I’m in 8th grade right now but we already had tryouts for freshman year. I can’t tumble and my jumps aren’t the best but I never stopped smiling and I made varsity! I’m the first one EVER in the history of my school to make varsity as a freshman without a back handspring 😊 so yes always smile!!!
Sorry no one actually typed it but i hope you made it! And if not then practice extra hard to make it next year!! Once you have made it never stop pushing yourself ro be the BEST you that you can be, in all criterias of your life!!!😸 If your determined enough, you CAN'T LOSE! You are guaranteed to gain something or at the least learn something for the future!!!!
I'm trying out in two and a half hours and I don't know the three cheers. . . I need to know a dance and three cheers. The cheers are simple and the dance is fun.
I want to try out for cheerleading next year but I have no experience I can’t even do a cartwheel or a split or anything so how can I prep myself and practice for cheer tryouts????? Plz help
STRETCH!!! honestly a cartwheel/split is not that hard to master if you look up youtube tutorials + put in work. main parts of cheer involve flexibility (for jumps) and strength (for basing). Also, you don’t have to know everything, just be willing to learn and ask for help. you got this!
There were two girls who did competitive cheerleading at my tryouts. They were both shy and rarely smiled. One of them had her round off back handspring. I am not a tumbler, but i smiled the entire try outs and made it. They didn’t. So, yeah, ALWAYS smile 😊
Rae Kim smile smile smile smile:))) also make sure you work on motions and make sure they are tight!!! Try to work on jumps and tumbling, but unless it’s mandatory don’t worry too much.
I am FREAKING OUT!! I have tryouts in like 4 days! I have been in cheerleading before but I just joined because my dad wanted me to and i only stayed for a month. But I really want to join this year and have a great experience. I’ve never tumbled but I have a decent level of flexibility. I’ll do my best to smile all the time and be social and help everybody out. I’ll update you guys. (LIKE TO REMIND ME!! 💗)
Garcia Ariel lt actually went pretty well, bc I thought I did terrible, but I made the team. There were some amazing girls out there too, so I guess I wasn’t as bad as I thought, if I made the team with them 😂😁
My advice is if your planing trying out I’d say start workout . Most importantly smile & have a good work ethic have fun . Be ready & willing . You have dance skills that’s a plus . There’s plenty of videos that give you some insight. Practice practice practice. Makes perfection
I struggle with foot movements so bad but something that really helps me that sounds counterintuitive is like don't think or don't over think it atleast really just zone into moving more then thinking. 😅
I never had cheer experience before and I tried out for the JV cheer team and smiled the WHOLE entire time and threw really bad tumbles and I made it!!!
I’m trying out in a week I’m so exited I will update everyone!! ♥️ I’m very nervous I have a round off working on a backhand spring. My jumps are ok but I will look great and have a bright smile! Update: Today is Tryouts 💛💛 Update: Ok so I did my round off went to the front and didn’t my standing tumbling. Then I did my jumps my coach literally did a thumbs up and looked happy! So I think I made it! I was loud and proud on my chant I’ll update you💛💛 Update: I MADE THE TEAM THEY LOVE ME AHHHHHHHHH💛
I have tryouts next week! I have been a competitive gymnast for 7 years and have finally decided to move on to cheer! I’m super excited! I have great experience with tumbling but I’m nervous for my jumps, stunts, and memorizing the dance. Wish me luck!❤️😁
my cheer tryouts are today! i hope i make it im not that good at jumps, but ill try my best and give facial expressions and always smile. Wish me luck!!
i tried out for 7th grade cheer last year in 6th and didn’t make the team. i had horrible anxiety last year and now i’m prepared. i am going to try my absolute hardest on the dance this year and smile and be so much louder !!
I didnt make my team the first year, but you just need to keep practicing, because if you love cheer, you wont stop practicing!!!! And lastly good luck dont put yourself down
Makayla, I know how it feels!!! And trust me girl I practiced for 3 years and I didn’t make it but you know practice on jumps, tumbling, and getting confidents!!! You got this I believe in you 💕
i’m not flexible at all and can’t do a cartwheel or anything and i want to be in cheer in 9th or maybe 8th grade i’m in 7th rn but i mean if i have no experience it’s never to early to start practicing right?
i’m working for making the cheer team for my middle school! i have barely any cheer experience and i have NO tumbling! in my school we dont need to have tumbling but they would like us to have a back handspring, i’m working in that currency and i’m almost there :) i am going to work on more tumbling to so i have better chances to make the team!! i have no idea when try outs are, it could even be this month!! i will definitely edit this after tryouts so you guys now!! i hope all this hard work pays off!! please pray for me!!😇💕🙏🏻
Cheerleading Tips: 1.) Your cheer dances WILL get or be HARD. If you make a mistake don’t make a face that gives it out that you made a mistake, KEEP SMILING no matter what. 2.) Make sure if your are basing look down, and once the flyer goes up DONT arch your back anymore. 3.) TRY YOUR VERY BEST!!
