As a cheerleader I'm beyond SHOCKED at the skills Michelle was able to do in a bit over a week. Most cheerleaders practice for a decade before doing these stunts. It definitely helps a ton to have expert bases under you to learn, but still, this is extremely impressive.

You learned and improved so much in what was probably a total of 2 weeks and that is TRULY amazing!

You always show us that anything can be achieved with maximum efforts and that is priceless.

[@ayameisastar]

She did an amazing job for 10 days. If she couldn't tumble or fly before, that's amazing progress. But as a former college cheerleader and co-captain of my high school cheer team, her flexibility and tumbling wasn't nearly where it needed to be for her to be even considered. She really shouldn't have made it past day 1. But her energy was really good and she's obviously very physically fit. She would make most high school teams I know of and they would feel confident in being able to train her up with more tumbling and flying skills. Unfortunately college teams generally expect you to show up fully trained with the skills they expect and need.

23:28 is the essence of cheer. Cheer is hard its just like gymnastics or the circus, you need to impress make it look easy and smile through it all. You may be the best person on the team but right before you get on that mat you have some type of overwhelming feeling whether it's fear anticipation or pure excitement. Even more so cause you only have one chance. Once you're done and you ace that performance or competition you feel proud you feel powerful. That nervousness or fear didnt effect you and you showed everyone how badass you are! You trained hard for it and you can finally say that the work was worth it, and that feeling of accomplishment and moment of pride that is cheer.

Those are about endurance, a passive trait you can build over time, tumbling is an actual skill. To get to the level to actually compete you need to be not only extremely talented at learning but also doing it for a minimum of at least 3 years every single day because most of the top cheerleaders start from childhood so they easily have 6-10 years on you

@@yoface938 That's just straight up wrong. Just like you can get better at endurance by training, you get better at tumbling by practice.

Depending on learning speed, and motivation you could definitely become really skilled at tumbling in 4-6 months.

[@sydneypeck2488]

Personally, fear of failure is always what has driven me. In high school I was a very good 800m runner, I even had an almost perfect year where I got 1st place in almost every race I did. The thing with the 800m though is that it's painful, literally sprinting for half a mile is the most painful thing that I have ever done. When I was going into the final 200-300 meters and all that I wanted to do was slow down so that I would stop hurting, I always thought about how much I wanted to win, but also how much I was afraid to lose. Saying that I didn't deserve my success because I used my fear as my motivation is honestly really disheartening and I don't think that it's a very good message. Fear is a big part of what drives us and there is a big difference between people who are afraid to fail so they don't try and people who are afraid to fail so they work harder than everyone else to make sure that they succeed.

As a former cheerleader of 8 years, you did fantastic!! I literally cried from how inspirational this was.

[@raisingswayneys]

When she NAILED those stunts for auditions day 3, I wanted to run up to her and scream and hug her in excitement!!!! She DID IT!! Her calling should be cheerleading. She’s so talented!!

[@ΧριστιναΓεωργιου-ξ5μ]

Actually i really admire you and yes as your husband mentioned you are so ASTONISHING! You fight so hard to live a full life and inspire people to get out of their comfort zones and try things they always wanted or dreamed and overcome their fear. You really prove that the only limits are ourselves and as humans we are incappable of so many things if we trust and believe in us. Thank you!!!

This was the cutest thing ever. I criedddd. I love how her partner supported her through the whole thing! Such a great guy.

it’s so satisfying watching people realise how incredible and determined michelle is like at 15:34 and 21:50

[@Toolmamon]

I really loved how the coaches graded her on a different scale (obviously) or else she would of not made the cut from day one. Not because she is bad but because she went to tryout against athletes that have been doing this their whole lives since they were kids. She had to learn a brand new skill in a couple of minutes, hours, and days! Kudos to the coaches that graded her fairly according to what she did and kudos to Michelle for kicking ass at such a competitive sport. Congrats again Michelle!

[@kaitdid1992]

I'm just now finding your channel and have been binging your videos. I feel like a proud mom and I cry every single time you nail these challenges! You are an inspiration and I am incredibly proud of what you do.

Michelle is always impressive, but this one really made me amazed, she did everything so well, for it being out of her wheelhouse and not something she normally does. She learned and executed really well. This was genuinely a fantastic episode, really enjoyed watching~

@@alexnndderAlong with what has been said, from what I understand, it looks like this coach is the one who was brought in to help revitalize the program after the old coach was removed due to the scandal.

The determination, commitment, ability to adapt and be coached were what made you so great at this. You don't have the years of experience those actually trying out had so obviously didn't have the skills, but watching you commit and continue to grow in such a short time period demonstrates how great of a cheerleader you really were in this video. I think this might be the vid of yours I'm most impressed by!

