So, you have finally decided to pick up the fine art of baton twirling. As you already know, Starline Baton has all the supplies you need to get started on baton twirling. Once you get all of your supplies, including the perfect baton, a case for the baton, and footwear, it’s time to pick the studio that will get you performing at the level you desire in regards to baton twirling. Starline Baton has some guidelines that you can follow so you can find the perfect studio for you.

• What are You Looking For? The type of training you require depends on the level of baton twirling you want to achieve. If you are looking for more of a recreational type of activity, then a once-a-week class should be enough. However, if you want to be on the competitive level, then you need to find a studio that will help you get to that level. These types of studios should allow you to take multiple hours of classes a week in order to properly prepare you for the competitive baton twirling world.
• Talk to Other Baton Twirlers. Just by asking other baton twirlers about where they train can really help you decide where you should be. A lot of the times, these baton twirlers have been to different studios and can offer you insight on more than one studio. You can also peruse the Internet for blogs and online forums where other baton twirlers are talking about their studio to help guide you.
• Decide How Much You Want to Travel: Sometimes the best place to train isn’t close to wear you live. If distance and time do not matter, it will broaden your options when choosing a studio.
• You Narrowed It Down? Investigate: If you are lucky enough to have more than one option for a baton twirling studio, it is time to visit each one and see if they are the studio you should be at. Talk to the teachers, look at the schedule and see if the times and days of the week work for your schedule. Be sure to also see how the studio is maintained. A sloppy, dirty studio can represent a sloppy way of baton twirling, something that truly matters if you want to compete.

Once you have decided on the perfect baton twirling studio for you, it is time to take your baton twirling to the next level! For more information on all things pertaining to baton twirling, please browse our blog, or contact us at 931-528-7829.
