It's taken me about a year to get the hang of vibrato. Coming out much easier but still takes effort. I sort of feel my vibrato starts at different places, depending on the note. But I do sort of try to get it to originate from the diaphragm..... depending on the note, it doesn't, but the key for me is to "aim low". Otherwise, it originates too high or I end up getting it in the embouchure instead.
I can simulate what I try to do by blowing out a narrow stream of air, and using my diaphragm to make pulses. Varying the air speed or pulse rate of the stream, you can then feel the pulse originating at various points between your throat and your diaphragm.
I'm no expert, but that how I get it to work.
