Can you play didgeridoo with a beard?
A beard makes it a bit more difficult to play - but it's certainly not impossible. You only get a more visible mark around your lips because you have to press harder to get a good seal.
Is the didgeridoo the same as other wind instruments?
The didgeridoo is different from other wind instruments. -You blow through a large opening and have to give resistance with your mouth/lips. -The didgeridoo has 1 tone, it is not a melody (wind) instrument. -On the didgeridoo you use the circular breathing technique. -The didgeridoo produces many more vibrations than other wind instruments
Why is the didgeridoo important to aboriginal culture?
The didgeridoo is an Aboriginal instrument that has traditionally been important in Aboriginal ceremonies. The didgeridoo was mainly part of the Aboriginal culture to tell their stories and to get in touch with the spirit world.

No sound comes out of my didgeridoo, is my didgeridoo broken?
If you can't blow the basic note on your didgeridoo it may indicate a leak, crack or hole in your didgeridoo. However, you can easily repair your didgeridoo with beeswax. If you find a crack or hole near the mouthpiece, it will be difficult to get any sound out of your didgeridoo. A crack or hole at the end or bell of the didgeridoo will have little or no effect on the didgeridoo sound. The solution is to plug the leak which you can do very simply with beeswax. The advantage of beeswax is that it moves with the contraction and expansion of the didgeridoo's wood. Moreover, Australian aborigines also repair their didgeridoos in this traditional way
How long does it take to learn circular breathing
The circular breathing technique can be learnt in a few days. To keep exercising the throat muscles, 10 minutes of exercise a day is enough mastered?

Do you need to be musical or able to read notes to take didgeridool lessons?.
Musical knowledge or note reading is not necessary
Does a beeswax mouthpiece always have to be put on a didgeridoo?
It is not always necessary to put a beeswax mouthpiece on a didgeridoo. Sometimes the wooden mouthpiece on the didgeridoo is already in good shape and does not need to be changed. If the mouthpiece is too big, you can use beeswax to make the wooden mouthpiece smaller by modelling a mouthpiece on it. This is very easy to do yourself and done in 10 minutes. If the mouthpiece has a rough surface, a bit of beeswax on the mouthpiece can also help.
What did others think?
Our workshops have helped many people with
circular breathing and have been able to reduce snoring as a result.

Hi all, how nice that there are so many didge fans! I've been doing it for six months now and it's going really well. I even have a bucket of water with PVC pipe next to my bed so I can practice circular breathing every day... I am still very grateful that I did the Didgeridoo & Circular Breathing workshop with Niels.
Sharon (participant one-day workshop) -
Hi Niels,
In November I went on a course with you in Beets, which was an enjoyable experience and left me with great memories, but more importantly I got rid of my apnoea nicely!In my conversation this morning with the pulmonologist, I mentioned that I took the course with you and that I use CBD oil daily. Whether it is the combination or because of either, I don't know, but I am nicely rid of it. From 30 apnoeas to 1!But I was also surprised by the doctor's attitude, because he was more than interested and asked me if I would email your details and for the address where I get my CBD. Because as he indicated, I regularly experience people who cannot get used to the cpap, so maybe we can help them with this.I think this is a development I'd like to share with you and should more applications come to you from the south, you'll know what it might be due to. Always nice to hear. Right?
Greetings Henk Poos (participant in one-day workshop) -

Participated in one of the workshops. Was a great experience!
Willy Veld (participant in one-day workshop) -
If I play vigorously for an evening, for half an hour or so, I can get on with it for several days. Less trouble with some apnoea symptoms in the nose/throat and a lot more air! I have yet to figure out an optimum. Feeling fitter in the throat helps anyway. Greetings everyone

Good professional information about the products. I bought a travel didge and a didge box. Both are fine. Please note that you have to breathe them in a little before they run smoothly. Circular breathing is therefore very easy to do. I decorated the box with art. Makes it slightly different.

This spiral travel didgeridoo is absolutely magical. It is beautiful, and its weight makes it a strong instrument, while it’s not too heavy for your arms. This is the perfect companion for easy transport and, you can play it without making your arms tired, why not while walking ? The sky is the limit with this beauty. Oh, yes, a genuine long didgeridoo still sounds a little better in my opinion, but I am so excited and astonished that this sound gets so amazingly close from the traditional didge. It has a very good back pressure and the mouth piece is perfect. It plays extremely easily. This is the only version of a didgeridoo, where yourself as a player can hear how it sounds for the listener, because otherwise you’d need to record the sound with a normal didge and listen to it later. Long story short : I fell in love with it. It has become my favourite and it will never stop surprising me.
