Hi from the new girl

Howdy! a little about me:

I am colorguard obsessed- I love playing I love performing- I love teaching- I love watching- I love learning...

I did winterguard for one year in North Syracuse New york- got a good base there... moved to prescott, arizona where i did marching band and winterguard for four years and my potential went right down the drain from lack of training, but i learned about show design and running a guard as i did both for them (ack!!!)... did marching band two years at the university of northern colorado... i marched one season with rings of saturn, a relatively new independent guard in tucson, arizona with great people and they will eventually go places :) And i marched half a season with Signature WG (due to unfortunate circumstances i had to leave them before performance season bega... I am still sad about that- b4t while with them i got to learn under the reative team for northern lights- amazing amazing amazing) ... i assisted with a couple tucson high school guard programs and had an amazing time- i love high school kids that have never spun before they are so eager to learn and are not aware that they "can not" do something- so will do whatever you ask- even if it is a front handspring under a six horizontal on rifle caught in the splits... not that i ever asked them to do it- but you know that within a week they would :P

Anyways=- I live in sf now and am not currently marching. I may get back into it someday. I am currently spinning fire and having oodles of fun taking my guard experience into that. Yeah.

    Are you a Burner as well? If you live in SF, you should check out the SF Renegade D&B Corps - their guard rocks and they are very cool people and a fun corps to hang with.
