中級接力棒旋轉、投擲和技巧（1 根和 2 根接力棒）

In this class we will be building upon the basics learned in introductory baton classes. Each student will be taught and supported to their own individual level and skill in a supportive group setting. One baton experience is necessary for this class, as this class will build upon the foundational skills of: Figure Eights, Corkscrews into Horizontal Tosses, Flashes into Thumb Tosses, and Vertical and Horizontal One Spins. (These are all skills covered in my two intro classes: Introduction to Baton Twirling and Tossing Basics and Introduction to Baton Twirling, Tossing and Tricks 2) It is not required to take my first two classes to enroll in this intermediate class, however the skills listed above will be necessary to have a successful class. If your learner has had previous baton experience elsewhere, that is fine too! 
To teach a skill, I will demonstrate each skill to the students in real time, so they can see what it should look like. I will slow my movements down and describe each part of the movement. Then I will show what it should look like when it is mastered. *If weather or other circumstances prevent me from doing the skill live in class, I will show (live), a prerecorded clip of myself doing and explaining the skill. Then provide live support and answers as needed.   
After demonstrating and giving the instructions, students will have time to attempt the movement themselves. I will provide feedback and correction as needed, both to the class as a whole, if I see a common reoccurring need in multiple students, as well as one-on-one, if I see one student needs a specific direction. 
Students will be encouraged to show the skills and tricks they've learned to the class if they feel confident and would like to share. I recognize that some students will enjoy sharing while some may not want to. I will always do my best to be perceptive of your children's preferences while also working to be a big encouragement to them.   
*As each student will learn at their own pace, they may learn one or several of the below skills and tricks in my class, depending on how quickly they are able to complete each. These are some of the common  one and two baton tricks, as well as extensions of some basic tricks your learner may already know. I will support and encourage every student, every class.
All are welcome to join in the fun and excitement of one and two baton twirling and tossing!