Maggie Rowley meee toooo I’m freaking scared last year I made my team and I was a base but this year since we are older we are going with the older girls and I’m probably being a flyer :|
I tried out last year and didn’t make it I thought I was doing good but really didn’t realize how bad I was actually doing I recommend that you video yourself doing your skills and then perfect them because I wasn’t even doing a cartwheel right and now I almost have my front and back hand spring tryouts are in 3 months
So I have tryouts tm and I’m in middle school, 7th grade, and I did cheer camp for 3 years but now it’s more hard and we have to try out and I’m scared but I feel confident bc I have a good bubbly personality and Idk. I just hope I make it😂I’ll update u tomorrow and then I’ll tell u if I made it Edit: ok so it’s been two days of practice but today is tryouts, I will come back when Ik if I made it or not! Edit: I made it my dudes!
Love your videos girl! I found you last year when I was trying out for my school's cheer team for the first time, and I made varsity as a first year cheerleader!! Thanks so much girl!
Watching this video again 😂 tryouts are May 10 and we have a two day clinic before. Going to update you :) Today: I can do a bad bow and arrow (can’t hold it very long), an okay scorpion, a one handed cartwheel (my wrist is sprained), my jumps aren’t overextended, but they’re good I guess, and that’s about all I have to tell you 😂 I’m hoping to make Varsity this year :) Day 1: Went pretty well. Everyone else is really good though so I’m not sure if I’ll make it. I’m going to hope for the best though. Day 2: So we did tumbling and flexibility stuff today. And everyone is so good. Almost everyone can at least do a few bad back handsprings. I can’t even get my aerial, I’m close though. I’m hoping I’ll be able to do it at tryouts. I’m not sure I can make Varsity but again, staying positive Day 3/Tryouts: Okay. So there’s no way I’m making Varsity now. I messed up on my roundoff a little because my wrist hurts and I didn’t push through my shoulders enough, we only did a cheer once instead of twice like normal so I spirited late, and it just wasn’t good. I guess I’ll let you know what happens, but all of my friends are going to make Varsity except me 😭 the kids that are younger than me will make it :( Results: Today (May 16, 2019) I found out I made Varsity! I’m so happy, I can’t believe it! I’m going to be working so hard this summer on everything, and I’m going to get higher level tumbling skills with summer gymnastics :) I’m so nervous but also really happy! 😃
@Mantha Mantha ah well we didn’t wear the mask for the tryout since it was just us, and my facials and dancing and cheers were great but i didn’t make it, there were only about 5 spots, 3 girls already did all star, and most people had good tumbling, but i had none and didn’t make it
the good thing abt our school is they aren’t to strict. we don’t have to be able to stunt or tumble. for our tumbling category you only have to try a cartwheel and split. but, if you have an extra skill you can show it.
Deshare Mars I can do a split and that’s about it , tho I have been stretching trying to do a toe touch and stuff , do you think I can make it when they have tryouts? Mine are obviously far away tho because it’s January rn
I'm trying to make 7th grade cheer but at first I thought that you just had to be good at everything. This video has helped me so much, I'm gonna keep working and hopefully make cheer
Yuh I'm in seventh grade goin on to 8th and I'm trying out tmr on the app zoom and I can't do good jumps or anything 😭 I hope this smile does wonders💀 wish me luck 😬
I want a video talking about how to make the Varsity cheer team because my school has a JV and Varsity. I know I can make JV, but how can I make Varsity, so like higher level. Especially since it’s not like I’m in 11th grade, I’m younger so it’s really hard to make it unless you’re in like 10th grade or higher. It’s possible, but difficult and ughhh. I’m trying to make a training plan since I literally have until May 😂 Someone halppppp Edit: if you read the whole thing, tysm 💕
I'm so scared for try outs. I'm trying out for freshman year in 2 weeks. I can't do any jumps or tumbling, does anyone have additional tips. Thanks for this video btw. Wish me luck
UrMoms ChestHair watch Anna McNulty's video on improving cheer jumps. they are a life saver !!! 🙏 I wasn't able to do all the stretches in the video as she is WAY more flexible than I am but I did what I could and tried my best. her video definitely helped me improve my jumps. I could really see a difference and I was shocked! as for tumbling, I'm currently watching tumbling tutorials on RUclips (I watch Alavia and TheCheernastics2). I have no tumbling skills and I doubt I'll achieve a back walkover or front walkover by tryouts but that's perfectly fine. as long as you smile, you show effort and you girl it your all, I think you should be good to go. even if you don't end up making the team, keep on practicing for next year! take tumbling classes this summer and throughout the school year. good luck!!
I’m trying out for cheer tomorrow and I’m really nervous but idk why😭 I’m in the 7th grade and my sister is a varsity high school cheerleader so we have been practicing all day! I hope I make the team and try my best!
I have tryouts one Monday and I’ve been in cheer since I was little but I’m kinda worried about trying out this year because I had a injury but I still have a positive attitude, sharpness, loudness, and facials. Wish me luck on Monday guys😁❤️
Hi guys! My tryouts were yesterday (the release of Taylor swifts new album) and I’m going into junior high school. I have some experience in dance and I’m decently flexible. When I went into the tryout room, I showed them my running tumbling which was just a round off. Then showed them my standing tumbling . I showed my jumps which were not the best, then the cheer and dance. I made sure that I was bursting with confidence and smiling. Then we left the room then after tryouts were done they called callbacks. I didn’t get called back which really scared me and a few others. Then, it was time to look at the numbers and . . . . . . I MADE THE TEAM!!!!!!! Being confident will help a TON as well as smiling even when the judges a writing things down. I wish you guys luck at your tryouts!!!!!!!!
