This whole concept of 'throat breathing' was raised by UK didj radical Stan and was never referred to as such prior to this.

Gday you all

Short question by a newbie concerning retroflex tonguing in traditional style.

I worked through the frequently mentioned "Hard Tongue"- CD for a while now. There is said: "in faster rhythms you take a short breath after every 'dhrll'" As far as I can see in the youtube videos all the great players do so.

Is it normal that this "short breath" is by far the hardest part? I think I made some progress in the rolling sound, the pressure and all, but breathing while retroflexing seems hopeless. Did I miss some crucial instruction? Is there any tip?

Thanks for answering

Try it again and again. Without didge: dirll and breathing,faster and faster. Then with didge. After some hours you learn to breath without thinking about it.
