The first person that has really helped me see and understand the lip formation! Thank you so much Didge Mama, I've got a lot of practicing to do but at least now I know what to aim for!
So cool you discovered this amazing instrument!!! ❤️🎶☀️ Never too old to learn something new. But my oldest student was 92 yo 😘✅. So you will be amazing in 11 years! Have fun 🤩 with my tutorials. And if you feel stuck at any moment, please let me know, I’m here to help. ❤️🎶☀️
Greetings from South Africa and thank you for your tutorial. I am a crazy 72 year young man who bought a didge last Saturday on an auction and will learn to play. I searched the web and you tube for someone who can explain simply you hit the nail on the head, plus you are saying practice for a week. My lips have never had so much exercise😀 Thanks again for your time and look forward to part 2 regards Quinten

@@Didgitalsky hi dear family member, so cool you are checking your basics, making sure all is perfect. Enjoy my tutorials. And thanks so much for your nice comment. ❤️🙏🎶
I just bought my didgeridoo last week and I’m super excited to learn. I’ve never played an instrument before, but it’s never to late to learn right? When I got it home I was expecting this beautiful sound to come out when I first blew on it and all I got was a pitter putter “puff” haha the air didn’t even make it to the other end 😩 right then I got total respect to all the didgeridoo players out there who make it looks so beautiful and effortless. I decided I was going to master it, I WILL learn! I spent the entire weekend looking up youtube videos with instructions, and there were lots, but yours helped me tremendously, and I’m Excited to follow you. I got my drone, only one note and a only a single breath, I’m only there so far but practice makes perfect right? You play it beautifully Didge mama ❤️ I’m Excited to start this new journey.
Hi dear Susanna, I am so glad you got the drone sound, so nice, right? It is such a nice feeling In your body. I wasn’t a quick learner but enjoyed every step of the way. Enjoy my tutorials and good Luck with it! Any questions about the content, please let me know 👍❤️🎶☀️
@@DidgeMama I was gifted a mid sized dedgeridoo here in India . And have searched the net for videos and urs is the only one which explains it the best 💐💐👍👍thanks
That's what i was trying to explain to my friend. It's not about how well you breathe, it's about how efficiently you can buzz your lips with as LITTLE air as possible. The better you can buzz, the less air you need to play overall.
Hello from England, I'm 76 yrs old, due to health issues I have no teeth, and I can't wear dentures. I bought a didgeridoo but I a having difficulty making the drone sound. I play guitar and other string instruments, but I think this didgeridoo has got me beat.
Yes will be difficult, but not impossible. Think you have to first train your lip Muscles a lot and maybe do play on the side. I would love to look at it together with you, if we can make it possible. Are you up for that, John? ❤️☀️🎶
Hey Didge Mama. Thanks so much for your natural energy. Just started didge a week ago and found you straight away. Really appreciate your videos X go girl
This is marvelous, I started with a 2 evening class from Sky Guasco, who played keyboard and Didge with the band Sol Seed from Oregon when they came to play in Billings, Montana. Got a PVC didge as part of the mini class. As I am a carver I decided to make my own didge from Diamond Willow, my favorite carving wood in spite of the unsuitability of it. The reason it isn't ideal is that the diamond shapes invert towards the center so when split and hollowed you wind up with about 3 dozen three dimensional puzzle pieces that have to be custom made and fitted to seal it up. Took me about a year of part time working to finish it, but as I said I love working with Diamond Willow. That being said, my focus was more on making, but continued to practice as well with my PVC, but missed out on most of the basics of playing. Have especially struggled with circular breathing, I keep thinking I am doing it and people in Didgeridoo Learning Community have been helpful, including sending me a link to your CB tutorial. After seeing it I am now starting with #1 and going to view all of them to give me the basics. Once I work my way through all of them, probably multiple times, I plan to reach out to you for lessons to tie it all together and tweak what I have learned. Thank you very much for putting your experience and excellent teaching out there for us!
thank you for sharing your expertise, it is truly helpful. I am beginning and have the lip buzz ok....but can not seem to transition to the breathing part, so I look forward to seeing how you can help us in that respect. I want to be a good daughter!!!
