They made it through parade season, they made it through the tough practices, they made it through the performances. Who am I referring to? I am talking about the LOVELY ladies of North Florida Twirling Academy. From the first day of their practice the coaches only wanted what was best for the young ladies. After all they made their coaches proud and they made it to competition season.
This month is the month the ladies will participate in competition. During competition the girls must give their all.
What they young ladies have learned in practice will roll over to competition. The young ladies that qualify for the competition categories will have to perform in front of a judge, and show off their talents. The categories the ladies can partake in range from solos to duets. They are judged off some of the following, how well they twirl, how their techniques, their smile and many more categories. After showing off their talents the judge will place them from highest to lowest.
They will all the tools not only from practice but, from the critiques from the judges. The young ladies will also receive bragging rights. They have to compete against 7 to 13 other teams, if they come out on top, they have a lot to brag about. Once competition is over they can not lose focus. They have to prepare for their end of the year recital, which is in June.

The GOAT.
I often get asked who is your favorite baton twirler? Or Who is your favorite competition team? Or who is the GOAT? I normally do not have an answer but, I recently found my answer. I followed this amazing twirler on Instagram and I overly lover her work. She has a unique style of twirling, the things she post is very entertaining and eye catching and her accomplishments matches as to why she is the GOAT in my eyes. This Amazing twirler goes by the name of Trina.
Her Name is Trina Catterson, from New York. She is currently a junior at a performing arts high school where she is majoring in dance. She has been twirling for 12 consecutive years, her current coach name is Kathy Forsythe. Miss Catterson has been on 2 USA teams and in 2012 she won a bronze medal with her partners. In 2014 Miss Catterson placed 7th place as an individual in a Junior freestyle competition. Miss Catterson also has 39 national titles. Her inspiration for twirling came from her mother because her mother also twirled at a young age.
Miss Catterson is a significant part of this blog because of all of her accomplishments. Although I have not twirled a baton in the last year, I believe that following her and watched her videos would get me back into the studio. She also inspires me to continue what I have started while i was twirling. I believe that I can even start my own twirling company in the future. Watching Miss Cattertson's videos and knowing her accomplishments make her the GOAT.

My name is Raaliyah K Lynch. I am 18 years old and I attend South Carolina State University. I am from Jacksonville, FL and I have been twirling baton since i was 12 years old.
My blog will grab your attention by the videos that I will upload on showing some of the techniques to twirling a baton. I will also show some cool tricks that will keep you entertained.
I chose this name and style because it is very catchy. My middle name starts with a "K" so i decided to use my middle initial. I chose this style because of the interest I have for it.
