Baton Twirling is Catching!
Saskatchewan Baton Twirling Association:
The Saskatchewan Baton Twirling Association (SBTA) is a non-profit, volunteer-based organization that provides leadership and support in the development and promotion of the sport of baton twirling in the province of Saskatchewan.
We coordinate, develop, assist, promote, and provide opportunities for the residents of Saskatchewan to participate in the sport of baton twirling as athletes, coaches, officials, organized clubs, and volunteers at introductory, recreational, competitive, and high-performance levels.
What is Baton Twirling?
Handling of the baton instrument to create visual images, pictures and patterns, executed with dexterity, smoothness, fluidity, and speed, both close in and around the body and by releasing the baton into the air.
Expression of the body through dance and movement to create a demonstration of strength, flexibility, physical fitness, beauty, aesthetics, and harmony in coordination with the manipulation of the baton.
The incorporation of gymnastic movements adapted to baton twirling to create additional elements of risk and excitement.