My absolute please!!! And it was fun doing the class with you. How is Circulair Breathing going and hitting your perfect note, straight away? Have fun and see you soon for your next lesson ✅❤️🎶
Your awesome mama ! I’ve been following a few other teachers. But your instructions are simplified clear and very understandable, I started from the side of my lips as I had more success in drone cb bird calls. But’ I couldn’t make the voice the toot’s. I’ve been following you the past few weeks I’m so grateful in your instruction. I have now beeswax my dodge to 28mm. I’m starting again from the front. Tho my drone is not yet apparent. I tried some voicing ✅ CB✅ I believe once I get the drone happening again, like you say at the end of your videos you will be a good didge player. I do this for the soul the harmonica use to bring this to me. But I really feel the inner soul buzzing inside when I’m droning. Love and light to you Mama D mean AZ buzz Chur Te
Thank you my friend!!! And a tiny bit on the side is okay, just make sure the lip edges are not covered by the mouthpiece. And I understand that the drone on the side is nicer now, but if you can do it well on the front, it will benefit so much the coming techniques. Good luck and if you keep struggling, let me know, I will give you some more pointers. Have fun and good luck!!!❤️☀️🎶
I’m finding that my mouth is open more to make a drone when I cheek in On air is coming out. So I’m practicing your lip drills will this increase the strength of my lips. Any way I’m trying this, I do go to the side (nownthen)to see if it’s the size of the new mouth piece. As it feels a bit different. But thanks again Mama D
Beautiful dutch lady, i am from Delft imported to Australia in 1947. It's so nice to hear from the same nationality as myself, fairdinkum Aussie. Now i am learning the didge, too getting better at it slowly thank you cheerscHarm❤
I’ve been playing the Didge for about 25 years. Absolutely love playing. The only problem I have, I can’t do the circular breathing. It’s so hard for me to do. Wish I knew how. You’re amazing!
Hi dear MrClemmo, did you ever have private lessons for Circular Breathing? Because I believe I can teach you how to do it. So if you want, I’m here to help. ❤️🎶☀️
My pleasure 😇! Really keeping the middle part outwards, sometimes you need to blow more up, and really keep the lips together! Good luck and if this doesn’t help you can always send me a video of you trying to my @gmail.com ❤️☀️🎶Didge mama
Hello Lies, I just started before, on the side of the mouth. Was just getting a better drone and managed the circular breathing. After this I found your clear lesson 1, so now I'm trying to get the same sound from the middle. The same hole seems bigger now, also the didge is very close to my nose now, but more difficult to get the right sound and do the cb. Is it a matter of practice you think, or I do something wrong? I'm tended to go back to the side but I like to follow your nice and clear tutorials. And I'd prefer the middle position. Thanks for putting the videos up and for your help❤
Hi dear Marise, Thank you so much for your clear and important question. 👍 Two things, yes the mouthpiece might be too big for front playing. It should be around 2.8 - 3 cm. And the mouthpiece could be a bit bulky, so your nose is in the way. So if it is too big, I made a video on making a beeswax mouthpiece, that can be helpful. And if it is too bulky, maybe you can build it up a bit, so it is easy to play. You can always make a little video and send it to my 📧didgemama@gmail.com so I can have a look at it and give you some advice. ✅ Also we can look at it together in a free 15min online lesson. 🎶❤️☀️
@@DidgeMama thanks loads, will check that video first and see what I can do and thanks for the opportunity to have a look together. Highly appreciated! Might contact you in the near future. Either way. Grateful for your existence and sharing🤗😘
Wow! That is the best explanation. The only one who actually teaches about the lips needing to move and doing a side view. Wow. I will practice this. Actually, amazing. Yes. My tone is very, very deep/low. I will practice now this lip exercise. Amazing. I am excited to get the right tone.. FINALLY! I'll message next week when I've completed this. Thank you Didge mama
@@DidgeMama haha. Thanks didge mama. Still working on it for now. When I get it, I'd love to have a lesson, possibly leading on to regular lessons. If it suits you, of course. Thanks again
Hello amazing videos ❤ I want to be a great player i can get sound but feels like I'm doing somting wrong struggling dont understand how Bigg the hole should be and feel like. Can you help me. Thank you
Hi Adito, Thank you 🙏! I made a video about the mouthpiece, size etc. Hope it can help with your questions. Also some didgeridoos are not so great instruments. Good luck with catching the basics first and then slowly move to the next video. Any more questions? I’m here and happy to help. ❤️🎶☀️
@@DidgeMama thank you I think the mouth pice is good when I watched you video. Do you have time some time for video chat so you can se what the problem is 😊
Thanks a lot for the great tutorial! I got a question: I think I got the drone (there is a deep and a higher sound when I am playing and with the tongue and the cheeks I can change it). But the high sound is way more quiet. How can I let it sound louder and more clearly? :) Thanks alot and greetings :)
Thanks for your question!Interesting because normally the higher sound is more loud. Maybe can you send me a soundfile or video? So I can reply in a good manner. To didgemama@gmail.com. Thanks. Love and light
@@DidgeMamaHey Mama! An update, there is quite a lot of progress. Well, the lips don't lie😉😂 I'm working with the cheeks a bit, as the lips and tongue work and coordinate and bring out good music. Circular Breathing is also a challenge... Will keep you posted! Thanks again for these lessons! Sending love and peace from Ukraine! Stay healthy and strong. Later Gater!
