Choosing the Right Twirling Baton

Baton twirling is a unique blend of artistry and sport that combines dance and gymnastics with a twirling baton (or two or three!). It requires stamina, strength, flexibility, and accuracy while staying in step with music during high school and college football games, parades, competitions, parades – almost anywhere… And there’s absolutely no off-season!
