i NEED to know cheerleading & gymnastics
ok...so i tried out for my cheerleading squad at my school last year ,and i didn't make it=[ i think the reason i didnt was because i couldn't do any gymnastics. im good at the cheers and jumps_ i just can't do any gymastics, i can't even do a cartwheel!!(i know pathetic right?) so.. ive been looking online for private gymnastics lessons, but i cant find any on my area(i live in PA) and even the ones that ARE in PA, are in philli, which isnt excatly the closets location, so i was wondering if anyone knows a gymnastics/cheer coaching place with private lessons (for beginners) around the montgomery.king of prussia area, the requiriments to make the squad are a back hand spring and a running back hand-spring, but if you know more things (such as roundoffs,cartwheels etc.) it helps your chances by alot!!! the tryouts are held in june,, so that means Ill have plenty of time to learn, but if you can't find a private lesson place, then can your just give me some tips on how to do a back-handspring,roundofff,and cartwheels, but if you are giving advice about how to do the stunts, i prefer it be by a cheerleader or a gymnastics or cheerleading coach<(im conserned about getting injured) im sorry that this is so long and thank you for taking the time to read this whole thing. i REALLY want to make the cheerleading squad so please help
your advice is very appreciated!

I actually think that you will benefit more from small group lessons because you can watch other people and learn what to do and what not to do.
As for cartwheels, just practice and try to get your feet over your head.
I did gymnastics for 7 years, so aske me if you have any more questions.

Well, the easiest way to find a private lesson gym, use the phone book, im sure they have bunches of names and listings. I am a cheerleader and did gymnastics for 5 years. For cartwheels, roundoffs, and backhandsprings, you need a mat, or a very squishy surface. Basically all you do, squat down, halfway down to the surface, put you hands fully up, coverng your ears, and then jump bakwards makingsure the palms of your hand are face up. This particular gymnastics move, isnt that diffucult, but I would deffinelty look into having a coach help you with this, if you are concered about getting injured, then deffinetly get help the first few times doing this. If you start now, you should be all set for when the tryouts come in June. Good Luck && I hope I helped a bit. -emily
