Breathy Sounds

I'm new to this site and I've been playing flute for about one year. When I play the sound is ok but it is super breathy sounding. What can I do to fix this?

It might be your flute or it might just be the way you are breathing. Try making the opening in your lips smaller as you play. That's just my guess

Practice inhaling. You might get light-headed, so be careful. Open your lips a bit more and breathe in DEEP as if you had been under water for way to long and were starving for air.

Go to YouTube & check out flute teaching videos by James Galway, Nina Perlove & Jennifer Cluff. That'll help you.