OMG THANK YOUU THIS IS PERFECT TIMING!!! MY TRYOUTS ARE IN A WEEK AND IVE BEEN SEARCHING AND IVE WATCHED SO MANY VIDEOS ON THIS AND THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED
I wanna try out for cheerleading in 6 months, Im really scared, and I have no experience. So now Im trying to figure out how to be a cheerleader in 6 months. Let me know any tips ans tricks if any of you have any. In the meantime, Im gonna watch all of her videos😂😊
Here are some tips ☺️: -Learn the chant first, then the coreoghraphics -Make sure your voice is loud and clear! -Tumbling is a plus -Smile! Also here are some things about you that will help: -You have to be confident. It will help your performance -You probably will wear tight clothes and small clothes so if you aren’t comfortable with that then that’s a minus -Cheer is A LOT of work. Diets I’ve seen say this exactly: 1. You may eat salads- no ranch or ceaser 2. Two fruit bowls a day 3. No soda 4. A slice of meat a day 5. Lay off the bread 6. No wheat thins 7. Sugar free gum 8. Don’t eat past 7 pm 9. No pasta- please no sauce 10. No candy 11. No boys- bad influence 12. 3 bottles of water a day (Only Dasani) 13. Absolutely no alcohol 14. Lay off the cheese 15. You can only have 2 meals a day, choose wisely I’m not trying to scare you 😂 I hope you make the team!! Good luck 😌💖
Thank you so much! I'm in 6th grade and I'm trying out for my school's cheer team. (If I make it then I'll be a cheerleader in 7th grade because 6th grade isn't allowed to do sports at our school) Tumbling isn't required, well you have to at least be able to do a round off which I can, but jumps and dances are. We compete throughout the school year. I've never cheered before but I'm quitting competitive dance to do cheer. Hopefully I make it! Tryouts are on June 6th so wish me luck.
I'm in 8th grade. I made the team last year. but it was pretty easy to make it considering it was my first year of cheer. I am trying out for varsity this year.. even though I am not in highschool. bit last year highschool coach said that I could possibly make the team if I worked on a few things. I am kind of EXTREMELY nervous...I HAVE TRYOUTS IN 6 DAYS! ahh!
My tryouts are the day after tomorrow and I’m freaking out! We have three different routines we have to doooo!!!! On the hardest routine, I only know half of it!!! AHHHH wish me luck
I’m a senior and I have no previous experience in cheer. I’m trying out for the basketball season and I’m really scared because I don’t know anything. But a lot of people who don’t know anything made the team last year so I hope I make it!
I am a gymnast and I am trying out for my high school cheer team. My toe touch isn’t the best and my smile is kinda awful I have room to grow this video helped me a lot! Thank you 😊
My cheer tryouts are in May. I can pretty much do all the cheers and dances and jumps I have to do. The only thing that has me worried is anxiety. I have very high anxiety. I can perform in front of people with a verity of people (Which cheer is). I’m also very good with facial expressions like smiling. The only thing that I have anxiety about is performing in front of the judges alone. At our school we have to perform alone in front of judges. Some schools do it in a group and just eliminate people who aren’t doing it right. Anyone have tips about anxiety? It would be very much appreciated 🙃🙃🙃
Aubree Bauer I agree with you me at my school when you tryout its infront of the judges alone and I’m really scared to not make it and nervous just when you get there remember why you want to do it and think I’m probably never going to see these judges again .
i used to do gymnastics and i’ve been doing dance since i was 4 so i’m deciding to try cheer. i’m going to be a freshman and my jumps are so bad and i can’t tumble but my smile is really good and my movements are sharp. i’m really hoping i make the team!( tryouts are tomorrow)
@Maddison Beach: That just boosted my confidence so much! I’m trying out for 7th grade cheer and I smile a lot and am very outgoing but I don’t have that much tumbling skill and my jumps ares the best and I was so nervous but reading that made me feel more confident that I’ll make it!!
Thank you so much I was so nervous but then when you said if your jumps are not good but you act like you really want it that made me feel so much better thank you so much
My tryouts aren’t till March but I didn’t make it last year due to a limit on the flyers so I’m doing everything I can to make sure that I do my best this video helped so much and hopefully I’ll get on varsity!!
I just wanna share my cheer story. At the gym I cheer at they do this think we’re the first year you try out they put you on a level 1 prep team no matter what. ( btw this is my first year so I’m on prep rn) So I am a flyer and a base. I have my BHS so yeah I think I may make level 2 next year!
i’m in 8th grade trying out for freshman cheer! i have no tumbling skills and can barley do a cartwheel but i’m decently flexible and a pretty good dancer. tryouts are in a few weeks and i really hope i make jv!!
