Dark Horse: Guard Routine

Robin, Shannon, and Rebecca performing their routine to Katy Perry's Dark Horse.

[@bleachonthebeach4921]

the clanks the flags make when you all hit at the same time is my favorite noise omg

[@patricecampbell1214]

bleach on the beach sameeeeeeee

[@lorrajoy]

That’s my pet peeve 😭😭

[@elliejeannin6943]

That noise if from the weights being lose😢😢

[@arielleforeman2923]

That fluttering silk noise 🥰 also, lovely ripples ladies!!

[@brittniestafford7817]

Most colorguard thing I’ve heard in a while “ow” and not even missing a beat. I’ve been the girl in the middle and she handled that perfectly.

[@domolishious4795]

middle girl: aaaaand pose

[@KibouAoizoraVT]

she did not drop it, it was a floor catch

[@janiyahcooper1325]

Domolishious I do it all the time "and catch" *drops it* *Poses* "And that's totally how its suppose to end"

[@joynotjoyce9400]

😂😂😂

[@LesAnderson]

When the girl in the middle dropped it she played it off sososososo well!

[@heythatsprettygood7672]

Les Anderson she actually played it off the opposite of well lol

[@alcatraz754]

Hey, that's pretty good She played it of well

[@boopsauce2516]

@@heythatsprettygood7672 okay, imagine you've worked your ass off on a song during band month. You finally are practicing again but your director decided to pull out their phone and recorded. You miss your toss. Simple mistake right? Dropping the flag happens to everyone at some point. Someone decides to comment that you played off missing the toss well. You checked the replies and saw that someone thought and decided to comment the exact opposite Keep your negative opinions to yourself, eh?

[@megan8932]

@@heythatsprettygood7672 not to mention they are kind of like a family it's something to bond over

[@mirandanichols458]

sooo much cleaner than most group routines I've been seeing on here lately. Thank goodness there are still guard members out there that understand counts and synchronization!!!! Good job!

[@juwlofga]

Thank you!

[@treehousetroll]

Go watch my video from Seymour prep

[@jadenbejumpin]

every guard kid in existence has seen this video😭

[@lukest.romain6208]

FOR REAL

[@phoenix-jj1ic]

color guard Is so fun

[@krystinabilliot128]

yes it is

[@taylorhall5952]

I swear

[@ekirvan]

Yeah it is

[@TheSkyward95]

Wish i can do it...

[@akilaalarie]

hey Jimin

[@Certified_Necio]

Poor kid in the back just wants his clarinet :) you guys are awesome though keep it up :)

[@sighallie127]

clarinet master race

[@boopsauce2516]

Haha when the marching band kids come back in to put away their instruments and we're going over our choreo and they're literally up against the wall because they don't wanna get hit... yeah 😂

[@Vera-iv6mn]

I congratulate whoever wrote this routine. In the chorus it is a little slow compared to the rest of the pace, but other than that, it was great! I am definitely going to use this as inspiration for my routine I'm writing for a halftime show! 😁

[@KatharineRadcliffe]

THIS IS SO FREAKING GOOD OMG

[@juwlofga]

Thanks!

[@alyssa9881]

them 45's though

[@janiyahcooper1325]

alyssa IKR

[@oliviapeterson8945]

1:14 the "ow" was so on beat hahaha

[@boopsauce2516]

@Righty's Creative Corner haha something similar happened to me a couple weeks ago. We were stretching and we took our sneakers off. Me, being the smol brain person I am didn't put my shoes back on, and while doing the routine (flourish with right hand at the bottom cheater) hit my foot with the flag...ouch lol

[@mirandapayne5365]

I have watched this video like dozens of times, and recently I decided to use the toss at 00:37 in my solo routine. This routine is beautiful, I love it

[@juwlofga]

thank you!

[@the_reel_elena]

this is literally color guard goals 🤩

[@marissaday3042]

I can't even tell you how many times I've watched this I'm on colorguard and I love it so much and this is just wow

[@_phaedra_1817]

I remember seeing this video when I first joined the Guard. I really wish our school had an indoor guard, and I didn't have to only twirl on the football season. I love being in the guard! Good job guys! This is beautiful!!

[@LexusNicoleGarza11]

Could you imagine how amazing this would look with a full squad out on the field!!!!

[@phoenixflamingtears]

Oh my god coming back to this after like three years and remember watching this in sophomore year and thinking “I want to do this” is such a trip

[@Alyssahetaliafan]

I have to learn the chest thing oh my gosssshhh! I squealed when I saw it!

[@krystinabilliot128]

same

[@janiyahcooper1325]

Alyssa Shash sameee I kept hitting my friend. accidentally gave her a black eye😅

[@ItsNotReallyOscar]

I'm literally obsess with this routine, you three are amazing

[@the_reel_elena]

ok shout out to the choreographer because this routine is STUNNING

[@jrseahorse5886]

My band guard act like dance moms lol always having drama even the moms 😂👌

[@jeannareadsbooks8475]

I WANNA DO THIS STUFF IT LOOKS SO COOL WHY DON'T WE HAVE THIS IN ENGLAND

[@juwlofga]

Probably because colorguard usually performs with the marching band during halftime at American football games c: Sorry

[@saragazvoda2753]

Winter guards are in england. /watch?v=MQ4duoxdGKg check this out?

[@ellie342]

We do have it in England

[@bethanybrackett2581]

Buy a flag and watch a bunch of KZbin video tutorials

[@joynotjoyce9400]

I really want to do this tho. I live in England tooooo 😫😫😫

[@Boondoggleist]

Literally one of my favorite colorguard videos. 😍😍

[@StellarSymphonyy]

The point of guard is to make it look easy, which we do, and is exactly the problem because everyone I know just doesn't understand how hard it really is and is never amused by it xD

[@queenexe3217]

I love how KZbin recommended me something from my own highschool just 5 years before 😂

[@miagrace4913]

Tbh my favorite routine on youtube so far XD

[@clarissacervantes1113]

These are my goals! This is my first year doing color gaurd! And greatly i made the team!😊

[@annistonsmith1136]

This is so cool! I'm in the VHS marching band as colorguard rn and our trophies have been racking up!!

[@sinxlairs]

I actually learned this choreography in approximately 2 days, and to be honest, that’s very quick for me! This video inspired me to push harder and strive to be a better performer! I just wanted to say thanks haha :)

[@mysticfatale7766]

How did you learn it, I’m new to this and just having fun but I can’t seem to figure it out

[@shelleyholman7112]

this is amazing! you guys were so clean!

[@emilymiller7569]

LOVE ITTTTTT I WANNA DO THIS WITH MY COLORGUARD!!!

[@moonmusic1044]

I really love watching this routine so much

[@yulizzamoralezz7265]

I love this! Reminds me when I was in color guard, I miss it so much!😭❤️

[@peaches6453]

If ya just don't mind me ima go grab my flag and uh try to learn this cause, This is freaking amazing and I cant stop watching it!

[@alandria1089]

Awe the girl in the middle is so adorable😂 when she kept messing up😂👏🏾👏🏾 still killed it

[@jacobwood2940]

Those 45's you guys do perplex me, but that toss at 0:40 looks really nice

[@courtneyskillman8416]

As a Director, I'd like to let you know that looks AMAZING! Great job girls :-)

[@juwlofga]

thank you so much

[@leilaconde3207]

That was a perfect double turn under girl👌🏼

[@madisonnelson9828]

Omg the girl in the back is killing it!!!!!!

[@kamfrusciante]

THEY'RE SO GOOD OMG

[@ofab203]

This is so clean. You guys are so much better than most of the groups I have seen on KZbin.

[@juwlofga]

thank you, but keep in mind these are 3 girls who spun together for two years c: it is much harder to do the same with rookies and vets who have never spun together before

[@mohh2338]

The girl all the way back did so good omg ❤️❤️

[@octaviapayge2487]

I love how the flags seem to snap in place and move with their bodies in tempo with the song. Also, when the lyrics are "Make me you're Aphrodite" and they plant their flags on the ground and spin around them is my favorite. TBH I'd love to talk to my Captain to see if we could work that some way into our show. It just fits to what we're trying to do and looks so cool.

[@EverythingCGuard]

This is actually pretty good. Most little group routines that people do on here usually aren't that fabulous, so I was definitely surprised. Good job.

[@juwlofga]

thank you so much

[@arielleforeman2923]

Ahhh the sound of fluttering silk. Beautiful ripples!!

