Michael
Mastery in Didgeridoo (Beginners to Advanced) and Circular-Breathing Lessons
Aloha. The Sacred Sound of the ultra-ancient Didgeridoo, is a profoundly powerful experience to be able to play, share, and grow from. My name is Michael, and in 1988 at barely age 18, I was fortunate to spend a great deal of time with Aboriginal Elders deep in the Australian outback. I was initiated into the 'DreamTime', and have been a Didj player, healer, Sound Journeyer, and teacher of the Didgeridoo ever since. I have played the Didgeridoo onstage live globally, and have given Didgeridoo concerts to the likes of Jimmy Page, Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers, and have opened for Michael Franti and Spearhead, among other international EDM festivals, and events. I have studied the Didgeridoo and sacred sound for decades, as well as the healing and wellness-enhancing properties of playing and long-term Circular-Breathing, the art of continually exhaling through the lips while playing a wind instrument. Mastery in Didgeridoo is for Everyone and anyone who desires to learn something different while having a personal tool for meditation, mind clearing, having fun, and sharing with others. From Beginners to avid Didgeridoo players, I offer one off classes, as well as Mastery Level 4 week Courses. I will have you playing and circular breathing in no time, and from there the real fun and true playing begins Topics Of Mastery in Didgeridoo Course: *Making a Sound and Didgeridoo Basic Playing Dynamics *Breath Awareness and Body Dynamics of Didgeridoo Playing *Circular-Breathing and Breath Rhythms for Advanced Techniques *Multifaceted and Diverse Sound Creation *Deep Meditation Techniques and Didgeridoo Recording *Live Lessons with proactive follow-up Home Work *Understanding Notes, Keys, and Octaves in Didgeridoo Playing *Playing Didgeridoo with Various Music and Band types I look forward to sharing some of the ancient secrets in the Sound of Didgeridoo Playing and music. This instrument is simple to create and make, and can easily be learned by anyone of any age. The Mastery of the Didgeridoo takes a lifetime and to play it like a Pro I warmly offer you this opportunity to do so in signing up for Lessons and Advanced Programs in Didgeridoo Mastery with me. Mahalo ke Akua and may the Sound Be with You. Aloha Regards, MC