Thank you so much for this video! I tried out last year going into 7th grade and didn't make it, but this year I saw it and made cheer for my 8th grade year so great video!!!
i’m in 7th trying out for my cheer team with my sister and as a tall girl with spotting experience i feel i might have a chance and i have a pretty smile so i’ll be sure to show it off to the judges :). edit: IMADE ITTTTTT 📣💙🖤
I’m in 7th grade rn and cheer tryouts for 7th grade has passed but I wanna try out for 8th grade in May any tips ? And btw I tried out last year but didn’t make it and I can’t tumble and my jumps are really bad .
ok so perfect what you can do. say you can’t do a toe touch but you can do a hurdler, master that. smile and act really excited. show a lot of school spirit. talk to the other girls, coaches really want a team that are like sisters. lastly, really want it. good luck bb ❤️
make sure to show alot of spirit..!!! Be as LOUD AS POSSIBLE and it's even better if you're the loudest one :)) Smile ALL THE TIME even if you mess up...!!! dont worry it's fine if you cant tumble or jump that good cause I cant tumble and I'm still captain :))
I’m starting high school next year and I’m going to tryout and I don’t know hot to tumble or do a backhand spring but I’m a really bubbly person and I smile all the time and I want to try something new and I love dancing I have a lot of energy so I think cheer will be good for me
Omg girl we went to the same high school and now I’m graduated and I want to try cheer. Here you are a fellow Canyon alum to give me advice (plus we had a bomb cheer team) Thanks for the advice! I can’t wait to watch more of your videos :) so cool to see you are a RUclipsr
i tried out last year and i was awful and didnt know what i was doing but i tried out this year after a bit kore practice and i made the team :) varsity cheer :)
i just joined cheer club but i have no experience and im not too flexible, i cant even do a walkover lol. but the coach told me that i can join cheer tho i dont have it all, he told me to enjoy this club and we're practicing tomorrow! dont give up guys
I'm in 8th grade. I'm really nervous for tryouts. I'm not a tumbler what so ever and my jumps are okish but I love to smile and I love cheer with my whole heart and I would literally be so happy if I made the team. Ik a sophomore who is a cheerleader and she is going to help me before tryouts. I will update if I make the team or not. Update* didnt make the team. I've been in cheer since kindergarten. Ig I'm just not good enough because I can't tumble. I've been working on the dance cheer and chant for 2 weeks, I drove an hour to go and have help from a coach I know. I worked so hard and it wasn't good enough.
I actually have no experience. I did football season for middle school one year but my team was very mean and I had no enthusiasm since it was a discouraging team. The highest level tumbling I have is a roundoff. I was a main base at my old school. I don’t have very good jumps. Can you do a video on jumps? Or maybe one on tumbling?
We done already had tryout but I’m still watching this I’m gone have to watch it again when cheer tryouts come again I do jumps good but i can’t tumble and I was smiling and i tried out for sprit and game day cheer
I’m trying out for 7th and 8th grade cheer and I really want to get in the team. I only have my back bend kick over, round off, and cartwheel. I am right now working on my front walkover and I’m so close!!! If I don’t get in football season then I’ll try out for basketball season because there is 2 tryouts for different seasons.
im starting to practice now, tryouts are at the end of the year, i have zero experience but i really wanna make it and i want to stand out. tysm for this vid!!
I’m trying out in like a month maybe two so I’m using all these tips and practicing, I already got my stomach to the ground in a straddle (I used to only be able to get my head) Edit: right now it’s Sunday I have tryouts on Tuesday and Thursday wish me luck I’ll update
This year my tryouts were a fail even tho I was smiling and being peppy when everyone else was dead inside but I still didn’t make the team☹️. This year I’ve been working even harder so I can make the team next year and I’m really hoping this video helps because I’ve been working REALLY hard every day even tho my tumbling is😬.
I have tryouts tomorrow, and I'm really nervous! I'm pretty sure the hardest thing I have to do is a roundoff and I can do that so hopefully I'll make it. :)
I’ve done cheer in the past in elementary school so I have experience and I have been talking tumbling classes and almost had my back handspring but then I injured my back so I can’t tumble and my jumps aren’t the best but pretty good in my opinion I’m a pretty shy person and I’m trying to get over that
I’m super flexible because I’ve been dancing since I was 5, but my cheer jumps are like 3 inches off the ground. I don’t have much experience with cheer, but I really want to get into JV but there are like 25 people trying out and I’m terrified that I might not get in. Ahhh pls help. Any other help would be appreciated!
I’m trying out for cheer for sophomore year, but I barely have a cartwheel - I have TONS of energy, really good dancing and cheering, and okay jumps. What do you think my chances are? I’d be eligible for junior varsity, and I did cheer in middle school so I have experience
it’s the summer and i’m trying out for the cheerleading team this year (i’m in 7th) i’m not too flexible. i can do: cartwheel,handstand, bridge,backbend but i can’t do: splits i’m close to doing a toe touch i can do a couple jumps and i know a lot of cheer terms so idk if i’m gonna make it i’ll try to smile a lot so idk if i’m gonna make any tips?
I’m in 8th grade right now but we already had tryouts for freshman year. I can’t tumble and my jumps aren’t the best but I never stopped smiling and I made varsity! I’m the first one EVER in the history of my school to make varsity as a freshman without a back handspring 😊 so yes always smile!!!
That's great! I have pretty good jumps and a large, bright smile, so I hope I make Varsity!
Yay! Congratulation!
Madi Beach that means the coaches think you’ll learn tumbling and jumps fast! Good on you for being choachable
Madi Beach congrats!!! I’m trying out for varsity cheer next week and I’m a freshman
Madi Beach OMGGG How did you do it?
I am trying out for cheer tomorrow wish me luck

You are guaranteed to gain something or at the least learn something for the future!!!!

STRETCH!!! honestly a cartwheel/split is not that hard to master if you look up youtube tutorials + put in work. main parts of cheer involve flexibility (for jumps) and strength (for basing). Also, you don’t have to know everything, just be willing to learn and ask for help. you got this!

You can do it last year i tried out and ciuldnt even do a handstand and i made it
jade o sameee ughh I used to be really flexible

There were two girls who did competitive cheerleading at my tryouts. They were both shy and rarely smiled. One of them had her round off back handspring. I am not a tumbler, but i smiled the entire try outs and made it. They didn’t. So, yeah, ALWAYS smile 😊
Oh wow, your just cheering they didn’t make it?
Girl i wish u where my friend
I’m now a senior. My last year in high school so I was like. Why not try out for cheer. And what do ya know? I made varsity!😁
jules i did tumbling when I was in middle school. And I cheered once in middle school too. But you don’t Need tumbling unless your school requires it.
Hey I’m a junior (future senior) and I’m trying out for cheer. I’m hella scared and I’ve never done cheer before. What are some tips you can give?
Rae Kim smile smile smile smile:))) also make sure you work on motions and make sure they are tight!!! Try to work on jumps and tumbling, but unless it’s mandatory don’t worry too much.
Omg really this is the same situation I’m in ! But I have no cheerleading experience :(
GUYS OMG I MADE MY HIGH SCHOOL CHEER TEAM WITHOUT ANY EXPERIENCE BUT JUST BEING CONFIDENT, SMILING, AND BEING LOUD!!!!!
I’m in 7th and I’m trying out for Varsity. Wish me luck.

I am so happy to finally see a RECENT cheer tryout video, because mine is in 2 days
DanceMomsLover#1#1 Did you make the team?
Amaya Grinstead Yes !! I made the team :)) It’s my first year trying out, so I made JV
Garcia Ariel lt actually went pretty well, bc I thought I did terrible, but I made the team. There were some amazing girls out there too, so I guess I wasn’t as bad as I thought, if I made the team with them 😂😁
Good job on making the team!! Mine are tomorrow lol
What tumbling tricks did you do and what is JV cuz I’m from England 😊 btw congrats on making the team!
My advice is if your planing trying out I’d say start workout . Most importantly smile & have a good work ethic have fun . Be ready & willing . You have dance skills that’s a plus . There’s plenty of videos that give you some insight. Practice practice practice. Makes perfection
tryouts are in 2 weeks !! praying god will help me out w what I need 🥺🥺 Edit: I made the team 🥳😎!!!
So.... no one told me how hard the dance is bc I’m really stressed, frustrated, and crying. 🤙🏼
ratatouille OMG SAME I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE😭
I have band , three honors classes and I’m a cheerleader and did I mention I have a part time job😭but I manage to
do it all SOMEHOW 🤷🏼♀️
That was literally me
I struggle with foot movements so bad but something that really helps me that sounds counterintuitive is like don't think or don't over think it atleast really just zone into moving more then thinking. 😅
I never had cheer experience before and I tried out for the JV cheer team and smiled the WHOLE entire time and threw really bad tumbles and I made it!!!
Just made cheer my sophmore year after not making it my freshman year!!

¡¡Sximply_ida !! It depends on your school but they teach you the cheers and dance and you can perform in a group or by yourself.
Marjorie Tate Can you do a back handspring?
Marjorie Tate good job i have them this thursday

i’m not flexible at all and can’t do a cartwheel or anything and i want to be in cheer in 9th or maybe 8th grade i’m in 7th rn but i mean if i have no experience it’s never to early to start practicing right?
I’m in 7th grade but I’m trying out on Monday!!! With no experience!!😂
@@chere4512 if you need any tips i was on my team for 3 years and I'm also starting tryouts monday, my insta is jesse.lindsey1 if u wanna talk
i’m working for making the cheer team for my middle school! i have barely any cheer experience and i have NO tumbling! in my school we dont need to have tumbling but they would like us to have a back handspring, i’m working in that currency and i’m almost there :) i am going to work on more tumbling to so i have better chances to make the team!! i have no idea when try outs are, it could even be this month!! i will definitely edit this after tryouts so you guys now!! i hope all this hard work pays off!! please pray for me!!😇💕🙏🏻
I feel like I'm going to get bullied if I become a cheerleader and I won't get respect
Not at all. Who is hoinh to bully u?
Sahithi Ambavaram same because I am really shy but keep your head up get out your comfort zone and gain confidence
I totally get that. Just remember that anyone who teases you is not worth your time. Do what you love and ignore everyone else!
Sahithi Ambavaram / omg samee
Sahithi Ambavaram they are jealous bc every at my school loves the cheerleaders. If anything it will make people want to be friends with you 💗
Cheerleading Tips: 1.) Your cheer dances WILL get or be HARD. If you make a mistake don’t make a face that gives it out that you made a mistake, KEEP SMILING no matter what. 2.) Make sure if your are basing look down, and once the flyer goes up DONT arch your back anymore. 3.) TRY YOUR VERY BEST!!
I just want to say thank you for all the tips ! I basically binged on all your vids before tryouts and i made my college team! 💕
I have tryouts tomorrow... i think i’m ready but i’m scared ... wish me luck !
Kk Gar how’d you do!?! i made mine ! ☺️
Maggie Rowley I’m late but GREAT JOB!!