@@varoonitagi hi my beautiful friend, thank you for the update. Keep enjoying the videos and play around with the exercises. You stay healthy and strong. ❤️🎶☀️
Hello DidgeMama...I was introduced to the sacred instrument many many years ago the sound grabs my soul I just ordered one a beginner one to try..i was searching and searching.. and found you're RUclips so I will be practicing thank you
I got a Didgeridoo i got it from Australia and it originally one and it very hard work my fish in the tank may play with there lips i am Laird Roger from uk
heyy, really liked this video. I kept noticing people playing from the side of their mouth and so I tried to imitate that. I got the sounds but I was unable to unlock certain other things but yeah playing from the middle makes so much sense. I can see some progress. Thanks!
I have a didgeridoo it looks kinda ornamental I do get a sound from it but the opening has a nasty coating on it like to buy pne...how doI choose a didgeridoo that's right for me..I don t read music so bit lost thank you ?
Hi dear Sian, My tutorial #23 is about choosing an instrument. I have only top end Didgeridoo’s for sale. Two from duende didgeridoo, made by amazing maker @dubravko Lapaine. And one by also fantastic maker LB didgeridoo @bertrand labourdette. Have fun finding your new best friend 😉✅. Love and light
I habe a question. I got a digeridoo from Bambus. I am a beginner. I can do play the digeridoo BUT I cannot do the right breath. I need a lot of air to do sounds on my digeridoo. Can it be, that the Bambus Digeridoo isn't the best to practice playing a digeridoo? Or is it only my fault?
Just beginning, and I find getting the higher sound difficult, it just goes to nothing. Will keep trying, I would really like to be able to play something on the didgeridoo!
Hi dear Christopher, Make sure you don’t overblown but think to put a little idea of going to the toilet for a number two, if you understand what I mean. Good luck and have fun! ❤️☀️🎶
Lip flapping=Raspberry or motorboat! LOL. You were absolutely right about not playing from the side of your mouth. I couldn't get the pulsing drone sound playing from the side of my mouth. Tonight I said: "I'm going to take Didge Momma's advice and play fron the front of my mouth." I got the perfect droning pulse on a $3 piece of PVC pipe and all I could do was laugh for about 5 minutes when I realized I was doing it wrong the whole time! Love ya Didge Mama!
Thank you. Wish I had found you years ago. I have been playing on side of my mouth, badly haha. So now I am trying to correct this. Thank you for your help
I've been playing a little for about 18 months, watching lots of different teachers, and found that useful, so I'll follow you. My biggest frustration is can't seem to hit any high notes and I'm not sure how to improve this component. I still have a gap in my circular breathing unless I quicken it up with a bounce breath. Maybe you might cover these points in future tutorials. Thanks. Peter, Australia.
@@DidgeMama High voice, would like to improve animal sounds like dingo kookaburra dog bark, any notes that add more sound variety. Much of my playing has a sameness about it. Thanks.
@@petermarshall7882 in the tutorial about the voice, I explain that the high voice you focus it from the stomach. So stomach goes in and throat is open. Good luck 👍
Might be a daft question, but do you put your lips right up to the didgeridoo, or do you leave a gap from the mouthpiece? Can’t quite get the right sound yet!
Is actually a good question Christopher!!! I push the mouthpiece really quite strongly to my mouth, I really make sure I have a perfect seal. No air should escape. I hope you can find the right tone soon. It might also be the didgeridoo, if it has a leak or something it is really hard to get the drone. Good luck and ❤️☀️🎶
Hi question.. I've been using my tounge to vibrate my top lip, I was wondering if you're supposed to use your tounge to increase or decrease speed, or just lips
Heel fijn uitgelegd. Heb vorige week een didgeridoo gekocht en krijg er al een goed geluid uit, hoewel het nog niet helemaal consistent is. Als ik het juiste geluid maak voel ik ook m'n hele gezicht trillen 😂 Heel leuk om mee bezig te zijn
Hi Richard, Welkom bij de didgeridoo familie, super leuk dat je ook begonnen ben. Veel plezier met het volgen van m’n video’s. Als je ergens vast komt te zitten, laat het me weten, dan kan ik je vast verder helpen. ❤️☀️🎶
Hi there! My girlfriend and I love your videos, but she tells me that my lip buzzing doesn't look like yours. I suspect my top lip is the issue, perhaps it is too tight? I can sort of get a drone going on my didgeridoo but it takes too much air, more air than I think you or most didgeridoo players use. It seems inefficient to use so much air. I want to make sure I have the fundamentals down and can do a solid drone before advancing to anything else. I was wondering if you'd be willing to help me? Thanks again for providing these tutorial videos!
