Great video man thanks so much, i just bought mi first didgeridoo.

Best Didge Tut on the net! Thx man!

Great teaching! thank you!

Very instructive, thank you.

Thank you, really good lesson 🙏

This is awesome, nice one dude!

Best video on this, thank you. I may just be able to learn this

very nicely done . Awesome. Motivated to learn

excellent tutorial video....best explanation to learn circular breathing...

A good way to visualize this would be to think of bagpipe mechanics. Your mouth and cheeks become the bag and the cheek muscles are the force squeezing out the air rather than the arm for bagpipes.

Circular breathin is my only struggle with the didge, I am great on everything else. I cannot figure out what it is that I am doing wrong when it comes to filling my cheeks with air on the ab push! this is super helpful though, I sure that with enough views and practice I will have it down in no time

It would be helpful if you made a vid of the basics of circular breathing wearing a slim shirt that shows very clearly, the motions of your stomach as you breathe. The bulky sweater makes it difficult to get the full picture...Thanks for your fantastic tutorials. getting there...

Fantastic video. Does your mastery program cover methods for people who suffer from a deviated septum and struggle to breathe?

Hey Mike, Thanks so much! While we don't speak to deviated septum specifically, the Didge For Sleep method (www.didgeforsleep.com) covers most techniques needed to strengthen the throat and tongue muscles and keep the airway open at night.

I was wondering if you could help please? When I am playing if I try to change anything about my cheeks (suck them in, blow them out) I lose the seal or my lips stop vibrating completely. Would I benefit from a smaller mouth piece or is it just a case of developing my cheek muscles?

one question, if I have one nostril with around 85-90% of ari flow block (yes I need surgery for fixing that), am I so fucked up that it will be impossible to reach circular breathing????

My cheek sounds do NOT sound like that lol

Hey man! Awesome videos--I'm beginning--but after you do the two step/beat ab-cheek-ab-cheek when do you inhale? Am I supposed to just do all of that on an exhale and then take a break, inhale, and start over?

Hi Matt, AJ here. Yes, at first you do all of the ab-cheek alternations on one long exhalation. Later you will add the inhales at the same time you are squeezing your cheeks. Cheers -AJ

I've got a pretty cheap didgeridoo (My uncle bought about 50 and gave one to me haha), do you have any didge recommendations for an experienced beginner, that aren't too pricey? Thanks!

Hi Taylor, We have some great affordable options at our online didge store at didgeproject.com/store/

I bought a fairly cheap didge on amazon..not much back pressure at all. I have been trying circular breathing for EVER and still can’t keep the drone while taking a breath. Would a didge with more back pressure be better to learn on? If so...do you have a suggestion on a good one without breaking the bank?

@didgeproject

4 жыл бұрын

Yes a didge with more back pressure will make a world of difference. The plastic travel didgeridoo at didgeproject.com/store is a great choice

Can an a person limited to stand up laying in bed play the instrument or the back has to be straight? This would be very good practice meditate creative thing for him but can’t rise or sit

I am really good at filling my mouth with air and squeezing it out with my cheeks and getting the high pitched farting sound you make in the video. However, when I add the didge, I am still making the high pitch farting sound. What the heck? And yes, I am able to play a drone sound while buzzing my lips. Any suggestions?

Great meeting you this weekend Matt. I'm going to answer your question here for the benefit all viewers. Essentially, when playing the didgeridoo, you need to place this exercise in the middle of a longer continuous drone, which is a long air stream both before and after the cheek squeeze. So I like to think of it as 1) long air stream, 2) squeeze cheeks, and 3) continue with the long airstream. Does that help to clarify?

Trying to learn for saxophone, is the technique similar for the breathing?

@didgeproject

Yes its basically the same concept.

Still waiting on my didg to come in so I've been practicing at work. Needles to say people think I'm starting to loose it😅

idk why but when I try squeezing my cheeks without my fingers it only comes out my nose, got any tips

Anybody else out there doing this through a pool noodle at your kids right now?

I have a terrible problem. I learnt how to do circular breathing, but when I'm doing the drone, I cannot stay there maintaining the sound because I don't know how to keep that pression with my mouth and cheeks. Can you help me?

@didgeproject

Hola Jesús, AJ here. For you it would be best to practice the cheek rhythm exercises in this video WITHOUT doing circular breathing. This will help you strengthen your cheek muscles. Do this for 10 minutes a day and within a week or two you should start seeing improvement when you start adding the inhalations. Cheers, AJ

Will this help with large brass instruments?

@didgeproject

PleasentDddd yes its the same exact technique

When inhaling should my abs be pushing inwards or outwards? I've always been told to make sure they go outward because that uses your diaphragm rather than your lungs. Is this true?

@didgeproject

7 жыл бұрын

Hey Anthony, AJ here. When you inhale the belly expands, meaning your abs relax and move outwards. When you exhale you engage the abs and push them in. The diaphragm is the muscle that draws air in. When you are exhaling the diaphragm is relaxed. Cheers, AJ
