"This is great stuff - very powerful exercises, and what I really like is that this is something that a beginner can try without getting overwhelmed, while at the same time really kick your ass if you are an advanced player!"
- Doron Orenstein, Former Member of Tommy Dorsey Orchestra
Love playing the saxophone but don’t know what to focus on to boost your sound, develop your control and just generally motor forwards?
The 5 "Super Foods" in this routine are what has made a massive difference to my saxophone playing.
These core techniques are what I practise regularly to keep in shape and to continue my journey towards an amazing saxophone sound!
I’m Matthew Smith, a professional saxophonist with twenty plus years teaching experience, and I’m about to show you how you can make great strides towards creating an incredible sound.
And the best bit? As with all saxophone practice, you can spend hours on this... but it can also condense down into a 10 minute practise routine.
And by focusing on the core techniques that will move your saxophone playing forward, you’ll build a habit for picking your instrument up every day, and continually develop as a player, even if you don't have much time.
"I have been learning a lot from you. For this reason, everyone has been complimenting me on how my playing the sax has improved."

What is the Saxophone SUPER FOOD Practice Routine?
The Saxophone SUPER FOOD Practice Routine is an instant access online course for saxophonists of all levels, who are looking for a tried-and-tested practice routine that yields massive results.
The course is broken down into a series of short yet highly effective mini-lessons, focussing on five essential areas - or Super Foods:
- The Mouthpiece
- Tuning
- Harmonics/Overtones
- Scales
- Improvisation
Each mini-lesson contains a practical exercise and step-by-step coaching tips for practising it, as well as a video demonstration so you’ll know exactly what you’re aiming for.
When you have worked through the course, you can then use the techniques learnt to make up your regular routine that contains each of the Super Foods.
Through regular and consistent practice –– even for just ten minutes a day –– you’ll quickly start to see improvements in your airflow, breath control, embouchure, tuning, fluency, manual dexterity, timing, groove, and of course, your creativity.
"A lesson with Matthew goes beyond tuition and learning, it is an inspiration. I already feel transformed by his brilliant approach."
- Ed Norman (UK)
