Frequently asked questions

Read our frequently asked questions. Get in touch if you can't find your question!

    • How long does it take to master circular breathing?

      That is different, but with regular practice you can learn circular breathing within a few days.

    • How do you choose a good didgeridoo?

      Things like resonance, tone, ease of playing, shape, size and quality are all important. It is important to start on a didgeridoo that is easy to play. This will speed up your learning process and also motivate you to keep going. We recommend starting with a relatively cheap bamboo didgeridoo.

    • I have hyperventilation, can I play didgeridoo?

      For people who have hyperventilation, are short of breath, have lung problems, suffer from lung covid, circular breathing and playing the didgeridoo can actually help.

    • Besides the online lessons, do you have a didgeridoo shop or didge shop?

      We sell a wide range of didgeridoos in our Australian Treasures webshop. We do not have a physical shop. Therefore, we have added videos to our didgeridoos we offer online so you can hear and see the didgeridoo you want to buy. Of course, we are always available if you have any questions about buying from our didgeridoo shop. Please send an email to info@australiantreasures.com or whatsapp to 0229757766.

    • Can and should women play the didgeridoo?

      According to Aboriginal tradition, women were not allowed to play didgeridoo. It would make them sterile. Now the didgeridoo was a real men's instrument according to their own tradition. Of course women are allowed to play didgeridoo just like women are allowed to play other musical instruments!

    • How is the didgeridoo played?

      On the didgeridoo you blow on a mouthpiece with an opening of about 3 cm diameter. Putting your mouth against the mouthpiece and vibrating your lips produces the didgeridoo's basic tone.

    • What does the online didgeridoo course cost?

      The online course costs 34.50 pounds

    • What does circular breathing mean?

      Circular breathing is a breathing technique that allows you to breathe out CONTINUOUSLY while breathing in through your nose. With the didgeridoo, this continuous exhalation can be made audible. There is a constant exhalation making an infinite tone. With proper mastery, a long uninterrupted tone can easily be played for 15 minutes!

    • How do you make your own didgeridoo?

      You can easily make a didgeridoo yourself from a PVC tube. Sometimes you don't have to do anything about it and a PVC pipe that you can buy at a hardware store is enough. The ideal length for a homemade didgeridoo is about 130cm. This length gives you a low didgeridoo tone. You can even give the tube a nice shape by heating the PVC tube and bending it to give the didgeridoo a nice branch shape. If necessary, make a beeswax mouthpiece on the didgeridoo and paint the didgeridoo with acrylic paint for a nice end result.
