How to be a cheerleader?

Question

I want to start out being a cheerleader. I have

no experience but like what can you do to become one?

Like stretching, I've done years of dance, I'm loud, and I pick

up dance steps fast. So yeah..what else?

Answer 1

As opposed to what the previous answerer siad, your dancing abilities will definitely comein handy. They will help you memorize your cheers a lot better because you have become accustomed to learning choreography, which is basically what cheering is, besides actually cheering, "Go team!". Really all you need to become one is to audition. Compose a routine of some sort, and you should make it no problem, especially if you utilize your dancing abilities.

Answer 2

you need to work on motions... not DANCER motions.. you need to be sharp.. no bent wrists in motions and just learning what each motion is called would be good.... another thing is jumps.. you need to learn how to do connecting jumps and the proper technique to the jumps. and last but def. not least... take tumbling classes!!! it used to not be big in cheerleading... but the best of the best can do almost everything that the olympic gymnasts can do!!! so def. enroll in a tumbling class! also you can check out you tube... search for teams like:   1. world cup shooting stars 2008 worlds     2.  top gun allstars 2008 worlds        3. cheer athletics 2008 worlds

these teams will give you a clue to whats going on in the cheer world today... it may not be as easy as you may think!!! check it out!!!
