“I loved discovering that there are different types of breathing with the didgeridoo, and that you can use different parts of the tongue, cheeks, throat and belly. And also that different sounds let you take breaths I had no idea existed.”

Elisabeth

★★★★★

“I like the structure of the course: intro video, then the exercises. For me, it’s also very important to be able to go at my own pace. In fact, I still haven’t finished the course! I appreciate the comments on the little videos I sent.”

“Gauthier challenged me all day and I ended up mastering circular breathing. If you hesitate to take part in one of his workshops because you feel you don’t have the level, a bit like me before registering, don’t hesitate any longer: Gauthier adapts his course to your practice, you will learn a lot.”
