A Company Built on Success & Driven by Excellence

Countermotion was formed in 2004 by Michael Thomas and Stephen Hendricks as strictly a drill design business. In the first year, the designers co-authored 2 shows, both receiving top caption placement in every marching band contest that they competed in. In the following year, through simple word of mouth, 9 new band programs were contracted. All 9 saw drastic improvements in the overall quality of their marching band show designs. From these humble beginnings, and through extremely high quality designing and service, Countermotion has experienced exponential growth. Since that time, the design team of Countermotion has produced literally 100s of successful fall and winter productions.

Today, Countermotion boasts some of the activity’s strongest emerging designers as well as represents some of the most well-known and respected marching band, indoor percussion and winter guard programs in the country. From high schools and universities to drum corps and winter ensembles, our designers have taught, written for, and performed with some of the most prestigious ensembles in the world.

Come and join the success that is Countermotion. We have improved the overall show quality of every single program we have written for. What other designers do you know who can make a statement like that?
