Jaynie, I think sax can be self-taught, especially if you are already familiar with another woodwind instrument. If not, the only difficulty probably lies in the mouth positioning. The notes you can learn on your own easily with one book. Last time I tried to play, I couldn't hold a note for a very long because of my smokers lungs. You really gotta put a lot of push into hitting notes compared to other woodwinds.
Btw, did you decide which kind of sax you were interested in? Personally I like the alto sound.