Hi there, thank you. I’m so glad you enjoy my videos. I would love to help. Maybe we can do a Zoom lesson? So I can see what is the issue and see if I can direct you in a good way. Let me know if you would like that. Sending love and light
@@DidgeMama Hmm, I sent a reply yesterday and I guess RUclips removed it because I disclosed my email address. A zoom lesson sounds wonderful. What would be the best way to contact you?
I am a beginner player. I have an inexpensive synthetic didge: Toca DIDG-CTS Curved Didgeridoo Brand: Toca. I want to get a good, easy to play wooden one. I would like one with a higher drone. Do you have any suggestions what I could purchase and where to purchase one. Thanks.
Love it thank you for explaining... Crazy question! I have never played any musical instrument and had bought a tourist didgeridoo from a shop here in Cornwall... is it meant to have a mouth piece inside the hole ? Or do you try and play it with your mouth 👄 on the bamboo part ?
Angela Rogers I’m glad you find it useful! About the mouth piece, how big is the hole??? If it is about 1.8inches and not hurting when you play, it is fine just like that. If not, can you wait till Monday? I will do an extra video about mouth pieces!!! ❤️🎶☀️
Didge Mama I’ll go and measure it now ! It seems huge but as I’ve said I’ve never played anything before so it’s all very new ... but I’ve dreamt so many time of playing it
Thank you for your comment, and how wide is your mouthpiece? Because it might be on the small side. I hope if you can provide me with more info, I will be able to help you! Love & light
Hiii., plz help Guys, i just can not buzz INSIDE the didge with the seal touching the lips. It obstructs me from produsing any buzz whatsoever. The seals ring just traps my muscles dead, i let the didge rest on chin. I tried putting didge on the floor and not to rest on chin to remove the pressure. Doesnt matter, as soon as the didge seal encloses my mouth - its dead. I can buzz without the didge, reproducing what is shown in the video. I have Meinl Trombone Didge, complete beginner. What am i missing?
Hi D, You probably need to make the mouthpiece bigger. Or really learn to make a perfect duck face. I will be happy to help if you are up for a Zoom class? Love and light
Hi didgemama. I responded two different times to your last reply about my mouthpiece sizes. I believe my reply's didn't go thru since I don't see them. A Zoom meeting would be great!
@@chrisrawls3766 yes definitely let see when it will work and out for the both of us. And yes didn’t see anything. You can email me didgemama@gmail.com
@@chrisrawls3766 hi dear Chris, Yes I think if you want to write an email address, It doesn’t work. So you can write me to my gmail com DidgeMama ofcourse Let”s set up a time and date. ❤️🎶☀️
I've started on 110 cm Didgeridoo and bought 185 cm....On the small one I have no problem at all ,but the big one....I'm just stuck. Cannot play simple note. I'm trying and I can only keep the deep sound for 1-2 seconds. Deep water I got in.
Yes absolutely, this year after June will get more tutorial content. And I respond and help with all the questions asked here. Sending love and light 🤩❤️🎶☀️
I've been playing Didge for around 6 months. I can get a drone going and a few rhythms with circular breathing, but I'm always worried my drone is off. I came across this video and I have never been able to vibrate my lips outside of the didgeridoo
Damn! I started playing from the corner. I can get a droan at least.. i just cant seem to get a good vibration from the front. No matter what i do😢.. Hope you see this message Mama 🙏🏻 blessings
@@karlhallett1372 yes in the beginning your lip corners are strong enough maybe. See if you can slowly move to the front. Also your mouthpiece might be too big. Good luck ❤️☀️🎶
@DidgeMama I bought one a few years ago and couldn't make any sound close to what it should be , so I gave it away . After watching this video , I'm thinking about trying again. This was absolutely the most simple and informative video I've seen on the subject. Every other tutorial seemed to make it way more complicated than it needed to be . Thank you .

Hi LG,
Happy to hear this is content you find useful. Hope you will enjoy the rest of the tutorials. Love and light
I love the sarcastic smile technique
Hi thanks Adam, yes it works well, right?