Maggie Rowley you got thisss
Maggie Rowley meee toooo I’m freaking scared last year I made my team and I was a base but this year since we are older we are going with the older girls and I’m probably being a flyer :|
Maggie Rowley update please
I tried out last year and didn’t make it
I thought I was doing good but really didn’t realize how bad I was actually doing I recommend that you video yourself doing your skills and then perfect them because I wasn’t even doing a cartwheel right and now I almost have my front and back hand spring tryouts are in 3 months
this post could not have come at a more perfect time! i have tryouts for cheer tm for next school years team and this helped a lot
hannahhh I hope it goes well! Good luck!
I just realized it was probably weird that a stranger told you good luck haha
So I have tryouts tm and I’m in middle school, 7th grade, and I did cheer camp for 3 years but now it’s more hard and we have to try out and I’m scared but I feel confident bc I have a good bubbly personality and Idk. I just hope I make it😂I’ll update u tomorrow and then I’ll tell u if I made it
Edit: ok so it’s been two days of practice but today is tryouts, I will come back when Ik if I made it or not!
Edit: I made it my dudes!
Congratulations!!
Love your videos girl! I found you last year when I was trying out for my school's cheer team for the first time, and I made varsity as a first year cheerleader!! Thanks so much girl!
Watching this video again 😂 tryouts are May 10 and we have a two day clinic before. Going to update you :)
Today: I can do a bad bow and arrow (can’t hold it very long), an okay scorpion, a one handed cartwheel (my wrist is sprained), my jumps aren’t overextended, but they’re good I guess, and that’s about all I have to tell you 😂 I’m hoping to make Varsity this year :)
Day 1: Went pretty well. Everyone else is really good though so I’m not sure if I’ll make it. I’m going to hope for the best though.
Day 2: So we did tumbling and flexibility stuff today. And everyone is so good. Almost everyone can at least do a few bad back handsprings. I can’t even get my aerial, I’m close though. I’m hoping I’ll be able to do it at tryouts. I’m not sure I can make Varsity but again, staying positive
Day 3/Tryouts: Okay. So there’s no way I’m making Varsity now. I messed up on my roundoff a little because my wrist hurts and I didn’t push through my shoulders enough, we only did a cheer once instead of twice like normal so I spirited late, and it just wasn’t good. I guess I’ll let you know what happens, but all of my friends are going to make Varsity except me 😭 the kids that are younger than me will make it :(
Results: Today (May 16, 2019) I found out I made Varsity! I’m so happy, I can’t believe it! I’m going to be working so hard this summer on everything, and I’m going to get higher level tumbling skills with summer gymnastics :) I’m so nervous but also really happy! 😃
ME WHEN I REALIZE I HAVE TO WEAR A MASK AND THEY WONT SEE MY SMILE
@Mantha Mantha ah well we didn’t wear the mask for the tryout since it was just us, and my facials and dancing and cheers were great but i didn’t make it, there were only about 5 spots, 3 girls already did all star, and most people had good tumbling, but i had none and didn’t make it
This was SUPER helpful!! I have tryouts soon, but I can't tumble very well... Here's to hoping!!
update: ya'll.... i made it haha
the good thing abt our school is they aren’t to strict. we don’t have to be able to stunt or tumble. for our tumbling category you only have to try a cartwheel and split. but, if you have an extra skill you can show it.
Cheer Tryouts😬 First week of June!!! So nervous and I really don’t have any skills no toe touches,splits,etc.
Deshare Mars I can do a split and that’s about it , tho I have been stretching trying to do a toe touch and stuff , do you think I can make it when they have tryouts? Mine are obviously far away tho because it’s January rn
I have cheer tryouts this week so I'm watching all these videos to try and get prepped. I'll edit this when I make the team in Jesus name.
I tried out 9th grade year and I made it... now I’m trying out on Friday for 10th grade year.. wish me luck 😭💕🥺😊
I'm trying to make 7th grade cheer but at first I thought that you just had to be good at everything. This video has helped me so much, I'm gonna keep working and hopefully make cheer
did you make it?
Yuh I'm in seventh grade goin on to 8th and I'm trying out tmr on the app zoom and I can't do good jumps or anything 😭 I hope this smile does wonders💀 wish me luck 😬
savannah montalvo did you make it
did u make it?
Did u make it?
I’m going into 6th grade and trying out for cheer! Thanks so much I’m so nervous I hope me and my friend make the team! :D
I want a video talking about how to make the Varsity cheer team because my school has a JV and Varsity. I know I can make JV, but how can I make Varsity, so like higher level. Especially since it’s not like I’m in 11th grade, I’m younger so it’s really hard to make it unless you’re in like 10th grade or higher. It’s possible, but difficult and ughhh. I’m trying to make a training plan since I literally have until May 😂 Someone halppppp
Edit: if you read the whole thing, tysm 💕
Livi’s Life omgggg sameee here😦
So far what can you do? I believe you can tho 👌💛
I'm so scared for try outs. I'm trying out for freshman year in 2 weeks. I can't do any jumps or tumbling, does anyone have additional tips. Thanks for this video btw. Wish me luck
UrMoms ChestHair watch Anna McNulty's video on improving cheer jumps. they are a life saver !!! 🙏 I wasn't able to do all the stretches in the video as she is WAY more flexible than I am but I did what I could and tried my best. her video definitely helped me improve my jumps. I could really see a difference and I was shocked! as for tumbling, I'm currently watching tumbling tutorials on RUclips (I watch Alavia and TheCheernastics2). I have no tumbling skills and I doubt I'll achieve a back walkover or front walkover by tryouts but that's perfectly fine. as long as you smile, you show effort and you girl it your all, I think you should be good to go. even if you don't end up making the team, keep on practicing for next year! take tumbling classes this summer and throughout the school year. good luck!!
