Cheerleaders or Dancers???

Question

I've been a cheerleader since I was 5. I've never done allstars though, and I wondering what I can do to be able to memorize routines alot faster. It takes me forever to memorize a rountine (dance), but once I have it it's flawless. The only problem is that I just don't have time , I have to have the routine done quickly. I'm cheering at my highschool this coming year (not competition) and at camp it took me forever to get everything down! So heres my question: What can I do to catch on extremly quickly to dacne routines/ long cheers? And next year I will be trying out for JV which does compete so can you please give me some tips for memorizing HS competitive routines and allstar routines? Thanks.

Answer 1

Dancers beacause cheerleaders are full  of themselves

Answer 2

I think it's one of those things that you were either born with it, or you weren't. But practicing would really help! You just have to keep running it through, even if it's just in your head.

Answer 3

i think the best thing to do when at camp is to learn the routine so you kind of know it, don't worry about perfecting it there, then when you get home after camp, practice it over and over.

Answer 4

cheerledin allstar is alot funner then school.

i would do it if i were you

Answer 5

when they start teaching you something look at the moves carefully and watch everything they do..

if they are going to teach you a dance and they are going to do it once full out then watch them and get an idea of what you will be doing so you kind of now what to do when they teach it.

cheers also...when they are teaching it or doing it full out watch them...and do exactly what they do...go through it in your head a couple of times and then do it...as long as you know the motions and you come back the next day knowing what you learned the day before...then its alright

good luck hun!!
