HOW TO MARCH FOR MARCHING BAND

[@sailorsavvy9690]

Don't lock your knees...I learned that the hard way 😅

[@thegreatbritishgamer7103]

Same i passed out and fell over when i started marching again

[@CallMeLudwig]

what happend?

@@CallMeLudwig i passed out😩 lack of blood flow haha

[@sailorsavvy9690]

@@CallMeLudwig when you lock your knees, your blood flow gets trapped in your legs, and not enough goes to your head

Having had experience in both the Army and in marching bands, I don't know why everyone is crying about marching bands practicing drill. The purpose of marching drill is to move large bodies in formation efficiently, applies to military and band formations. Granted there are some mistakes in this video but give them a break.

My teacher would say,"heels together toes apart."

I’ve been in color guard for the last two years and decided to March for my senior year and I only marched my freshman year before that so this is a great refresher

[@cthklh1458]

lmao. their feet don’t have to be at a 45 degree angle since this is MARCHING BAND not JROTC. chill out. but, they should be taught not to lock their knees or they could potentially pass out.

[@leasiahelms2945]

We got taught that our feet need to be at a 45 degree angel when flanking or traversing

[@cthklh1458]

Lea Tutorials okay. it differs from school to school. but i was saying their feet DON’T need to be at a 45 since that’s how the school has taught them and a lot of other people were saying that their feet needed to be at a 45. most of the facing movements are really similar or almost the exact same to JROTC movements. marching band takes a lot of work, so i appreciate the work that you guys put in.

[@anthonyapuzzo6131]

klh.13 have you ever watched DCI, most of those corps halt at a 45.

[@lottapitchy9625]

Lol our marching band has us at 90 degrees but we always place against the giant 6A schools so I’m not complaining

[@captainkiwi77]

@@anthonyapuzzo6131 some do, some corps have a wider turn out roughly to 90, many corps still go parallel. And outside of the incredibly small world of just corps, most high schools and colleges have drastically different approaches including legs apart, or 3rd position. For a high school... there is no reason whatsoever to limit your students to protractor perfect 45degree angles.

[@maddiefr5437]

Joined for the first time today and I’m never doing it again 💀🤚 Concert band has always been for me but not Marching!

[@kathylyn5577]

It’s really hard work but it pays off big time if you stick with it! But if you just want to stick with concert band, that’s still awesome!

[@polmix4186]

Omg John Wick is musician too

[@asroriadraws]

same I started marching from concert this school year and I HATE marching, plus since I'm new I'm suuuper behind and it's really messing with my self confidence. It looks super cool but I'm just not used to it, I'll do concert band again next year if I can 🤠

[@lesliechavez8045]

In attention you have to stand and your feet have to be in a 45° angle

[@GuppySingh13]

yes

[@CoreyDrumming]

Some groups (like mine in particular) keep our feet parallel with toes and heels touching while at standstill and marching

[@cadenhembree9693]

Leslie Chavez it depends on what group you’re with

[@kaleighdejavasquez5101]

All bands have a different form and look with the way they do things and the way they want them done. 40° might be what your band does, but they are mostly different.

[@dominiclivermore6982]

All millatry marching skills other than they dont have it at a 45

[@danielbarlow8756]

I’m a senior in a show style marching band which means we pop 90s when we March. I always wanted to know how do they March in corp style band

[@Hulkamazing]

I love how he sais the platform and then touches a shoe and doesn't even have it in front of the camera..

[@issa5308]

Your feet have to be at a 45° angle and there gonna pass out from having there knees locked to like that too long

[@plvvt0v]

for attention instead of having our feet together we have them apart at a 45 degree angle

[@carlenger9707]

I realize this is coming from a Blue Knight and not someone in hs/college marching band, but, despite looking strong, the guy in the middle in the glasses also looks extremely tense. Getting the shoulders back is good, but don't force it. You can still look strong without looking like you're in pain.

[@saratennant3993]

Yeah and the girl with the dark hair is rolling on the outside of her foot, she gonna hurt something doing that

[@joseomarcifuentesmartinez1826]

Muy bueno el tutorial, agradecería si subieran uno, haciendo una coreografía y explicando paso a paso, los movimientos

[@will-ow6148]

I always mess up my feet people say I'm just walking but I put my left foot first 😭😭😭

[@shannasubing1833]

so i am currently in a military marching band in highschool but the college i’m thinking of going to is a corp… is it hard to transition?

[@kelslynn944]

If u r talkin abt forward and backwards marching then its not really hard but when you are on the practice field is when ur front is easy but going backwards is a little more hard but moving left and right is much harder im also a rookie too so ur not alone.

[@captainkiwi77]

If you can teach an inexperienced high schooler to March corps in 2 weeks of band camp to a basic passable level, I guarantee you can make the transition to corps style in the same amount of time to a higher level as a college student with marching experience

[@jenadyhiaberrios1165]

Marching band or JROTC?

[@morganhaley6132]

Marching band. Dont worry i had to look at it for like 8 minutes to figure it out

[@lanie6167]

me trying to learn how to walk like seulgi :,)

[@bristibasak7358]

In attention, your leg should not be joint at all. your hills will be joint, and your feet should look like a 'V' and your feet have to be at a 45 degree angle and also the way of your left haste, right haste and about is wrong

[@brothaNblue]

It's different every where you go. I was taught feet together.

[@Hulkamazing]

It looks so weird to see how they do it because I put one hand behind my back and yell VP cause were the vidor mighty pirates band of bands marching band and we take 30 inch steps, we open our hands and put them to our sides same thing with the chest out

[@jackx4311]

Well, isn't that NICE, cupcake? I'm sure your mummy is VERY proud of you . . .

[@Hulkamazing]

@@jackx4311 Yeah, she is. Also, wasn't aware that I taste delicious.

[@windrunnerpaints6993]

is this the same for all high schools?

[@snazzycat207]

Nah, mine makes us stand at a 45 degree angle in attention and we push off our left foot

[@jellofish1455]

My dumb butt missed first day parade practice 🙃. I only hold the banner but still

[@dr.avacado4229]

I want to learn even though the parade is today

[@xoxo_grace80]

Same

[@horseface1038]

where is the uniform?

[@kaleighdejavasquez5101]

They are probably in band camp or in band rehearsal. It's a video for gosh sake, nobody wants to get all dressed up for that. They are just teaching and showing the fundamentals, and technic of marching. With uniform it may be hard to show the way your legs are supposed to move if you have baggy band pants on.

[@GuppySingh13]

this is not even proper parade

[@jamallwells8786]

This is almost rotc 😐

[@drheusmann805]

As an AFJROTC Cadet, this makes me cringe. Sadly enough, our marching band used to use old army BDU's

[@captainkiwi77]

And that’s the difference between a military style marching band and a more corps style aligned one. 45 degree splits do not matter at all to this style

[@mcrib112]

Is this band or rotc

[@cassidygalvin107]

this is high school marching band

[@mcrib112]

Cassidy Galvin they are learning parade rest and attention and right/left/about haste

yep it's helpful for field shows

[@martsharpe709]

This was lit

[@kadynorr7165]

Idk if it is a necessity but it bugs me that when they go into forward March they don’t go up to their toes before marching…that’s what I was taught and not seeing that bugs me lol

This is not marching marching band marching with 90s this is toll stepping

Marching band is often related to military I bet you aren't even in the military or Army of any sorts
