hi! I'm in grade10 and i'm starting to go to a new school and i've wanted to cheer for a while but i got pulled out of school until now. i don't think its the season for much sports but id like to know what to do in advance
 
Hello! it is never too late to start cheer. Have you ever cheered before? Do you want to do competition cheer or just school cheer?
I haven't cheered before but I can dance, I know it isn't the same but I think it at least gives me some kinda similar experience. I was thinking of doing school cheer :)
 
If you have dance experience that can absolutely be valuable to cheer. I would start by maybe looking up some uca videos on youtube of cheer dances. Cheer dances can be different then actual dancing. Sharper, more precise moves and things like that. Also look up how to do toe touch and herkie jumps. Maybe see if any cheer gyms in the area offer clinics so you can get some training before your school season starts. What state are you located? Maybe I can give some recommendations?

Hey there! This is an excellent time of year to learn cheerleading basics so that you can prep for school tryouts in the fall. I suggest looking up videos online to learn basic cheer jumps and motions. You could even learn a few cheers and chants and practice performing them. I recommend looking for cheer camps in your area. Oftentimes, schools or local gyms/rec centers will hold summer cheer camps. There, they’ll go over cheerleading basics and teach you new chants and routines. Good luck!
