for those who have trouble getting higher: remember, move your legs, don’t apply all the pressure in your hips. KEEP YOUR CHEST UP!!

lol i did cheerleading i got my toe touch in three day you'll get it just keep trying

[@xchocofairy608]

Jump off your toes, heels up then your toes. It helps along with bended knees.

[@lauriehilton6008]

Try using kinetic bands, they're made especially for cheerleaders.

[@selenalopez2057]

Morgan Davidson try stretching first splits both sides then get into a straddle and reach over onto both sides what helped me get mine was every night i set a timer for five minutes and i stretch my legs onto a flat wall doing a middle split and reaching forward with my arms this will create your hips to be more flexible if it burns its working do this and you’ll get it in no time:) if i could i would show pics of my one month progress but keep trying:)

Team Lijah that's exactly how my Cheerios learn. They are between 5-12 years old so if they can learn it this way anyone can.

[@ariesworld6286]

Team Lijah there is truly no way to explain it besides just jump and spend you leg and land it. You can’t really put it into detail

[@Picklejam08]

You’re absolutely right.

@@marianaraya8404 honestly just remember to smile, have a good attitude, and confidence because I know even if youre not that good at the cheers themself if they like your attitude they'll take you but you have a good amount of time before your auditions so I recommend practicing a lot go over those cheer movements make sure you stay tight and the movements are swift and go over those cheer jumps because those are the most challenging also when you're doing cheer you want to say the cheer from your diaphragm not your throat

I wanna tryout for cheer but these tips aren't very clear, and helpful but nice video!

[@elianna_ecc]

Yeah, I'd recommend trying out a toe touch on a trampoline first. You don't want to really focus on touching your toes, just focus on bringing your legs into a straddle in midair. The straddle position would be where you sit on the ground and spread your legs as wide as you can without lifting them off the ground. You'll need to do this in midair while jumping.

[@KyusuGaming2911]

That did not help what so ever

[@baileyurmom341]

You need to point your toes when in the air, roll your legs in front of you before going to the side.

[@judith3455]

Today I had my cheer tryouts. We just learned a dance and on Wednesday we have to perform it. At the end we have to do some type of jump.

[@Spring-Tumbling1]

every cheer team has different ways to start their toe touch for example the Stingrays ( a competitive cheer team ) starts with a in a clap then their hands out in front of them then they bring it to a low rocket into the T. If your trying out for a cheer team I ( a Competitive cheerleader) would recommend a classic start which would look like hands in a clap on one while you squat with your knees together then bring you hands up by your temple on two almost like a touch down but with your hands together. After that you just bring your hands straight down into the same squatting position one thing to consider is absolutly NEVER cross your hands in the low rocket the people in the video tell you to but it is not good and it makes you toe touch lookk pretty messy when your are preforming. A few tips are to streach every night Always warmup before doing a toe touch keep your chest up it will help you to bring yoi legs up higher and watch toe touch strenthing workouts it will help alot I recommend Anna Mcnulty. Good luck to every one ❤

Thx❤❤

[@lizaleonhart6680]

It's been 10 years since this was posted, but in case someone still watches this, any tips for someone who is not flexible, cannot jump high, or anything that does not make you a physically healthy person 😭 There are long term solutions (?) like exercising, eating food, etc. Looking for short-terms. Or maybe inspirations like maybe someone of you are like the present me but can now do these jumps and stunts with training?

[@queenielouweekly3160]

Try finding a gym with a professional trampoline, the extra height will help

[@Dinoattack]

You can have a verry good looking toe touch without being super flexible. Toe touches are kinda an illusion if you keep ur chest up And roll your toes/hips back towards the wall behind you it will look higher I know people who can’t do the splits but have hyper extended toe touches

[@0x0-b6h]

This isn’t a normal setup for a jump. Most jumps you squat a little and do a clap with your elbows touching, put your hands over your head still in the clap, squat again and bring your hands down at an angle in front of you, circle your ARMS around (not in a clap anymore) and do your jump!