Stretch alot
I’m trying out for cheer tomorrow and I’m really nervous but idk why😭 I’m in the 7th grade and my sister is a varsity high school cheerleader so we have been practicing all day! I hope I make the team and try my best!
I have tryouts one Monday and I’ve been in cheer since I was little but I’m kinda worried about trying out this year because I had a injury but I still have a positive attitude, sharpness, loudness, and facials. Wish me luck on Monday guys😁❤️
Hi guys! My tryouts were yesterday (the release of Taylor swifts new album) and I’m going into junior high school. I have some experience in dance and I’m decently flexible. When I went into the tryout room, I showed them my running tumbling which was just a round off. Then showed them my standing tumbling . I showed my jumps which were not the best, then the cheer and dance. I made sure that I was bursting with confidence and smiling. Then we left the room then after tryouts were done they called callbacks. I didn’t get called back which really scared me and a few others. Then, it was time to look at the numbers and
.
.
.

.

I MADE THE TEAM!!!!!!!
Being confident will help a TON as well as smiling even when the judges a writing things down.
I wish you guys luck at your tryouts!!!!!!!!
Woohoo! Love it! My first year of junior high I didn’t make it but it pushed me to make it the next year and I did!!! Congrats!
OMG THANK YOUU THIS IS PERFECT TIMING!!! MY TRYOUTS ARE IN A WEEK AND IVE BEEN SEARCHING AND IVE WATCHED SO MANY VIDEOS ON THIS AND THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED
I wanna try out for cheerleading in 6 months, Im really scared, and I have no experience. So now Im trying to figure out how to be a cheerleader in 6 months. Let me know any tips ans tricks if any of you have any. In the meantime, Im gonna watch all of her videos😂😊
Here are some tips ☺️:
-Learn the chant first, then the coreoghraphics
-Make sure your voice is loud and clear!
-Tumbling is a plus
-Smile!
Also here are some things about you that will help:
-You have to be confident. It will help your performance
-You probably will wear tight clothes and small clothes so if you aren’t comfortable with that then that’s a minus
-Cheer is A LOT of work. Diets I’ve seen say this exactly:
1. You may eat salads- no ranch or ceaser
2. Two fruit bowls a day
3. No soda
4. A slice of meat a day
5. Lay off the bread
6. No wheat thins
7. Sugar free gum
8. Don’t eat past 7 pm
9. No pasta- please no sauce
10. No candy
11. No boys- bad influence
12. 3 bottles of water a day (Only Dasani)
13. Absolutely no alcohol
14. Lay off the cheese
15. You can only have 2 meals a day, choose wisely
I’m not trying to scare you 😂 I hope you make the team!! Good luck 😌💖
Thank you so much! I'm in 6th grade and I'm trying out for my school's cheer team. (If I make it then I'll be a cheerleader in 7th grade because 6th grade isn't allowed to do sports at our school) Tumbling isn't required, well you have to at least be able to do a round off which I can, but jumps and dances are. We compete throughout the school year. I've never cheered before but I'm quitting competitive dance to do cheer. Hopefully I make it! Tryouts are on June 6th so wish me luck.
Aislinn Nash did you make it?!
that's today!!! how did you do? mines are tomorrow and i'm soooo nervous
hey guys! Thanks for the good luck wishes but I ended up not trying out. Sticking to dance! Good luck on y’alls tryouts!!!
Aislinn Marie howd it go ??
Why didn't you try out?
I'm in 8th grade. I made the team last year. but it was pretty easy to make it considering it was my first year of cheer. I am trying out for varsity this year.. even though I am not in highschool. bit last year highschool coach said that I could possibly make the team if I worked on a few things. I am kind of EXTREMELY nervous...I HAVE TRYOUTS IN 6 DAYS! ahh!
My tryouts are the day after tomorrow and I’m freaking out! We have three different routines we have to doooo!!!! On the hardest routine, I only know half of it!!! AHHHH wish me luck
I’m a senior and I have no previous experience in cheer. I’m trying out for the basketball season and I’m really scared because I don’t know anything. But a lot of people who don’t know anything made the team last year so I hope I make it!
I am a gymnast and I am trying out for my high school cheer team. My toe touch isn’t the best and my smile is kinda awful I have room to grow this video helped me a lot! Thank you 😊
My cheer tryouts are tomorrow!! I’m excited and I’ll definitely take this advice to heart :)
My cheer tryouts are in May. I can pretty much do all the cheers and dances and jumps I have to do. The only thing that has me worried is anxiety. I have very high anxiety. I can perform in front of people with a verity of people (Which cheer is). I’m also very good with facial expressions like smiling. The only thing that I have anxiety about is performing in front of the judges alone. At our school we have to perform alone in front of judges. Some schools do it in a group and just eliminate people who aren’t doing it right. Anyone have tips about anxiety? It would be very much appreciated 🙃🙃🙃
Aubree Bauer I agree with you me at my school when you tryout its infront of the judges alone and I’m really scared to not make it and nervous just when you get there remember why you want to do it and think I’m probably never going to see these judges again .
