Emanon Winterguard Based in Toms River, New Jersey, our organization offers young adults – ages 15 to 23 – a unique, valuable marching arts experience. Founded on the principle that a highly competitive program can achieve great success without sacrificing education or innovation, Emanon has been inspiring and nurturing passionate winterguard performers since 2000.

Our Program Prioritizes: 

Harnessing Potential – We want each individual in our organization to grow, take on new challenges, and walk away from each season having exceeded their own expectations.

Training Technique – We know how integral a comprehensive education in movement and equipment mechanics is to the ability of a performer to succeed, so we prioritize technical blocks all season long. 

Entertainment & Innovation – We strive to always put out memorable, exciting, and interesting productions – shows that members love to perform and audiences want to watch over and over again. Our creative team is encouraged to explore their out of the box ideas.

Positive Community Impact – We want our organization to be a pillar of support, kindness, and positivity – not just for those within our ranks, but for anyone who may cross our paths. We hold every person involved with Emanon to a high standard of such behavior. 

The “FamELE”: 

We are, above all else, built to be a home for passionate people who love what they do and who they do it with. We value everyone who walks through our doors as a human being first and foremost – and then watch as they thrive as a result.

Currently Emanon:
