[@biancatamayo8496]

i found that placing two bobby pins underneath the pony tail going downward helps lift my pony tail higher for an extra boost

Thank you!

[@firebird0x033]

Ooooh my goodness guys! I had cheer tryouts today.. now lemme tell ya... I am currently in the 8th grade and made it for the VARSITY POMS team at my high school (for freshman year)!! I am so stoked!!! I have watched millions of cheer videos.. probably unhealthy how many I’ve watched actually 😂 but I made it. I also have had NO previous cheer experience. At all. I didn’t even know how to do a toe touch for Pete’s sake! I did however go to many clinics and tried my absolute hardest. I kind of biffed it on my double turn today... but I had a total of four callbacks 😨 andddd... I made it! I don’t really know what I did to be honest, just kinda smiled and made my movements confident and sharp. I LOVE YALL! Even though I don’t know anyone.... meep.... haha believe in yourself!!! And smile!!!! 😀😀😀😄😄

[@johnnyboy3222]

That is literally what happened to me a week ago!

[@violettokarz4536]

I AM SO PROUD OF YOU! Congratulations

[@BB-zi6zo]

I want to do cheer but I’m too scared because I can’t even do a cartwheel 🥲 I hate myself

[@Yeosangtiny5289]

@@BB-zi6zo Hey, my sister is a cheerleader so i know some tips. So, you don't need to know how to do flips! alot of people dont know how to, but ofc try your best to strech your legs. It's very important to stretch since you can break sum.

[@nessard]

@@BB-zi6zo you don’t have to know how to do flips to be in cheer!

[@mackenziewhite9135]

Can you make a whole video on how to improve jumps😆 my coach put me in the front and I am really bad at them😬

[@Amaiyaaa_xo]

Mackenzie White sameee

[@natalyarasske803]

My favorite tip I have ever gotten on my toe touches is from this video. I watched so many videos and every time I had the star jump effect. Teammates and coaches have told me to rotate my hips but it came very unnaturally for me. The idea of "sitting" in your jump help my hips relax enough to rotate so I can complete a cleaner and all around better toe touch. Thank you so much!!! Love your channel!

[@AlyssaRevecho]

Glad I can help you!!!😊😊

[@graceo2846]

I have so much trouble with this too!!!

[@laurenhaygood1393]

I can't get my hips to rotate in my toe touch(or get my knees facing up) could you please give me a tip or do a video on how to correct toe touches ?

[@rileywright8399]

YES PLEASE!!!

[@nitakivimaki3412]

lauren haygood Try to get your knees facing more to the back like if you have a wall or something behind you it really helps getting your knees to face up.

[@laurenhaygood1393]

Nita Kivimäki thanks!!

[@hannahb7536]

lauren haygood to get your knees to face up you need to be stretching. Because when your limber (flexible) it makes toe touches easier. So do middle splits about 5 times a day basically

[@tidepods7753]

lauren haygood start in a pile with ur knees up and get the toe touch position going from the pike

[@lollyleah4you106]

i just had cheer tryouts today and im in pain is there any tips besides icy hot for soreness for your entire body

[@lollyleah4you106]

Thank you so much love your videos 😀😀

[@BStop22]

+Freeman Forever I take hot baths too. Also, my chiropractor had told me a while back for my all over, cheer pain to get lavender epsom salts and put it into the hot bath. Make sure you put a decent amount into the water and make sure it dissolves completely before getting in. (You don't want to sit on salt rocks, ouch.) It really works to sooth your muscles. When you get out of the bath you want to put actual ice, not just icy hot, on your sore spots in 15 minute on-off intervals. It numbs/soothes the muscles. As well as, take down any inflammation. Hope this helps!!

[@oliviathomas2339]

Icy hot is REALLY helpful but hot baths/ showers are really good too. Just relax and try not to get a lot of rest :)

[@BStop22]

try not to get a lot of rest? I think you have that part backwards. LOL

[@oliviadahlberg1137]

If you take baths in epson salt it helps relax your body :)

[@juliajibson2835]

For the shoe hack you could also put dryer sheets in your cheer shoes or any shoes to make them smell better Bc dryer sheets work really good.

