Tumblers and Gymnasts

Tumbling makes up a large part of the scoring system in cheerleading, making it a huge asset when trying out. If you can tumble, we absolutely want to see you at a tryout! What we give back to the tumblers out there is a sprung floor, crash mats, and devices to help you improve your level (or revive your old level) of tumbling. Tumblers also are generally coordinated, making them ideal candidates to learn stunting and basket tosses.

Ex-gymnasts, this is your place to come be part of a team, and meet some people who train like you did throughout gymnastics.

If you can't tumble, there is still a place for small flexible female athletes on the team. Often dancers, rhythmic gymnasts, non-competitive gymnasts, figure skaters, and some other athletes choose cheerleading for another chance to perform, and to train for a goal.

Stunting, basket tosses and pyramids all benefit from having small but strong and flexible cheerleaders. With relative strength, they are able to move their body in the air, and maintain a rigid posture which is important.

The girls on the team all benefit from each other, since every member has different strengths. You can find out how to run more efficiently, or how to lift weights. You can find out how to improve your flexibilty, or how to fly in the air, all from someone who has been in your position before.

The coed training environment is a unique experience, limited usually to pairs sports (tennis, badminton, figure skating), but is often one of the things most enjoyed by athletes in cheerleading.
