What is circular breathing?

inhaling and exhaling at the same time, like blowing out through the mouth and inhaling through the nose...at least im pretty sure thats what it is.

do some breathing exercises and singing exersices. like do the siren (im sure you know what that is). and learn to brethe mainly from your gut, that's whwat you should feel epanindg when you breathe in

Circular breathing isn't too hard at all. Any didgeridoo player in the world can do it. It's kind of a necessary skill. It sounds a lot harder than it is, and it won't help with singing at all. It's only really useful for woodwind instruments and the like. Basically, once you start to lose your breath, you push the excess air in your mouth (not your lungs) out as you inhale through your nose. I can do it. Once you get it down, it's easy. Anyhow, I thought i'd just let you guys know.

I'm glad someone pointed that out.

take a deep breath slowly and evenly, for eight seconds, hold for eight seconds , and then let it out for eight seconds. do this five minutes a day, and after a week move up to ten seconds, then the next week 12 seconds, then 14, etc.

it increases ur lung capacity ( i had vocal lessons)

good luck.

btw this helps, i started doing it again, and today i sang that really high part from the chorus of the remedy by jason mraz when he says "i wont worry my life away"
