Funny Marching band training story below:

I've been teaching my sister, , how to march. She knows 8 to 5 forward and backward as well as Attention, Band at the Ready, the Pete Drill, Crossover, Band Horns up and down, Flanking, and full body directional changes in place. She still has a ways to go, but she's definitely making progress.

Earlier today, she was practicing 8 to 5 forward (8 to 5 is standard step size for marching) and she was doing perfectly for the first few yardlines. I was going to have her stop on the last one, but when I called it, she stopped on count 7 after doing what seemed to be a 6 to 5, which is a larger step size, and on count 8, when she was supposed to stop, she said "Oh no!" perfectly in time with the tempo. Typically, she would have stopped on her right foot and said "One! Two!" and on 2, she would be bringing the left foot in, but she stood in place and said "Oh No!" instead. It was awesome! lol!!!!!

I need to get back to this later...
