Solo Color Guard Routine to Fix You by Cold Play

[@ChibiGamerBrony]

I can't get over how gorgeous that silk is and how well she works it 😍😍😍

[@cierracarp2388]

+I love makeup wow that was so rude why dont you keep you negativity to yourself! she was great and you dont know if that was like her second year or something so shut your mouth!

[@cierracarp2388]

+I love makeup I am I can do rifle and saber I did a solo and got 3rd out of everyone I can do a quad pn saber and a double on rifle catch correctly I can do all 3 different kinds of parallels I can do most of the highschool level tooses and I can do parallels on weapon too

[@cierracarp2388]

+I love makeup cool your probably alot older than me too so you can do alot more things than I can I get it all I was saying was to keep all you negative comments too yourself ok and you where probably lieing about you going to state vecause you just cant go to state your whole guard has to go too

[@kaileygrace463]

+Redskinette 23 I know that this argument was weeks ago. I just wanted to say, I bet your both talented in your aspects of guard. Don't put other people down, work hard and you'll get what you deserve. The woman in this video doesn't suck, I find this beautiful. Spread positivity. :) love everyone.

[@cierracarp2388]

+Kailey Grace thank you very much and by the way I was defending the girl in the vidio because the other lady in the argument said that she was bad and that she could do better abd I did nit aprishiat her saying that about her because she did do an amazing routine ^_^

[@haleyhaynes7168]

This was so amazing and beautiful. I'm a first time marcher this year, and I'm in guard, these types of routines are what truly inspire me. I love this.

[@graceelizabethhoskins6379]

omg....beautiful...as someone new to guard this is goals

[@MeganAnn528]

I'm actually from Rockingham County and I don't think my old Guard used those flags this year. But thank you so much!

[@malannimalia3262]

virginia??

[@salomefarya6129]

That rifle work is so fluid and pretty! As a weapon fanatic, I say kudos to you!!

[@waynekue1]

I like choreography but not free hands lol

[@kalebbradburn5298]

What are free hands?

[@lorrajoy]

Kaleb Bradburn free hands are the hands that aren’t doing anything in the guard work so you can do a one handed toss and the other hand is the free hand. Usually people leave them hanging but they should either be straight down or be doing something with the work

[@gloop7458]

Queen Lorra Where I come from from we call it slapped Where your free hand is arm straight (unless body is bending) hand in a blade, thumb tucked in and right up against your side

[@Tanchikon]

This routine is so beautiful! I am in love aaaaa

[@lucydevereaux3725]

I almost started crying it was amazing

[@Mattt.huez09]

I love the beginning silk 😭😍

[@littlehylian9763]

Those free hands...

[@clindsey101]

Definitely going on my color guard inspiration playlists. Great job!

[@triciajoanklam6496]

Amazing! I just made color guard as a freshman a few days ago. I love your work, just a friendly tip, work on your free hand. I had the same problem at tryouts, but I fixed it and now it's a habit. But really great work overall. Sorry if this doesn't help, I just started watching color guard videos, and this was over a year ago.

[@yes.absolutely]

I thought this was sweet and wanted to remind you of your colorguard experience ❤

[@vanessahidalgo3206]

This is seriously brilliant. Teared up a bit.

[@queenietheroyalpain7805]

Love this routine! One thing you need to look out for is flexing and sickling your feet when you do choreo. But all in all it is a great number !!

[@SoapxGhost141]

Your really good :) keep up the good work

[@joshyjaguar1981]

Not bad , there was just barely any texture change , almost all of your flag work spun in the same direction. Great concept though 😏

[@scorpiocara6798]

Girl I got my life together with that flag. Great job. I'm seeing sooooooo much stuff that I have never seen before

[@heyitskathy2394]

Beautiful I kept getting goosebumps!!

[@Myamericangirl23]

In some of your tosses or even certain parts of it you had a free had, and you riffle was a little sloppy to me. But absolutely love the swing flag and flag work. I'm don't trying to criticize or anything, it's just an honest opinion. But over all I love it! Flag game strong💪

[@gloop7458]

face.it.to.reality It’s fine if you criticize, in fact you have them very constructive criticism

[@silver0fthemoon796]

wow your tosses are AMAZING. Any way you could make a tutorial on them? 😃

[@clairebroderick4495]

The pros among us make the impossible look effortless. Well done, you.

[@strawberryiesful]

That was so beautiful! I love the way you included all the guard equipment. Maybe it's just my obsession, but I think you should think of auditioning for Drum Corps International. With your guard talent, I believe you can get it. But it it kind of expensive.

[@MeganAnn528]

Thank you so much!

[@ricebowl4359]

SO BEAUTIFUL THE WAY YOU DANCE WITH IT IS AMAZING GOOD JOB

[@claytonmann1825]

The silk is so beautiful

[@pokegal9791]

Wow really great beautiful

[@JamieGirl-hc1to]

Your so good! Also the silk is beautiful 😍

[@MorganJanes150892]

A lot of great moments but there are no “big” moments because everything is SO big throughout the whole thing. The best part was the transition to swing flag because we had a second to breathe

[@Meggalex]

point your hooves!!! But that rifle work and the end of the flag work was gorgeous!

[@sisminhlan]

So great, Megan.

[@alanarich3]

this was beautiful

[@elizabethpigman6655]

I love this

[@cristyr8734]

wow iam amazed 😂i wanted to do this song for a solo to lol i use some of the diff routine in colorguard we did

[@Kovuu]

Rifles are hard as shit to catch! Kudos to you!

[@caileeyoung9497]

That the flag silk used we used in our winter show.

[@aarf]

really good for first solo!

[@abigailcarter3288]

I wish I could've saw more emotion in her facial expressions and how she worked it but overall skill is there defiantly

[@GGlovescj]

Beautiful

[@raykapi]

Amazing! Just remember on tosses to put your hands to the sides. It looks prettier than keeping your hands up like you are saying, "Gimme gimme" while the flag/ rifle is in the air. 😂 Just something to think about. 😉

[@SmallApple33]

Beautiful! I'm saving this for myself(: My only recommendations are to slow down (it looks very rushed), and to point those toes!! Great job other than that!

[@Theycallmewheezy]

you should do toss tutorials I'd love to watch them!!

[@nisaasaa4563]

this is so cool!! how can you do that😂 amazing!!

[@whisperplayz2400]

I really loved this work, the choreography was amazing! I just wish i knew how the free hands were supposed to look[since I'm going into my second year i also still struggle with freehands and am always looking for other people to kind of guide me]

[@dumbcat5527]

One handed parallel was nice

[@josieminer9798]

beautiful

[@breannakempf3914]

The one thing I would say is make sure that your catches are consistent. Also your free hands should be flat like your giving someone a high five!

[@user-mr1gx4im8r]

すごく、綺麗😌落ち着く

[@lisafuqua3188]

I was wondering where you got that silk from? It's beautiful

[@capricorn_bordem1618]

This makes me miss being in color guard..

[@m.rosekaup7461]

Where did you get that silk? It's so beautiful, when you spin it it looks like red and blue fire!

[@reesemcgeese824]

three things: 1) that was so pretty?? i lov really spinny work :) 2) it was weird how quiet the crowd was, i assume this was like a talent show, not a guard crowd 3) the stage mics were stressing me out so bad bc last year we were practicing in the auditorium and one of our guys got his silk stuck on a mic and it took like three people to get it down lol

[@madimoo7384]

you did a wonderful job! was this done with a 5 1/2?

[@annelymosqueda1812]

Buchanan high school color guard 2014 fixuou full show

[@yes.absolutely]

This is late and I know you've only improved since then. You remind people (me) that you dont got to be a professional to do amazing choreo. Thank you :)

[@yudayuda4915]

Awasome

[@Vera-iv6mn]

This is really great! (Love the ending by the way) Did you write this yourself?

[@MeganAnn528]

+Veruschka Pearce Thank you! I did write it myself with some inspiration from previous color guard routines I've done.

[@alisaruth6384]

This is so awesome! Are you from Randolph County? I swear I saw the stained glass flags at a marching band competition a few weeks ago.

[@katiewhite7687]

I love it, just has some choppy transitions

[@danielmclinn7173]

I try to watch solo performances and the majority just feel so Napolean dynamite lol but the flag work built very nicely. Good job

[@aristyaj503]

that silk thou

[@yudayuda4915]

Nice😱😱😍😍

[@imadeagushendradiwangga5629]

good

[@liisaloveslife]

Can anyone tell me what size and type of flag the first (silver) flag is? I'm needing something similar for a church program.

[@elainafox40]

today was my first day of color guard and I loved it .... how long have you been doing it??

[@kempbug]

Elaina Fox This is my first year in guard!! Are you still in it?

