and motivation.
Here’s the good news, though: You've just found the #1 evidence-based program for learning music. Our Arpeggio® lesson system, developed right here at Sage Music®, is guaranteed to help you succeed.
