To help cover the cost of holding this Clinic there will be a
nominal £2 per person* charge however if you are an organisation
and have a number of members that would like to take part then
drop us a line giving details of numbers and we can look at doing
a group discount.

Clinic Information (supplied by Blue Devils)
Each clinic starts with an
introduction to our teachers and Blue Devils International Corps
members.
We then break out into sections: brass and woodwinds, guard,
percussion. The sessions are interactive, and attendees are
encouraged to bring an instrument of their choice and play along
with the Blue Devils International Corps members while learning
various technique and warm-up exercises.
The main focus of the clinic will be to introduce best-practices
for warm-up, technique development and strength. If time allows,
we will teach a short routine to perform as a culminating
activity. Brass and woodwinds it is usually a short chorale or
Blue Devil tune (Navel Corale/When A Man Loves A Woman), for percussion it is either a short cadence or a
fun "trade fours" performance and for guard it is
usually a short equipment and movement routine.
We also allow time for social interaction, autographs and photos
and friendship building.
