Cheer try-outs are in two/three weeks!!


Question Posted Tuesday March 27 2012, 8:29 pm

My school will be having cheer workshops april 10-13 tryout day is april 16th this is a new school that im attending they are very school spirited and im scared out of my mind to try out. I believe i have the possibility of making it i used to dance so i pick up choreo quickly i have decent kicks already working on making them better. But my toe touches arent that high and they just don't seem to improve. because of that im a bit discouraged. what would help me be prepared for tryouts?

Dear Questioner,
Im previously a cheer coach so I hope my anser is of use to you.
It will take some hard work, some elbow grease as I like to say. ESPECAILLY as you only have two weeks left. You may want to start stretching etc a bit beforehand say a month or too. It will keep you in good stead if you condition regularly.

But back to matters,

to get your toe toueches higher I recommend V sits, dorsal raises, scissor kicks, and leg raises/kicks should be on your list. Also if you have ankle weights i would recommend doing about 5 leg raises and V sits with them on, but not too many or your'll seriously hurt yourself.

Apart from that its box splits and normal cardio im afriad.

Also to put your mind at rest, as a cheer coach with regards to jumps, I wouldnt just look at your end result, I would be looking at your demonstation on flexibility in warm up etc. so dont worry! just go there and wear your biggest smile! the worst they can do is say try next year.

jusy turn up to the workshops and be confident :)

Good luck future cheerleader, feel free to inbox me any other cheer Qs