[@Kovuu]

I know you didn’t ask me XD But I love it when new people try guard. I’ve been doing it for 5 years now and I absolutely love it to bits and it’s still so much fun. My marching band is doing a number theme this year using the songs 24 Karat Magic, 1000 years, 25 or 6 to 4 and 8675309

[@alexofspades22]

I recently joined the vista ridge winterguard! I've only been to a few sessions but it's great!

[@jenniferlovesrats4456]

Well I just started (I have no training I started myself) and you are a Insperation! Can you give me some tips on how to make a cool routine? Plz

[@JamieGirl-hc1to]

Jennifer Epler be clean the work doesn't need to be hard just be super clean

[@galaxoxo4512]

Free handsssssss

[@itsmirkatbro]

What are the tosses/how do you do them at 2:54 and 3:15??? They both look super cool

[@emmanwolfe]

The first one is called a cross toss and the second one was a pole hit toss

[@jasminedesprez8249]

whered you buy your silk? it looks so nice!

[@MeganAnn528]

+Jasmine Desprez Both of the silks were just ones we had in our guard closet, so I'm not sure.

[@sofiacosio9659]

be careful with your free arms, catch stronger on rifle, and try not to do so many carves; other than that, nice job!!

[@elizabethranatza6614]

Megan this has so many views

[@MeganAnn528]

Yeah idk why

[@alisonmccain]

I don't know what this is, I don't know how I got here but it's fine 😆

[@mutiasarifaturochmi601]

Black Gold IW 2017 - One Just saying

[@ashleighmeeks6657]

how long did it take you to choreograph this?

[@MeganAnn528]

About two weeks

[@ashleighmeeks6657]

How often did you work on it?

[@MeganAnn528]

+Ashleigh Meeks right around an hour a day

[@ashleighmeeks6657]

I'm doing a fine arts showcase next Thursday, and I'm afraid I won't get it done in time.

[@MeganAnn528]

+Ashleigh Meeks I used a lot of work I had previously done before so it was comfortable. I suggest doing the same, and you'll do great!

[@abbeymaddox3114]

+1 like &+1 sub & this video is in 1/2 playlsits soon to be be relesed

[@toriwayne6890]

free arms were the worst part, rifle needs work and easy tosses

[@anthonywaterhouse6224]

Pretty, The choreograph goes well with the music. PERSONAL OPINION: Free hands and maybe need to do a rifle block to get your tosses down on rifle, Otherwise Good job! :)

[@raemarie6814]

Your good at choreography. But it's kinda sloppy. Especially in the aspect of arms and free hands.

[@l0velyquiet194]

Are you a color guard instructor?

[@raemarie6814]

Im not a color guard instructor. I just notice that stuff. Other than that it's wonderful.

[@_niush_ink_]

looks kinda stiff to me..

[@kotadox]

im in color guard

[@asltibs5761]

I love the choreo but it just bothers me that you're not pointing your toes

[@avani3510]

the flag work is awesome but the overall performance could be improved if you used your space a little better! don't just stay in the same general area the whole time, work on your dance techniques and move around more!

[@megandurnen8885]

Would it be rude or anything to use the rifle part for a talent show?

[@MeganAnn528]

Not at all! I don't mind.

[@megandurnen8885]

Omg thank you so much! I was having so much trouble writing my own work.

[@kaitlinm8053]

The beginning choreo was a little stiff and sloppy and the free hands were tragic but other than that great job

[@maryannricciotti8045]

Very good, although the routine looks rushed.

[@scorpiocara6798]

I never could spin that rifle. I don't like them anyways I think they are stupid. They definitely aren't cute and dainty like the flag.

[@avalonsignoraalmas6150]

I spin rifle, but I kinda don’t like it. It is really difficult, and it hurts. My instructor made me join rifle line tho. Lots of people prefer rifle over flag, but I don’t think you’re really missing much.

[@scorpiocara6798]

@@avalonsignoraalmas6150 oh great job

[@SomePeopleThinkYoloX]

There's too many pauses. Remember to press your left hand to the Seam of your clothing when on flag. same for rifle. but with your right hand. You also bounce when doing your flag tosses. keep it calm, keep it professional.

[@christina-vc2lm]

The flag work has to much spinning the same

[@christina-vc2lm]

Free hands !! 😡😡😡 sorry it drives me insane

[@waynekue1]

I like choreography but not free hands lol
