Next up on our audition tour is The Academy, whose audition season starts in just under two months, on December 4th! This season, they'll be hosting multiple satellite camps across multiple different states, plus their full weekend audition camps in the Phoenix area, and video auditions available for each section for anyone who can't attend an in-person audition. Their audition materials are available right now on their website, and there's no better time to start preparing than today! For more information about their or any other corps' audition materials, check out the 2027 Audition Information spreadsheet in our bio

some color guard motivation ✨🏳️⚔️

Don’t let comparison convince you that you’re behind.
Don’t let someone else’s technique make you question your own progress.

Someone else getting the skill faster doesn’t make your growth less real.

You’re allowed to change how you move.
You’re allowed to relearn things.
You’re allowed to take the long way.
You’re allowed to love color guard even if your relationship with it looks different now.

It’s so easy to scroll and feel like everyone else is stronger, cleaner, more flexible, throwing harder skills, getting more opportunities.

But you’re seeing everyone else’s highlight reel while living every second of your own process.

So ask yourself: if you couldn’t see what everyone else was doing, would you still feel behind?

Keep spinning. Keep making things. Keep finding your way 🤍
