Color Guard Sabre Basics

- Sabre basics tutorial video: includes spins (right and left + close), double time, triple time, alternates, hilt singles, and blade singles. I didn't try to face the back during this video so be sure to know that when I say right or left I mean your right or left and if I give a direction but don't say whether it's right or left that you reverse it. Easy enough right? Happy spinning!
And here is the message from my friend in the Scouts! Please donate to him guys! Thanks!!!

I marched Madison scouts
In 1984
And taught Phantom Regiment in 86...
Enjoy
It was SO much fun ...
I watched the rifle video didnt think I would need to watch the saber one our coach surprised us today
I feel that on a spiritual level 😂😂😂
Nicholas Carter lol yeah same😂😂
Thank you so much for this video! It was beyond helpful. I’m in my high schools color guard which isn’t very big. This year is the biggest it’s ever been with 11 people. And a total of 88 people all together including the guard and the band. We haven’t had a show that included Sabre during the short time “two seasons” I have been in the color and winter guard program “I just finished freshman year” going into sophomore year I made color guard captain. I really dunno how but I’m excited to take a lead. With that being said I and two others are the most experienced on the team and with never spinning Sabre in a show ever we were short of time during weapon and dance auditions that my instructor just put the three most experienced on Sabre line without an audition. “This kinda makes her sound mean now that I read it but I promise she’s the sweetest person I’ve ever met.” I had never even touched a Sabre until she put it in my hands. I think it’s lovely but honest to god I had no idea what to do with it. This video was very helpful! I am what my color guard likes to call a Rifle Queen. I love big tosses. I can toss a solid 8. I spend the majority of my time on my weapon. Also my guard does not tape the Sabre. We do have the same Sabre tho which appears to be a King.
Just saw this video. Hope you're having fun marching with the Madison Scouts! I marched with Pride of Cincinnati Drum Corps (1982-1984), Suncoast Sound Drum Corps (1985-1987). I also marched Pride's Winter Guard in the beginning years (1985-1989). Good luck this season and cherish every moment. Life goes fast after aging out. 😀
Mike Brown do you know mr. cotter?
if you marched the beginning years of pride, did you know Tod Hinton?
This is so helpful, at my high school we have a drill team called wooden soldiers and the captain gets a Sabre. Most of the time, the captain does very similar stuff. As captain this year, I really want to spice it up, this video helped so much.
Happy to be able to provide inspiration!
Congratulations on your achievement of working with the Madison Scouts! Not a small achievement!
You are very sweet and nobody should ever hit the dislike button.
You are inspirational.
Thank you.
How to prep for Sabre tosses , doubles, triples????
Thank you for this video! It's my first year (second season) of guard and my instructor told me to audition for saber line. This video really gives me a foundation!
This was so thorough and easy to follow, thanks! I've been having a hard time finding good sabre content for basics. Would be great if you posted basics of higher tosses too!
Thank you for posting this! My school never did sabre, but I really wanted to learn it. I haven't been on a team in years, but I still want to keep spinning :)
This video is so great! Thanks for posting this in depth video.
Wait a moment... Madison Scouts... I believe you guys had stayed at my school the past week. Maybe not you guys exactly but the Scouts. My band director was in the Scouts.
I appreciate your help! You’re a great teacher. Please feel free to do some review work. I have learned so much from you.
I wish you all the best in your senior year. ❤
Thank you for this video it helps a lot
this is so helpful and really well done! i just got a sabre for xmas and i’m so excited
Love your videos. I am in a senior (old folks :-D ) winterguard. Keep the great videos coming !!
Thank you for this! I’ve been having to teach myself saber because of l quarantine (which is not going well)
thank you for this video. I am in my school's color guard but I want to audition for the weapon line and I needed to know some basics.
Thanks for this Nick, I’m learning how to do all this now.
This was really helpful, I actually managed to get everything down well. Thanks
Im a freshman and I was trying to figure out what a saber was, and boy I was pretty surprised that its an actual sword 😳
I like your hoodie!!
Also, depending on what high school or college you went to hey are also called palm spins on rifle an sabre. The high school I was at we called them palm spins.
you think you could make a video on blue devils and extensions on flag?
I love it. and you😘💕😍
+Colt DeBlackmere lol
I need help with backhands and turnarounds! Can u do a video on that?
+KayReady yes! I can! I will start making videos again soon!
Smart man having a Madison scouts on. Check out their 1992 show!
What is your favorite thing to spin
flag
swing flag
rifle
or Sabre
by the way I love first and I'm so happy you make these videos because I would have never started guard without them I was so scared and you gave me the confidence so thank you soo much
Rifle! I love rifle so much!
I'm everything but rifle, my favorite is swing flag though
It took me awhile to figure out what a swing flag is... my school calls them hand flags
Rifle all the way
What brand of gloves do most schools recommend????
And btw GREAT JOB!!!!!!! :D
+Gilda Satler thanks lol and most schools use the Ever-Dri brand of gloves
+Demyx Tracer
:D thank you!!! I was just asking i'm going into 7th grade and i'm going to join color guard so i just wanted to ask you. ^-^ keep up the great work!!
+Gilda Satler thanks! You too! I'm thinking of posting a little something tomorrow for Valentine's Day! Be on the lookout!
Okay!!!! ^-^ I will!!!!
Cool stuff here. Where does all this come from?
If I could have any guard instructor, I'd want it to be the sexy guy in gray sweatpants 😍 I love your videos, thanks for the tips and videos 😊
+Mekko Gayton 😳 oh um. Thanks. I'm glad you like my tutorials.
What measurement is your sabre blade? I’m planning to get one and I’m not sure what size I should get.
Beginners typically start with a 36” but if you want the advanced blade I suggest a 39”
Ok I love all of your videos of course. But I need to comment on how there's an ad for FabLab in Fayetteville, AR on this video and our winterguard is planning a trip to Fayetteville this season to compete!
I love that!
Where can I get a saber and what brand? I checked Amazon but not many reviews on them so I don’t know which one is a good one.

