http://TwirlPlanet.com This video teaches twirlers how to throw a baton with proper technique. A thumb toss is one of the baton twirling basics that is not very difficult to learn. When you learn how to toss a baton correctly, you gain wonderful control and accuracy of both small flips and high, spectacular aerials. This video is for baton twirlers, as well as staff spinners and jugglers who are interested in creating unique tricks and series. The tutorial includes demonstration with both a staff and a juggling club. Staff spinning tricks and techniques are similar to twirling and this basic release is a great way to add variety to your repertoire.

Twirling a baton can be fun for all ages and we look forward to bringing you more baton twirling videos.
