Rob Stein is the ultimate music mindset coach, whose multiple streams of experience can transform your life, on and off the field. Rob is a multi-business owning entrepreneur, owning companies in Marching Band Music Composition and Arranging, Real Estate, Mindset and Business Coaching, and is a professional natural bodybuilder. As the owner of Standing 'O' Marching, Rob is an experienced writer, designer, adjudicator, educator, and performer. Over 400 marching bands and drum corps across 40 states have used Rob’s original compositions and arrangements, including The Baltimore’s Marching Ravens, the largest music organization associated with the NFL. Rob’s drum corps experience is extensive in both DCI and DCA. As a marching member, Rob marched a total of eight years in DCI, including two years with the Concord Blue Devils on upper lead trumpet (’05-’06), after six years with the Jersey Surf as a soprano soloist and drum major (’99-’04). Rob has had the honor of writing for The Pioneer Drum and Bugle Corps, The Hawthorne Caballeros, The Skyliners, and Carolina Gold, who won the 2012 A Class DCA World Championships using Rob’s arrangements. As an instructor, Rob has been on staff with The Blue Devils B, The Cadets, The Jersey Surf, The Bushwackers, The Caballeros, and numerous marching bands within Pennsylvania and New Jersey, in addition to being a live clinician with hundreds of his bands all over the country.
"Season to season, Carolina Crown is constantly striving to not only achieve higher levels of excellence on the field, but also improve and enhance the overall drum corps experience that we offer our members,” said Sean McElroy, Instructional Staff Coordinator with Carolina Crown. The addition of Rob Stein to our staff is a crucial step in our plan to remain at the top of the activity in both regards.”
Rob Stein, had the following to say about joining the team:
Drum corps is a sport, one of the most mentally and physically demanding out there. Today’s members are athletes of the highest level, and the expectations of the modern performer are higher than ever. In combination with the mental and physical demands of the show itself, members bring their technology and life with them on tour, are expected to balance family, school, and the pressures of becoming independent, high functioning members of society who will go out into the world after aging out to lead this country. When you analyze high performers in any industry, whether Olympic athletes, CEO's of Fortune 500 Companies, or Entrepreneurs, there is a common thread - all high performers have coaches. Specifically, coaches that work on mindset, personal development, and breaking into new levels of success by understanding the mindset necessary to do so. As Carolina Crown is one of the highest performing ensembles in the world, and is on a mission "To Develop Lifelong Excellence in Young People," it is a deep honor and absolutely thrilling to be part of the first drum corps in history to create this full time position for the betterment of its members.