Have fun 🤩
❤️🎶☀️
Just saw your video on tongue awarness. Bought a didgeridoo yesterday. U are a great teacher. Thank for all the videos. I will follow them through. 🌻
Super Neil! Keep enjoying. And thnx for your compliment. ❤️🎶☀️
Hi dear Neil, super! Keep enjoying my tutorials!! And thanks for your compliment. ❤️🎶☀️
Thank you ever so much❤❤❤ This series is such a gift to the world
Thank you so much! So glad to hear. ❤️🎶☀️. And my absolute pleasure 🤩
I’ve been playing the Didge for about 25 years. Absolutely love playing. The only problem I have, I can’t do the circular breathing. It’s so hard for me to do. Wish I knew how. You’re amazing!
Hi dear MrClemmo, did you ever have private lessons for Circular Breathing? Because I believe I can teach you how to do it. So if you want, I’m here to help.
❤️🎶☀️
And thank you 🙏🤩❤️
@@DidgeMama No never had lessons
@@MrClemmo13 so if you would like, write me an email to didgemama@gmail.com. ❤️☀️🎶
You make this so much fun.
Hahaha that is the idea! 🤩🙏❤️👍✅
Super cool, so helpful and fun to play now as I am starting to make correct sounds at least finally. Excited to learn more. I subscribed so thanks.
Ah super, so happy to hear! And thank you for subscribing. Keep enjoying ❤️☀️🎶
Thank you so much for this video!! I am having trouble keeping the buzz going. It’s putters out really quickly. Any tips for that? Thanks!!!
My pleasure 😇! Really keeping the middle part outwards, sometimes you need to blow more up, and really keep the lips together! Good luck and if this doesn’t help you can always send me a video of you trying to my @gmail.com
❤️☀️🎶Didge mama
thank you for teaching :)
My absolute pleasure! And I hope you enjoy the rest of the tutorials as well. ❤️☀️🎶
I already am, thank you !! @@DidgeMama
@@wayoftheyidaki great to hear!!!❤️☀️🎶
Thank you I can't wait to learn from you
Yeah!!! Go for it. It’s so much fun 🤩
Hello Lies, I just started before, on the side of the mouth. Was just getting a better drone and managed the circular breathing. After this I found your clear lesson 1, so now I'm trying to get the same sound from the middle. The same hole seems bigger now, also the didge is very close to my nose now, but more difficult to get the right sound and do the cb. Is it a matter of practice you think, or I do something wrong? I'm tended to go back to the side but I like to follow your nice and clear tutorials. And I'd prefer the middle position. Thanks for putting the videos up and for your help❤
Hi dear Marise,
Thank you so much for your clear and important question.
👍
Two things, yes the mouthpiece might be too big for front playing. It should be around 2.8 - 3 cm. And the mouthpiece could be a bit bulky, so your nose is in the way.
So if it is too big, I made a video on making a beeswax mouthpiece, that can be helpful. And if it is too bulky, maybe you can build it up a bit, so it is easy to play.
You can always make a little video and send it to my 📧didgemama@gmail.com so I can have a look at it and give you some advice. ✅
Also we can look at it together in a free 15min online lesson. 🎶❤️☀️
@@DidgeMama thanks loads, will check that video first and see what I can do and thanks for the opportunity to have a look together. Highly appreciated! Might contact you in the near future. Either way. Grateful for your existence and sharing🤗😘
@@mariselucardie my pleasure! Here to help ❤️🎶☀️
Wow! That is the best explanation. The only one who actually teaches about the lips needing to move and doing a side view. Wow. I will practice this. Actually, amazing. Yes. My tone is very, very deep/low. I will practice now this lip exercise. Amazing. I am excited to get the right tone.. FINALLY! I'll message next week when I've completed this. Thank you Didge mama
Yeah!!! It is sooo important to have a perfect tone, otherwise all is very difficult to master, first things first 😉! ❤️☀️🎶
@@DidgeMama haha. Thanks didge mama. Still working on it for now. When I get it, I'd love to have a lesson, possibly leading on to regular lessons. If it suits you, of course. Thanks again
@@kickasscorm would be wonderful to help
You to become a great player! Any time ❤️☀️🎶
@@DidgeMama excellent. I'll email you. Thank you didge mama
@@kickasscorm 👍
Hello amazing videos ❤
I want to be a great player i can get sound but feels like I'm doing somting wrong struggling dont understand how Bigg the hole should be and feel like. Can you help me. Thank you
Hi Adito,
Thank you 🙏! I made a video about the mouthpiece, size etc. Hope it can help with your questions. Also some didgeridoos are not so great instruments.
Good luck with catching the basics first and then slowly move to the next video.
