Director and Teachers


Jacinda Miller is excited to have your child enrolled in baton twirling classes. I have always said that I would not be who I am without baton twirling. ---I learned more than how to twirl a baton; I learned public speaking skills, interviewing skills, confidence, poise, and so much more! I was lucky enough to have parents that really supported my twirling –so thanks mom and dad! The support of my entire family helped me in winning the Illinois State Solo Championship, Midwest Modeling Championship, and the Governor’s Hostess for the Illinois State Fair. After my competitive career came to a close I took an adventure to the University of Arizona and was a member of the twirling team. Eventually I was selected as the Captain of the Twirling Team. Now my focus is on teaching children this great sport! In 2002, I began the Minnesota Magic Competitive Teams. Our twirlers are improving every day and you should look for them to perform around your community!

Guest Instructor:

Jolina Pettice has been involved in the twirling world since she was born. Jolina’s natural ability for twirling led her to win many twirling awards. Jolina has been an avid supporter of twirling both in Minnesota and Illinois. She has also played an integral role in directing the Miss Majorette of Minnesota competitions and various other competitions. Jolina loves teaching our future competitive team members!

Student Teachers:

Our sport has continued for generations because young twirlers develop a passion for teaching new twirlers! Jacinda selects her very best twirlers to student teach. First the student joins Jacinda to learn the curriculum and classroom management. After developing a thorough knowledge, the student teacher will begin to teach classes by her/himself. Our goal in every class is to help those twirlers that love baton develop their skills so that they may join our competitive and performance teams.

Our current student teachers are Amy and Haley.

Amy began twirling in Jacinda's first summer class in 2002. You can tell that Amy loves baton because she is always smiling! Amy has helped in Jacinda's beginner classes for over a year and is getting ready to have her own classes! One of Amy's favorite events is modeling and she continues to do well at competitions. Also, Amy is Captain of the Minnesota Magic competitive teams.

Haley, a team captain, also began in Jacinda's first summer class. Haley's specialty is spinning. Haley can toss her baton and spin like a top underneath those tosses! Haley has an energetic personality and is a star member of the Minnesota Magic Twirling Teams.