[@krystal3434lol]

Can you do a how to get your middle splits? I can't seem to get it 😕 your videos are awesome girl

[@aliciagamer2682]

Some people are just not physically able to get it because of how your hips are shaped. Can't get mine either

[@akyariegle1112]

Tips put on stretchy pants and socks go to a carpet area now stretch for ten minutes then stand up and start sliding into it over and over you could also go into a straddle position and slowly push your legs back into your split I’d recommend sitting in your staddle as far as you can stretch it for a while it really helps

I love the makeup you have in the intro

[@gali.fernnn]

[@serenidycrouch2326]

Since I've started cheer, I have realized a few things aka this is going to be a rant. Like I show always straighten my hair before any sort of performance (games, competition, ect.). It just makes doing my hair a lot easier. Hairspray is my best friend (I'm pretty sure it's every cheerleader/dancer's best friend). Competition week/weeks are the worse. I like running 5 or more laps for a warm up, more than I like doing 3 sets of jumping jacks. Always bring money for game days and competitions. Doing more than 3 or 4 stair laps is horrible. Everyone better be running all their laps, or Imma beat someone. If the coach is talking you're not, cause I'm not as fit as you little 7th graders, I dont want to run 5 more laps around a hot gym. I never just an off season, besides May, then it's back to cheer in June. If you quit cheer, no matter what the reason, dont be rude to the girls (or boys) on the team, because the coach will find out, also it's not nice. Also if you quit cheer (or any sport really) return the uniform and tell the coach. If you are a flyer, please hold your weight up, squeeze your penny, control your butt, and dont balance yourself, it just makes it 10 time more easier to keep you in the air. I hate cheering on the side lines. If you start a cheer, say it very loud and proud. Always do your motions right. If you are injured tell your coach, especially if it happens at cheer. Always keep your tongue in your mouth. You will never seem to have time to do homework. I could go on forever, but I shall not.

[@btscrazyloverarmyjungkooki4425]

I am trying out for cheer on June and I’ve never done it before, and I’m nervous because I’m still working on my back handspring and Ariel and I don’t know if they will bring me to the team🥺 but I’m going to keeps trying!😊 if you can give me more tips on jumps or even tumbling plzzz hmu! Thxxx💗

[@emilybarrios276]

BtscrazyloverarmyJUNGKOOKismine Wilkes don’t be nervous! I tried out out for cheer in March and I made it in! I don’t have any experience at all so I made sure to seem really happy and confident in what I was doing even though I was confused about everything. And if you mess up during your audition don’t show it! Always keep a smile on your face and have fun! Btw for cheer they make us volunteer for stuff and i volunteered at the rose bowl and I got to watch both of the bts shows haha #army

Hey! How old were you when you started cheer? I'm thinking of starting cheerleading but I'm afraid I'm too old to start now. I have a lot of flexibility skills and I can do the basic gymnastics skills as I was a gymnast when I was younger but only for a year. What should I do? It would be very helpful if you or anyone could reply. Thanks XoXo.

[@yasminmariah3411]

u are never too old to start!! if u really have a passion for it then do it. u would also be super helpful for tumbling because u used to do gymnastics &’ ur very flexible.

[@masynmills9844]

I use hairspray to stiffen up my cheer bows just because I cheer for high school. All that you do is you spray the bow itself then put it in your hair then straighten it out then after that spray your hair and the bow mostly the back of it now then after it’s to your needs and looks (mostly just straight and not crushed up looking) then spray all of your hair 🙂🙂

[@ayannajanaeee]

What if I have no experience at All? Like I literally can’t even dance. What should I do to practice. My tryouts are in four months.

[@kateschulte5357]

Little Fun Things This is my first year in cheer and I’m loving it. I think you should stretch a lot, especially for your toe touch. Another thing to put into thought is to evaluate your size. If your shorter and thin, you’ll most likely be the flyer (like me). If you are sturdier/stronger and pretty much any height, you’ll most likely be a side base/main base. Finally, if you’re taller/ stronger you’ll most likely be a back base/back spot, and/or a main base. After you find out what you think you’ll be, you can look up KZbin videos about what each position does. Also, just saying physically active and eating/drinking healthy. I hope everything goes well!!!