Any more questions? I’m here and happy to help. ❤️🎶☀️
@@DidgeMama thank you I think the mouth pice is good when I watched you video. Do you have time some time for video chat so you can se what the problem is 😊
@@DidgeMama or if I can sent pictures on my didge I have 2 think there eucalyptus wood both of them
@@creamdeluxyes for sure, I offer a 15min free lesson. So we can arrange that. Please write me an email to didgemama@gmail.com
Thank you! I keep practicing this and want to move into fun stuff 😁
Shanti Nagomi yeah!!! It’s all fun 😃. Keep enjoying! ❤️☀️🎶
Didge Mama Thank you❣️😍
Thanks a lot for the great tutorial! I got a question: I think I got the drone (there is a deep and a higher sound when I am playing and with the tongue and the cheeks I can change it). But the high sound is way more quiet. How can I let it sound louder and more clearly? :) Thanks alot and greetings :)
Thanks for your question!Interesting because normally the higher sound is more loud. Maybe can you send me a soundfile or video? So I can reply in a good manner. To didgemama@gmail.com. Thanks. Love and light
Hello Mama Didge, Love your energy and enthusiasm to teach!
Thanks for great tips. Keep it going. Stay blessed & healthy.
Will update on my progress😊🤗
Oh wonderful!!! Thank you 🙏❤️🙏. It will be super to hear how you are going with the tutorials. Sending love and light ❤️☀️
@@DidgeMamaHey Mama!
An update, there is quite a lot of progress. Well, the lips don't lie😉😂 I'm working with the cheeks a bit, as the lips and tongue work and coordinate and bring out good music. Circular Breathing is also a challenge...
Will keep you posted! Thanks again for these lessons!
Sending love and peace from Ukraine! Stay healthy and strong. Later Gater!
@@varoonitagi hi my beautiful friend, thank you for the update. Keep enjoying the videos and play around with the exercises. You stay healthy and strong. ❤️🎶☀️
Thank you ! I just got it ! Now I will practice this ! 🙏🏻
Ah so wonderful to hear!!! I hope you keep enjoying my tutorials. ❤️🎶☀️
Hello DidgeMama...I was introduced to the sacred instrument many many years ago the sound grabs my soul I just ordered one a beginner one to try..i was searching and searching.. and found you're RUclips so I will be practicing thank you
So wonderful you started playing! Enjoy the learning and journey ❤️🎶☀️
Thankyou..I just received mine and went to the lake ..started practicing from your 1st tutorial video thankyou
Sounds perfect!!! Have fun 🤩
You are fantastic, thank you so much!!!
My absolute please! I’m happy you like it ❤️🎶☀️
I got a Didgeridoo i got it from Australia and it originally one and it very hard work my fish in the tank may play with there lips i am Laird Roger from uk
@@MaryKRoger-y8d ja super! Enjoy playing and learning this amazing instrument ❤️🎶☀️
heyy, really liked this video. I kept noticing people playing from the side of their mouth and so I tried to imitate that. I got the sounds but I was unable to unlock certain other things but yeah playing from the middle makes so much sense. I can see some progress. Thanks!
Happy to hear!!!🙏❤️🎶
Wow.. I'm in.. the lip exercise will be interesting on my dog walk tomorrow.😄
Yeah perfect Steve. And then apply it on the Didgeridoo. Have fun ❤️🎶☀️
I used to know how to do the flap when I was a kid and I can't figure it out now!
It’s about relaxing and letting go. Good luck ❤️🎶☀️
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Fantastic! SO helpful! Thank you!
Great! Happy to be of assistance 😉😀❤️
That little diddy at the end was splendid!
Haha wonderful to hear that you liked it!!!❤️🙏☀️🎶🎶🎶
It's so much fun, but all I can do is make mine sound like someone had a bad taco day.
Hahaha, maybe you need to buzzz your lips faster? Good luck!❤️🎶☀️
I have a didgeridoo it looks kinda ornamental I do get a sound from it but the opening has a nasty coating on it like to buy pne...how doI choose a didgeridoo that's right for me..I don t read music so bit lost thank you ?
Hi dear Sian,
My tutorial #23 is about choosing an instrument. I have only top end Didgeridoo’s for sale. Two from duende didgeridoo, made by amazing maker @dubravko Lapaine. And one by also fantastic maker LB didgeridoo @bertrand labourdette.

I habe a question. I got a digeridoo from Bambus. I am a beginner. I can do play the digeridoo BUT I cannot do the right breath. I need a lot of air to do sounds on my digeridoo.
Can it be, that the Bambus Digeridoo isn't the best to practice playing a digeridoo? Or is it only my fault?
Maybe you can send me a little video of you playing, so I can see and hear? You can send to didgemama@gmail.com.

Just beginning, and I find getting the higher sound difficult, it just goes to nothing. Will keep trying, I would really like to be able to play something on the didgeridoo!