[@Vera-iv6mn]

The beginning was so clever! *squeal

[@emmasmithlovely]

Wonderful tosses. Probably the most clean set of tosses I have seen.

[@juwlofga]

Thank you!

[@b7rnn]

i still keep coming back to this😩

[@_.Starmy.143._]

So fluid and together! Love it!

[@elizandranara3519]

Amazing job! So many tosses. I will definitely have to give this routine a try, looks fun!

[@elizabethsanchezreyes7722]

I'm so obsessed with the spin trick at 0:43 😍

[@shelbykipp98]

AMAZING I'm learning color guard this year and trying out next:)

[@kaiyacray6059]

I loved your performance! I loved how you guys were so in synch like so together and the work went perfectly with the song! Overall rating 1 through 10 it was 11!

[@juwlofga]

thank you!

[@auriana23]

Loved this routine. My guard loves country music so we don't get this alot

[@littlebitoffun6977]

THAT WAS AWESOME !

[@paulyoo5226]

Well done! This was beautifully coreographed and I could tell you guys are having a lot of fun with. There were a few out of sync moments here and there and I would love to see harder drill but other than that, this was really great!

[@ashlynjackson5640]

wow. I wish I was this good

[@FlynnTimeless]

So good!!! I love the routine^^

[@miacarina7189]

Great routine, awesome fail, now where's the full version??

[@juwlofga]

unfortunately this was an assignment for class and there is no full version :c

[@miacarina7189]

+juwlofga aw!!!!

[@Bbi_Official]

This is my school!! I can’t believe it the band room looks exactly the same 5 years later

[@samanthalazarowicz3121]

Gotta love that Dead Face tho...

[@aubrefry0920]

I've literally never seen someone play off a drop so well

[@janiyahcooper1325]

I have total played the 'Drop and pose' girl! Y'all are great I have to do a solo and I was looking at songs and found this. AMAZING!

[@fivemins]

Great routine!! I'm writing a routine to dark horse now for my girls and this was a perfect video for a few ideas!

[@julies5515]

Band any part of it isnt easy. I played clarinet for years. I tried out for the flag line in our group when i was sophomore. I wasnt quite coordinated enough for that. All the band puts in tons of practice for the half time shows. I loved my years in the band. Played from 7th grade through some college.

[@musicinmysoul77]

Coming from a flag choreographer y’all are dang clean! Good job!

[@LivyCat28]

these are the throwback songs i hope we do when i join gaurd lol, my first pole and silk are coming in in the next few days and my weights came in yesterday :D

[@LivyCat28]

Almost been a year I’m in my schools guard and we did a million dreams for marching season but I might learn this routine for fun lol

[@geeky9609]

Awsome recoveries!! Loved the ripples too ^.^ Earlier, when they did J-tosses in a file, if it fits with the music, you should make that a ripple set, but put it together with the rest of the gaurd and it would look really amazing!!!

[@victoriafitzgerald1386]

The wild moment when this is your high school 😂😂

[@juwlofga]

Wow I know they changed band and guard directors so I figured they changed the band room too go warhawks 😋

[@victoriafitzgerald1386]

@@juwlofga Yep! Fermin and Cavender and I'm not entirely sure on the guard instructors names. Which is bad bc I'm trying out for winter guard 😂

[@victoriafitzgerald1386]

Oh, and same practice flags too 😂

Woah. This popped up in my recommended. And you're thinking of Mrs. Banbury. This is where I go.

Timing is really good I loved it but try to smile more

Beautiful, flawless, all of the above 👏👏👏👏👏 I wish me parents would let me do colorguard but they just don't like it idk wrong 😑

[@lindsaypeters5667]

It's super fun! You should convince them to let you try it out, because otherwise it's an opportunity you'll regret missing.

[@MrTreeman1977]

im in Colorgaurd...you can get hurt very easy...I almost broke my hand already....😂

[@509draglegends9]

I thought this was very good. and I love how the middle girl played it off lolz.

[@spicyspinner313]

At the last spin before the toss at the end I couldn't tell if that was a ripple or bad timing but either way it looked flawless

[@clarefields2710]

OMG I LOVE THIS SO MUCH! I'm totally going to learn this with my 2 guard friends.

[@kaylajoseph5512]

Great job!! Looks amazing.
