[@jennaswordsandstuff3236]

I just bought a new baton. I'm 46 years old, and I twirled a long time ago, but want to start again, and your video is great. Can't wait to watch more.

[@kaydeejaynelowry5388]

This works so well for my daughter! She just joined majorettes and this video works well for her. There are so many in her class and not enough time to learn completely so she can come home and watch this and learn her twirls!! Thank you so much for sharing this!!

[@Striderskunk]

I'm learning this just to mess with my office mates lol

[@abundantharmony]

ugh

[@nemo227]

It's important to be ready with surprises for your co-workers. Show them just enough to keen them off balance.

Did it work??

[@amethystwill]

No, because same 😂

[@lucygirl4926]

I've watched a couple of videos and there seems to be a bit of a crossover when it comes to common vernacular for certain tricks. Why get all bent out of shape? This is a very instructive video. She appears to be very experienced and a patient teacher.

[@Twirlplanetbatons]

+lucy girl Thanks so much for your comment and the support! You're right....the terms and names used for twirls vary a lot, depending on different regions and coaches. So glad you find the video helpful!

[@kaii-lee4300]

+Twirl Planet I really learned from this

[@bengy757]

Thank you very much for sharing this tutorial with us. I'm music teacher and I'm helping a school band where I work. This tutorial is perfect for girls that are trying to do something with baton. From Bogota, Colombia my congratulations and great-full hello.

[@Lyndsayarielle]

Check out my baton tutorials!

[@Twirlplanetbatons]

Thanks for your feedback, Kaydee! That is exactly why we posted this How To video, so that it can be watched repeatedly as you continue to practice. Glad your daughter found it helpful :)

[@uabcjgrad2006]

Wonderful Tutorial--very calm, relaxed. I twirled in HS and loved EVERY second of it! Matter of fact, I can't bear the thought of getting rid of my baton some 15 years later!

[@launabanauna496]

Why would you contemplate getting rid of your precious baton(s)? I just purchased my first baton, and I'm 60 years old, I've always wanted to learn to twirl baton. It helps keep arm hand and wrist strength up, and coordination. I plan on twirling the rest of my days.

[@VictoriaNoel1882]

i am so sad my highschool marching days are over... but i got the best news last night :D my lil sister is gonna be able to twirl and i am co sponsor :)

[@natalielong6684]

[@Twirlplanetbatons]

Awesome, Nikki! You are welcome :)

[@mochizou823]

After watching Tamako market and Tamako love story I wanna join baton twirling at me school so thank you for helping that dream come true

[@bonnieonthesideee]

I did baton when I was 9 and I’m trying to improve

[@Twirlplanetbatons]

@babygray11 Great to hear from you, and glad to hear you enjoyed the video. And I agree...if you find color guard a bit too easy, definitely pursue baton twirling. (Or find a color guard doing more challenging & difficult material. There are AWESOME guards out there doing crazy, creative, and difficult stuff!)

[@Josie_777]

Thank you thank you thank you for helping me with the best way of doing that trick!!!!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💝❣💟💟🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅i ❤ you!

[@lizzyporrin8143]

[@Twirlplanetbatons]

[@outlandishmccandlish3873]

I found this video searching for a way to explain to my 8 yr old how Sailor Moon is able to twirl her staff on the show and I think this demonstration was amazing!! Now I was to go out and get myself a baton to twirl at 47 yr old, lol.

[@RosieBrownie]

[@twirlerkj]

Thumb toss is really easy. Beginers ive got oen tip dont think to much about it when you astart to get used to it then u just flow into it easier. :)

[@TwirlGuy]

great way to break the thumb toss down

[@jx14aby]

I'm inspired!

[@Twirlplanetbatons]

@twirlerkj That's a great tip! Thinking too much when learning can definitely get in the way.

[@arzoireajenkins1616]

Twirl Planet hi

[@tr-8r344]

I endorse this video

[@jrnumex9286]

i have like and tried some twirling after billys joels "allen town"

[@clairem7598]

This video was helpful

[@Twirlplanetbatons]

@uabcjgrad2006 Thanks so much...and thanks for checking out my video! That's great to hear that you have wonderful memories from twirling in high school : )

[@Twirlplanetbatons]

Fantastic...that's great news!

[@Twirlplanetbatons]

@IcyChaCha You're right, we do have a lot of different batons! We recommend our most popular beginner batons, the Starlet or the Super Rocket. Both have chrome-plated shafts and are professionally balanced. You'll find other affordable choices, too, if you prefer a different styling or look of baton. Just click on Show More in the description under the video, and follow the link for Beginner Twirling Batons.