Hi dear Christopher,
Make sure you don’t overblown but think to put a little idea of going to the toilet for a number two, if you understand what I mean. Good luck and have fun! ❤️☀️🎶

No I don’t, there is one or two mm of a gap. Thanks for your question!

Oh wat super leuk!!! Heel veel plezier en succes. Als je vast loopt, laat het me weten.
❤️☀️🎶
Oh yeah please make more!
NicRedVlogs coming Monday next lesson! ❤️👍
Lip flapping=Raspberry or motorboat! LOL. You were absolutely right about not playing from the side of your mouth. I couldn't get the pulsing drone sound playing from the side of my mouth. Tonight I said: "I'm going to take Didge Momma's advice and play fron the front of my mouth." I got the perfect droning pulse on a $3 piece of PVC pipe and all I could do was laugh for about 5 minutes when I realized I was doing it wrong the whole time! Love ya Didge Mama!
So happy to hear!!! Hope the other vids will help you progress more and more! ❤️🎶☀️
Thank you. Wish I had found you years ago. I have been playing on side of my mouth, badly haha. So now I am trying to correct this. Thank you for your help
Niki Taylor hi there my friend. A little off center is okay. Just make sure both corners of your mouth are outside your mouth piece!!! Good luck 👍🎶❤️🎶
I've been playing a little for about 18 months, watching lots of different teachers, and found that useful, so I'll follow you. My biggest frustration is can't seem to hit any high notes and I'm not sure how to improve this component. I still have a gap in my circular breathing unless I quicken it up with a bounce breath. Maybe you might cover these points in future tutorials. Thanks. Peter, Australia.
High notes, do you mean thrumpet tones, or high voice?
@@DidgeMama High voice, would like to improve animal sounds like dingo kookaburra dog bark, any notes that add more sound variety. Much of my playing has a sameness about it. Thanks.
@@petermarshall7882 in the tutorial about the voice, I explain that the high voice you focus it from the stomach. So stomach goes in and throat is open. Good luck 👍
Might be a daft question, but do you put your lips right up to the didgeridoo, or do you leave a gap from the mouthpiece? Can’t quite get the right sound yet!
Is actually a good question Christopher!!! I push the mouthpiece really quite strongly to my mouth, I really make sure I have a perfect seal. No air should escape. I hope you can find the right tone soon. It might also be the didgeridoo, if it has a leak or something it is really hard to get the drone. Good luck and ❤️☀️🎶
Love this
@@rohitguha27 I’m so glad to hear that. I hope you keep enjoying the rest of the tutorials. 🤩☀️🙏❤️🎶
Hi question.. I've been using my tounge to vibrate my top lip, I was wondering if you're supposed to use your tounge to increase or decrease speed, or just lips
Thanks for your question! Don’t use your tongue for the vibration sound, only the lips. ❤️🎶☀️
@@DidgeMama wow I didn't think you'd reply, I analyzed it for a while and I can kinda do it now, thanks didge!

Heel fijn uitgelegd. Heb vorige week een didgeridoo gekocht en krijg er al een goed geluid uit, hoewel het nog niet helemaal consistent is. Als ik het juiste geluid maak voel ik ook m'n hele gezicht trillen 😂
Heel leuk om mee bezig te zijn
Hi Richard,
Welkom bij de didgeridoo familie, super leuk dat je ook begonnen ben. Veel plezier met het volgen van m’n video’s. Als je ergens vast komt te zitten, laat het me weten, dan kan ik je vast verder helpen.
❤️☀️🎶
Hi there! My girlfriend and I love your videos, but she tells me that my lip buzzing doesn't look like yours. I suspect my top lip is the issue, perhaps it is too tight? I can sort of get a drone going on my didgeridoo but it takes too much air, more air than I think you or most didgeridoo players use. It seems inefficient to use so much air. I want to make sure I have the fundamentals down and can do a solid drone before advancing to anything else. I was wondering if you'd be willing to help me?
Thanks again for providing these tutorial videos!
Hi there, thank you. I’m so glad you enjoy my videos. I would love to help. Maybe we can do a Zoom lesson? So I can see what is the issue and see if I can direct you in a good way. Let me know if you would like that. Sending love and light
@@DidgeMama Hmm, I sent a reply yesterday and I guess RUclips removed it because I disclosed my email address. A zoom lesson sounds wonderful. What would be the best way to contact you?
@@SleightSoda hi there, I also have a DidgeMama Facebook page. Send me a message there and we will go from there.
