I don't want to be an ass but how long do you want to turtle?

Your talking like your just doing a freeze. Either way breathing

shouldent be a factor. Bust your turtle then when you transition

back to footwork then breathe. Focus more on balance.

Man you should be able to breath just fine. But it sounds like youve got your elbows stabbed to high on your gut, they should be stabbed into the middle of your 6-pack muscles. Remember the lower your arms are stabbed the easier it is to balance (and breathe).

I never had a problem breathing, but I did turn red. Practice holding it until you can talk, straighten your legs, and fart at the same time, without turning red. After that, you're pretty much 'gravy'. Make sure your turtles arent low to the ground, that makes it harder to hold. Put your elbows at about a ninety degree angle so you're balanced.