Me chilling in my room looking at my broken toy lightsaber:
*sigh*
are you in guard at the moment and if so is it high school guard or an independent group?😄
+Monica Valdez I just finished with high school guard this week and I'm about to join an independent group
do you know what group yet?
+Monica Valdez Madison Scouts
When I’m doing these my Sabre twists in the air... how do I fix this?
Use the cupping shape for your hand when you toss
Also don’t flick your wrist on the release. Make sure your wrist is locked.
.-. I am a grade under saber but I like this :)
how far down is your tape from the tip?
+Bethany Watts about two fists worth
could you some dance please?
+joran smalls sure! I'd love to
Thank you.
I have a question for you. I’m
not new to guard this year b because of some joint issues i had to drop out and this is my first year getting back into it after my surgery. I’m on rifle for indoor but what i really want to do is sabre. However, my coaches play favorites and the sabre line is made up of the three favorites. (They’re good people the coaches just don’t really hold tryouts for anything). What should I do? I want to do sabre more than i want to do flag and rifle combined. Anything you think i should do?
Honestly that’s a difficult situation. I’d firstly tell the instructors point blank you’d like to spin sabre and see where it goes from there.
Nicholas Carter Okay thank you! I just wasn’t sure if I should or not. For this indoor season there were no tryouts they just placed and I wanted to tryout for sabre but i wasn’t given an option. I’ll ask for this coming outdoor season!
We should colab
O
My problem is that I use my elbow wall spinning
Tie your arm off with a scarf so you can’t peel it away from your body while spinning.
What size is the sabre?
+Ana Rodriguez 36"
Any good tips on keeping the blade from twisting when you catch it?
That depends. Is it twisting in the air or is it twisting right when you catch?
This is so hard since I don't have my gloves yet 😭
Anthony omg I hope you don't injure your fingers, you can do it though my friend had to go through a whole season without gloves last year
What the hell is this, I was serching for hema polish sabre guards, not this...Dance?...I dont even know hot to call it
what the hell is "hema polish sabre guards"
Lmao it’s color guard
Jrotc color guard is way better than this colorguard stuff
They are completely different things.
Just because you prefer one over the other does not make it better. I prefer Colorguard however that’s because it’s my passion. I won’t ever be passionate about JROTC because it holds no interest for me, but as important Colorguard is to me JROTC is important to someone else. They hold EQUAL status to one another. Neither is more or less important or better than the other.
