Have you ever had to do it? We do. That's the time signature in Mars. It gets confusing sometimes because you land on a different foot every measure. sweatdrop

No. We had to do 3/4 time for a part of the Jurrasic Park medley we did a couple years ago though. The key is to think of it in two-measure blocks, so it'd be a set of ten steps, not two sets of five, or a set of six, not two sets of three. That helps with the confusion a lot. ^^

There's a part in Poulan's show "Toro!" in the second movement where there's 5/4 and 6/4 time switching off after a 3/4 segment. It wasn't too challenging, because the move was 22 steps.

I never marched in 5/4. But last year in the one song we had to march 3/4 for sixteen measures. Then it switched to 4/4, 5/8, 4/4, 6/8, 12/8, 4/4, then back to 3/4. That was fun to march

I marched 5/4 when I played Mission: Impossible. If you just make sure to count, you'll be fine.

As someone else already mentioned, if you think of it in two bar phrases, it works out well. So for 4 measures in 5/4, think of them as two measures of 10/4.
