Hi i just turned 13 and i'm just starting cheerleading this year. Alot of my friends are cheerleaders since they were like 6 and I know they are really good and into it. Well I want to know how I can suprise them by showing them even though i'm new I can be good. Cause i'm shy and i'm jsut starting this year.Any tips? Also, do you think anyone will make me feel uncomfortable cause i'm new. Cause I do feel kind of uncomfortable that i'm just starting and everyone else has been doing it for years. they will proably think "Oh that girl isn't even passionate about it I bet she's just trying it out."

It was stressful at times, but it really became my passion. The tips I'll give would be to smile, be confident, if there's anything you have to practice, PRACTICE. And overall, just let go. One more thing: when you're making movements, be stiff. Also, you may have to get used to the girls on the squad, but by the middle of the year, you should be warming up to them. Good Luck!!

secretcrushx3 answered Thursday August 17 2006, 9:37 pm: it's normal to be nervous about it but don't worry so much about it. There could be someone else who is just starting on the squad too and even if there isn't then the girls should be nice enough to let you join and become your friend and try and help you. If you're having trouble with something then someone should show you what to do. As far as getting ready for it just try and stretch so you get flexable and work on your jumps and herkies. Practice in front of the mirror a few cheers and always remember to smile. Good luck. [ secretcrushx3's advice column | Ask secretcrushx3 A Question ]
