Scientific research has shown that didgeridoo playing strengthens the throat muscles and can therefore significantly reduce snoring and lower the number of apnoea breathing stops. Of course, it is important to keep doing the exercises but, as mentioned earlier, you can do the circular breathing exercises anywhere.

A course against snoring or apnea (OSAS) is usually (partially) reimbursed. In any case, you will always receive an invoice with a description of your purchase. In any case, check with your health insurer!

An Australian Aboriginal wind instrument in the form of a long wooden tube, traditionally made from a hollow branch, which is blown to produce a deep, resonant sound, varied by rhythmic accents of timbre and volume.

The total length of the online course is over 40 minutes and covers as many as 24 lessons in it. 13 lessons relate to playing the didgeridoo and 11 lessons on circular breathing.

Circular breathing is a breathing technique that allows you to continuously exhale while inhaling through your nose. With the didgeridoo this continuous exhalation can be made audible. There is a constant exhalation through which an infinite tone sounds. With good control, a long continuous tone of 15 minutes can be played with ease!

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.

Australian Treasures organises one-day didgeridoo & circular breathing workshops throughout the year. With a small group of students, you will learn the basics of didgeridoo playing as well as circular breathing in one day. These lessons will be given in the beautiful little church in Beets (NH). You can register for this course via this website. Or via www.didgeridoocentrum.nl

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!