[@socialanxiety9153]

Honestly miss girl was SO inspiring this episode! She trained for 10 days and managed to do ALL of that! The fact that she exuded such confidence in herself really put the cheer in cheerleading and that’s so beautiful to watch. I enjoyed this episode so much, and you have inspired me!

This is so impressive and as a former cheerleader I was in awe of your skills having never done this before.

I was rooting for you and really think you would make an awesome cheerleader ❤️.

[@camilledelorme3314]

I was not expecting to get so emotional watching this video. I've had this dream of cheering since I was 4 or 5 years old. In august 2020, I decided to try out as a 23 year old. I had one year of high school cheer in my body at that point. My season lasted 2 months because of covid. In september 2021, I tried out again and made a level 7 team (all girl). Me, the girl with barely a year of cheer in her body. Last april, I won a silver medal with my team at the world championships and won the most improved. I believe that anyone that wants to do something can, they just have to commit 100% to it. Daniel did say some things in this video that I'm actually gonna apply.

I’m leaving with great messages from this video, “excited, not nervous.” And, “if you are afraid of failure you don’t deserve success.” The last one hits me the most, I’ve stop myself from doing a lot of things because of that. I think I’m not alone when I say Michelle is a huge inspiration to her viewers, you can do anything if you actually try and give your best, is not going to be easy but it’ll be gratifying.

[@aristired6252]

Michelle is so incredibly athletic, a quick learner and very adaptable. Her energy is perfect for a cheerleader and exactly who you need to get people to excited. As an athlete, these are the people you want on your team. It doesn’t matter how skilled you are from the beginning, anyone can improve with dedication and the right attitude. On a national team, it makes sense that as someone with less than 2 weeks on training that you won’t be on par (although it was genuinely incredible what she accomplished). However, I would 100% want to dedicate time to someone who is clearly capable both physically and mentally the training to make it onto the team. Both Michelle and her partner had great teamwork and attitude. So much respect to you guys. I’m currently in a tough spot with my university sport but Michelle reminds me of who I want to be and what I can do if I just put my mind to it and commit. So much respect.

[@charlottetaylor11]

im a cheerleader, i did football cheer for three years, and All-Star cheer for the past 5 years. people believe that cheerleading isn't a sport and is just something for fun. it is fun, but very hard. I really love this video because it shows how hard cheerleading really is. thank you Michelle

alright even though you didn't make it the fact they said you impressed them and the team can learn from you as well as saying you were not that far off from making it would 100% make me have a smile for days. they where truly surprised how fast you learned the skills to be where you where witch is crazy i know people in there 20's that do this as there profession and still haven't perfected things yet. i give you props for being where you where and giving it the good old college try.

[@Kaalyn_HOW]

Man, this felt so rushed again even though it was longer. The best part of these was always watching Michelle go through her mental experience with us. The day in, day out of the mental process of what it means to do these challenges, what she's afraid of, what she's learning, what hurts, what's scary, what feels too hard, what she's learning about herself. Not 60s of a few skills and "I'm trying out now!". Like, we went from a toe-touch to flipping stunts in no time and not a single moment to process that MASSIVE leap! This series was all about accomplishing a mission....which was way more about the person journey than the physical task completion. I felt like I learned more about everyone else and very little about Michelle.

[@TechGirl84]

I agree! I liked the mental processing as well as the more involved training that she used to film.

[@josephdahdouh2725]

I agree, but your suggestion is not really a criticism, but an addition to the video Michelle did. Her video is leaning towards perfection, but with a few missing aspects that you discussed. But, no video on youtube is perfect, and that's why, just enjoy the video that you see, and be thankful.

[@kiram.3619]

Agreed. What was so motivational was seeing someone struggle, but still continue. See someone grit their teeth. Put in effort. No doubt she put in effort to get to that level of fitness to begin with, but this video feels more like watching someone perfect be perfect and achieving their dreams. It looks unattainable, not encouraging. (Maybe she could accompany someone who struggles, if she doesn't. Talk to people at different stages of learning something. Etc.)

[@JulietteKernDiamond]

She must have looked at the stats and seen people aren't watching long form content anymore. Tik tok is destroying our already short attention spans lol.

I became a cheerleader in high school, then joined an allstar program, and eventually did college. And I can without a doubt say, Michelle has the makings of a really really good cheerleader, it's really just the lack of skills like the coach was saying. So this goes to show, PARENTS, if your child expresses and interest early try to get them tumbling asap and before you know it you could have a lil cheer prodigee!
