Xpression
: The Color Guards of Unik Star
Xpression
is the color guard section of Unik Star.
Gathering about 10 members, this section
performs choregraphic shows every year
mixing flag, rifle, sabre and dance.
Xpression comes to life in 2005 while
competing for the first time in the
winterguard circuit.
Indeed, our members have been partipating
in french and european competitions
for serveral years in this discipline
with improving scores. The 2006 season
was important to Xpression because of
the promotion in the above class (going
from the «
Prep Class » to the « A Class » of the
CGN circuit in the Netherlands) with
an excellent score of 89,1 pts. Another
step for Xpression for the 2008 season.
Indeed, the staff calls on external
contributors to grow and give a new
impulsion. This task is given to
Ilona Hamstra from the Netherlands ;
and for the technical part, Xpression
welcomes Norman F King, an american
who teaches in high schools in the east
of the United States. That's how the
color guards get a promotion at their
first CGN contest in 2008 in Waalwijk
(NL) with a score of 58,7 points and
go from the AA-Class to the A-Class;
moreover, Xpression finishes the circuit
with a score of 65.1 points. The members
of this section will celebrate their
5th year in winterguard in 2009 !!!
