My first attempt at this style of lecture video making popular on Youtube, full of jump-cuts. Making this, I was making my own skin crawl and was kind of amazed at just how many "so"s, "ah"s, "um"s, stutters, and weird lip licking that I did during the take. What I took out was way, way worse than what I left in. Yikes!

Good observation. I don't think we can get better at speaking without video, but it's incredibly uncomfortable. Worse than playing.
James Nestor in the book Breath says the healthiest breathing is through the nose at 5.5 seconds in and 5.5 seconds out. But he doesn't play bass trombone.
Very good Andrew. This could help lots of player that have problems like shutting of the airway before relizing the air.
This is really good, and not to complicated.

Thanks!
I don't know about how effective this would be for helping people who can't control shutting off their airway, but it might. I've never had that problem myself and I haven't had students who have had to deal with that, yet.
