borchnork Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 uhh, that you're really interested in learning guard for whatever reason, and that you want to take lessons with either him or anybody else that he has to recommend. He's apparently really big in the world of WGI so say you heard about him there. haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radchad Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 The best thing that I can say to do is contact one of this big guys up there in the WGI ladder. Brian Greenleaf and Matt Garrett are two really good ones. I had never done winterguard until August, when I joined Ars Nova, which is an Independent Guard. It was very hard, but I have a learned a lot. Even though it's in the middle of the season, I am pretty sure that for now, you could go to practices and learn basics in dance and equipment, then be ready come marching and winterguard season. JFYI, I don't know if you know this or not.. But equipment handling is one thing. There is this whole other thing called Dance.. **** dude. It will kick your butt. If you're interested in seeing some guard shows, here are a few good ones still left after most of them had to be deleted from YouTube. Ars Nova 2005 - Took 4th in the Independent Open Class. Seminole High School 2005 - Not sure what they took this year, but they are normaly in finals. Apex Winterguard - Great show. James Logan HighSchool 2007 - This is from the back, so sorry. They won Scholastic World. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Utgt8U31mwI...feature=related Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