@@SleightSoda and maybe didgemama@gmail.com can work directly??? We will see
@@DidgeMama I sent you an email :)
I am a beginner player. I have an inexpensive synthetic didge: Toca DIDG-CTS Curved Didgeridoo
Brand: Toca. I want to get a good, easy to play wooden one. I would like one with a higher drone. Do you have any suggestions what I could purchase and where to purchase one. Thanks.
Tom Schipper hi! I have some amazing instruments for sale. So if you are in the neighborhood of Amsterdam you can come and try them.
Love it thank you for explaining... Crazy question! I have never played any musical instrument and had bought a tourist didgeridoo from a shop here in Cornwall... is it meant to have a mouth piece inside the hole ? Or do you try and play it with your mouth 👄 on the bamboo part ?
Angela Rogers I’m glad you find it useful! About the mouth piece, how big is the hole??? If it is about 1.8inches and not hurting when you play, it is fine just like that. If not, can you wait till Monday? I will do an extra video about mouth pieces!!! ❤️🎶☀️
Didge Mama I’ll go and measure it now ! It seems huge but as I’ve said I’ve never played anything before so it’s all very new ... but I’ve dreamt so many time of playing it
33/35mm (or 1 inch and a 1/4)
Angela Rogers I would make it with beeswax a bit smaller, I’ll show it on a video coming Monday. Because it should be not more than 30mm.
Angela Rogers do you think you can get some beeswax somewhere?
Huge Fan Love you Thankyou for your videos
Thank you so much Ingrid!!! And my absolute pleasure ❤️🙏🎶

gratitude for finding the dige mamma 🙏🏼 always wondered why some players played from the side of their mouths. uncomfortable. stay aligned.
Indeed, keep centered 👌
I can't make the fluttering with the lips tight, as much as I try, help please
Hello sir, should I touch my lips to the instrument thoroughly?
Hi there, yes make sure there is no air escaping. ❤️☀️🎶

@@MertSAVAS for sure, you should play!!! 🤩🙏❤️☀️🎶

@@MertSAVAS 🙏❤️🙏
I csnt get any noise at all as soon as i put my lips to the mouth piece it stops the vibration
Thank you for your comment, and how wide is your mouthpiece? Because it might be on the small side. I hope if you can provide me with more info, I will be able to help you! Love & light
@@DidgeMama i think it might be very small in comparison to a standard didgeridoo i think i need to keep practicing gettin that faster buzzing
Maybe your mouthpiece is to small. See if you can make it a bit bigger. ✅❤️
Hi Didge Mama! I wanna become an amazing player as well! Ive incorporated this lip exercise into my dog walking air didge routine 😊
Ah super!!! And is it also working in your didgeridoo?
👍❤️🎶☀️
I just heard you, sounding great!!!👍🎵❤️
YOU ARE THE BEST 🤗
Hahaha 🤪, thanks 🙏❤️🙏
Thank you 🙏🏽
My pleasure 😀❤️🎶☀️
Thanks, i can not do it yet, see you in a week
Good luck and when the lips are working check out tutorial #2
Hiii., plz help Guys, i just can not buzz INSIDE the didge with the seal touching the lips. It obstructs me from produsing any buzz whatsoever. The seals ring just traps my muscles dead, i let the didge rest on chin. I tried putting didge on the floor and not to rest on chin to remove the pressure. Doesnt matter, as soon as the didge seal encloses my mouth - its dead. I can buzz without the didge, reproducing what is shown in the video. I have Meinl Trombone Didge, complete beginner. What am i missing?
Hi D,
You probably need to make the mouthpiece bigger. Or really learn to make a perfect duck face. I will be happy to help if you are up for a Zoom class?
Love and light
@@DidgeMama hiiiii, yeah sounds good. How does it work? When the class happens?

@@kokkiematematika1931 perfect!!! 👍💯
So first lesson understood, but I am at 40 percent, i will move on to the 2nd exercise now, and practice the first continually.
I've started on 110 cm Didgeridoo and bought 185 cm....On the small one I have no problem at all ,but the big one....I'm just stuck. Cannot play simple note. I'm trying and I can only keep the deep sound for 1-2 seconds. Deep water I got in.
I can help for sure. You can send me a little video of you trying the 185cm, to my didgemama@gmail.com and I can see/hear what is happening. ❤️🎶☀️

I've been playing Didge for around 6 months. I can get a drone going and a few rhythms with circular breathing, but I'm always worried my drone is off. I came across this video and I have never been able to vibrate my lips outside of the didgeridoo
How is it going now with your drone and lip buzzing???
@@DidgeMama thanks for the reply :) It's getting there slowly
Damn! I started playing from the corner. I can get a droan at least.. i just cant seem to get a good vibration from the front. No matter what i do😢.. Hope you see this message Mama 🙏🏻 blessings
