What do I get when I join Danny's Sax Squad?

Personalized saxophone instruction

Music theory, composition and arranging, producing, playing with an ensemble, getting gigs, and even music promotion and business, nothing is off-topic. Danny will teach you what you want to know.

How does the Sax Squad work?

Join

To get started, join the Squad, go to your account page, upload a photo or create your avatar, and add a short bio about yourself.

Post an intro

Post an intro clip of your playing in the Squad feed, and introduce yourself to the Sax Squad community.

Become awesome

Danny will listen to your intro clip and reply with instruction and guidance specifically tailored to your individual musical journey. Replies could be video or audio, PDFs with exercises and tunes, or other media, in an easy-to-use, powerfully effective two-way, asynchronous social learning environment, the most effective online learning experience in existence.

Danny will ask you to post clips of yourself playing specific tunes, patterns. exercises, or techniques, and as he hears your playing develop and improve, he'll continue to guide you on your journey to saxophone awesomeness.

No one learns alone

And you also benefit from Danny's instruction to all other Squad members. Study after study has shown that people learn far better in a social context where you can engage with other students with the same goals as you.

Danny Janklow's Saxophone Squad is a global community of sax players on the same musical journey as you, with whom you can engage every day, 24/7 in a joyous, encouraging and thriving global saxophonist community!

Become the saxophonist you were destined to be.

One size does not fit all

Every musician is unique. Unlike online "one-size-fits-all" courses, you get personalized and individual instruction, guidance and advice from Danny that is driven by your individual proficiency level, style, musical goals and questions.

Danny will teach you exactly what you need to learn.

Forget Zoom

Videoconferencing is a poor way to learn online. It's not an ongoing, evolving conversation that lasts all month, it's an isolated experience that lasts 30 or 60 minutes.

You don't benefit from the teacher's instruction to other students. And scheduling and cancellations are a hassle for everyone.

How do I post?

Posting is similar to posting on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter, but easier, more powerful, and optimal for learning.

For video and audio clips, you can prerecord with your smartphone or laptop, then upload, or, use the InstaRecord features to capture video or audio in just a few clicks.

Membership is limited

Danny has a busy touring, producing and recording schedule, and can only give quality personalized and individual attention to a small number of students, so if this looks like something you want to do, sign up now, since membership will be closed soon.

Take a big step towards becoming the saxophonist you've always wanted to be and join Danny's Squad!
