[nabs-l] Marching Band

[johnnie Jean duran]

Dear NABS Members,
For 3 years, I've always had a passion for the clarinet. I was first
clarinet player in my middle school's concert band, and now that I am
in high school, I am taking on marching band.
Marching band was wonderful, intense but amazing, that is until we
started marching. I was doing ok with marching forward, but now, I am
doing the slide steps. These are when your torso and face are facing
one way while you're marching the other way. I am now continuously
drifting away, and I have no control over it.
My section leader was amazing at first, she helped me a lot, and now
she is not willing to work with me as much at all.
Does anyone have any ideas? My TVI suggested a teather, but my section
leader refuses to use it. I'm stuck, and am having thoughts of
quitting.
Please help!
JJ