[@louielyngorrespantollano4041]

nice

[@angelicathomas3661]

I doing this with Wrapping paper.

[@laur4711]

Same lol

[@sabramaan8843]

I always i try all every thing about baton

Hello! I am Brazilian and here in my country I have never seen this sport. Where would you have access to the rules to better understand how competitions work?

[@LisaNagra]

Hello Brazil, my husband didn't have this in India and I didn't think think it was in my UK school. However, from what I have learned from my children's schools. They are 22 now. This was sad and disappointing to learn but true. The girls participating in this beautiful, fun activity in are actually the reserved group of the most financially well off, most beautiful and most popular. Those "twirling lessons" are paid lessons that the girls attend along with gymnastics and dance to prepare to them for cheerleading at school.

[@girlsjusthavefun8675]

I'm really good with the baton when I was three I did it for fun now I have to take it serious but if I don't then I might mess it up

[@countessdracula1546]

this vid is awesome! :D

[@jeannethurman9025]

Thx I can do this now

[@VeronicaPews]

The time will show ;) And even I in the beginning hit myself in my elbow.. And I still do, though xD Good job with learning from youtube! We like the eager twirlers :D

[@luv2liquer69]

It drives me nuts how she makes it look so easy. Im trying to learn so i can teach my girls who are both in baton corps!

[@pandaninja220]

what if u throw it while it's still on the bottom of your thumb? will that affect it at all?

[@Twirlplanetbatons]

@chupachups969 You are welcome! Just keep practicing and don't give up : )

[@ariellesmith102]

I used to be a majorette and forgot how to twirl i havent done it in years im currently in middle school and i was twirling in like kindergarten

[@graciousplays3479]

Im a majorette 🥰

[@cloudynites1679]

I want to learn this so bad just so I can have something to do with my pencil in class XD

[@chasegoodridge8967]

CloudyNites u cant do it with a pencil it’s really hard

[@dhanrajshetty5161]

I just came to know about baton twirling after the Butcher's dialogue in series "The Boys"

[@BlackBowCosplayers]

I am a majorette I learnt this in 10 secs

[@Twirlplanetbatons]

Thanks for the question! The baton in this video is 29 inches. It's important to measure correctly to select a baton length that is a good fit for you. We have a video and detailed instructions on how to measure. Follow the link in the description above to our website, and take a look at How To Measure for a Twirling Baton.

[@Twirlplanetbatons]

@ShePrettyBADD It can be a bit difficult to find a store selling batons, depending where you live. You can check music stores (that sell musical instruments) and dance studios. Some baton twirling teachers/coaches also have batons for purchase. Online you'll find a lot of baton choices. Some companies (like ours) also ship very quickly : ) Good luck!

[@kellyfondren9206]

One time at my pa-pas apartment I found a plastic one and I kept it And then was looking for a way to use it. I know how to use it but I don't know how to twirl it twice.

[@amandanathalie5252]

I'm learning this because I want to dance You and I from dreamcatcher 😁

[@VeronicaPews]

Yes you will be able to twirl! :) Don't get too upset, because if you practice - you'll get as good as you want! :) I'm a twirler, and I have twirled for 10 years. I know that it can be hard in the beginning, but I know that YOU can do this! ;D

[@Moths000]

My mother and one of her aunts did this, so I’ve decided to learn it. Then again I have ADHD so it’s just something I’m hyper fixating on LMAO

[@PrehistoricWeinerDog]

how long is that baton? mine is 31 inches.

[@user-hw5hz2ij3j]

i just started baton and i allredy have a comptishon

[@girlpowergirl1434]

Its twirling. The baton is the stick

[@quachkelly]

Hi! I toke baton for 10 weeks! I know how to do a thumb toss. It's really hard

[@Twirlplanetbatons]

@UWTwirler I know....kind of like Martha Stewart meets baton coach : )

[@Djclyve]

I just want to twirl the thing! I can’t do these tricks!!

[@Batonprincess97]

If you guys are hitting yourself on the elbow when doing a thumb toss try pulling your elbow it. It also helps with more control.

[@charlottewaters6549]

i go to a baton club and in school I sit with a pencil and twirl it I get so but bored

[@julierehoric3856]

Jugglers association LOL

[@evygil]

what size is that?

[@hi-df5xz]

my baton is srsly big and heavy how am i supposed to do that-

[@iamkatharinekyle668]

I'm a baton twirling what size i need a 30 or a 32 cause I'm like 5'5

[@amanil.9247]

Brian Geans Your height doesn't matter, you need to hold your arms to the side like in a T and have someone measure your arms from your shoulders to your fingertips and you will know your size. Hope this helps.

[@eloisekelly6059]

do you go to majorettes i do
