Breathing

Just as breathing is important in our every day lives... ("duh?...")... breathing is a crucial element to beatboxing. For beginners and novices, finding a consistent supply of oxygen can be one of the most difficult tasks required of a vocal percussionist. 

Luckily for new and aspiring beatboxers, there are techniques which incorporate breathing and allow the percussionist to carry on without having to stop for fear of suffering a collapsed lung.

Techniques

Below, I have compiled a variety of techniques (both beginner and advanced) which will hopefully serve to benefit those individuals seeking help.
