Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hello If you are reading this then you must want to know what a majorette is.

Well ask yourself what is a majorette:

Your first response to the question "What is a majorette?" might be "A girl who twirls a baton in front of a marching band in a parade", and that would be a good description. But, it goes much farther than that.

"Majorette" has been described as a word meaning "desire" and "devotion", and that the dreams and admirations of every little girl, and a lot of older ones, too, are wrapped up in the word "Majorette". The majorette has been described as the example of the excitement, glamour, popularity, and spirit that so many girls strive for.
Being a Majorette is teaching yourself:
* How to get along with people.
* How to work as a team.
* To have a sense of ease in front of crowds.
* To have good posture, gracefulness, poise, and to "walk right".

Being a part of this majorette group might have had what seemed to be disadvantages, and performing in the cold and the rain didn't seem like fun. However, when the crowds reacted, and cheered, they felt that all that they had been through was worthwhile, and they wanted to do even better.


When you see a majorette in a parade, you see someone strutting and twirling a baton as she leads, or helps lead, a marching band. That much you see, and know that it is true.

She might be pretty, but that not likely to be why she's there. The really good majorettes have done what it takes to be good majorettes, and are only too happy to show what they've accomplished.

After all this, you may conclude by simply saying that a good majorette is a disciplined, spirited, confident, baton-twirling, strutting band leader. Yes, majorettes, to some people, have come to symbolize leadership.

I understand to be a good colorguard you have to have all of these qualities.