My tryouts are next week, and I’m in 6th grade, and not many make it. I kept on smiling and the coaches seemed to love it:)
i used to do gymnastics and i’ve been doing dance since i was 4 so i’m deciding to try cheer. i’m going to be a freshman and my jumps are so bad and i can’t tumble but my smile is really good and my movements are sharp. i’m really hoping i make the team!( tryouts are tomorrow)
@Maddison Beach: That just boosted my confidence so much! I’m trying out for 7th grade cheer and I smile a lot and am very outgoing but I don’t have that much tumbling skill and my jumps ares the best and I was so nervous but reading that made me feel more confident that I’ll make it!!
so im trying out and im scared i won’t make it and people will judge me
Thank you so much I was so nervous but then when you said if your jumps are not good but you act like you really want it that made me feel so much better thank you so much
My tryouts are literally this week and next week. I’ll give you an update ☺️
Did you find out if you made it?!?!
My tryouts aren’t till March but I didn’t make it last year due to a limit on the flyers so I’m doing everything I can to make sure that I do my best this video helped so much and hopefully I’ll get on varsity!!
I just wanna share my cheer story. At the gym I cheer at they do this think we’re the first year you try out they put you on a level 1 prep team no matter what. ( btw this is my first year so I’m on prep rn) So I am a flyer and a base. I have my BHS so yeah I think I may make level 2 next year!
Exactly, like I thought that there’d be a lot more genuine smiles
I’m in seventh grade but tryouts for freshman year cheer are in less than a year so I’m preparing myself 😂😂😂
i’m in 8th grade trying out for freshman cheer! i have no tumbling skills and can barley do a cartwheel but i’m decently flexible and a pretty good dancer. tryouts are in a few weeks and i really hope i make jv!!
Thank you so much for this video! I tried out last year going into 7th grade and didn't make it, but this year I saw it and made cheer for my 8th grade year so great video!!!
i’m in 7th trying out for my cheer team with my sister and as a tall girl with spotting experience i feel i might have a chance and i have a pretty smile so i’ll be sure to show it off to the judges :).
edit: IMADE ITTTTTT 📣💙🖤
I’m in 7th grade rn and cheer tryouts for 7th grade has passed but I wanna try out for 8th grade in May any tips ? And btw I tried out last year but didn’t make it and I can’t tumble and my jumps are really bad .
Vlogs With A’Kelsa sane tell me if you figure anything out, I’m in the same situation
ok so perfect what you can do. say you can’t do a toe touch but you can do a hurdler, master that. smile and act really excited. show a lot of school spirit. talk to the other girls, coaches really want a team that are like sisters. lastly, really want it. good luck bb ❤️
make sure to show alot of spirit..!!! Be as LOUD AS POSSIBLE and it's even better if you're the loudest one :)) Smile ALL THE TIME even if you mess up...!!! dont worry it's fine if you cant tumble or jump that good cause I cant tumble and I'm still captain :))
I’m starting high school next year and I’m going to tryout and I don’t know hot to tumble or do a backhand spring but I’m a really bubbly person and I smile all the time and I want to try something new and I love dancing I have a lot of energy so I think cheer will be good for me
Omg girl we went to the same high school and now I’m graduated and I want to try cheer. Here you are a fellow Canyon alum to give me advice (plus we had a bomb cheer team) Thanks for the advice! I can’t wait to watch more of your videos :) so cool to see you are a RUclipsr
i have tryouts today, this is my second year cheering not really nervous just hope i make it
i tried out last year and i was awful and didnt know what i was doing but i tried out this year after a bit kore practice and i made the team :) varsity cheer :)
i just joined cheer club but i have no experience and im not too flexible, i cant even do a walkover lol. but the coach told me that i can join cheer tho i dont have it all, he told me to enjoy this club and we're practicing tomorrow! dont give up guys
I'm in 8th grade. I'm really nervous for tryouts. I'm not a tumbler what so ever and my jumps are okish but I love to smile and I love cheer with my whole heart and I would literally be so happy if I made the team. Ik a sophomore who is a cheerleader and she is going to help me before tryouts. I will update if I make the team or not.
Update* didnt make the team. I've been in cheer since kindergarten. Ig I'm just not good enough because I can't tumble. I've been working on the dance cheer and chant for 2 weeks, I drove an hour to go and have help from a coach I know. I worked so hard and it wasn't good enough.
Cheer tryouts are in two days and I’m so so excited and nervous thanks for this vid!
I actually have no experience. I did football season for middle school one year but my team was very mean and I had no enthusiasm since it was a discouraging team. The highest level tumbling I have is a roundoff. I was a main base at my old school. I don’t have very good jumps. Can you do a video on jumps? Or maybe one on tumbling?
I’m literally terrified!! I’m a freshmen right now, but I want to be a cheerleader next year and I’m so scared because I’ve never done it before 😅
We done already had tryout but I’m still watching this I’m gone have to watch it again when cheer tryouts come again I do jumps good but i can’t tumble and I was smiling and i tried out for sprit and game day cheer
I got cheer tryout tomorrow eekk
@@Definitelynotlizzy good luck hope I make the cheer team next year
thank you for all your help can you make an allstar one please ...
p.s. i love your vids
this helped me a lot!! i made the cheer team thank you so much:))❤️❤️
my tryouts are tomorrow and the dance we're doing has me sooooo stressed out!!! i will definitely make sure i smile at all times!!!
I’m trying out May 18th and I know this is an old video but this helps! I have no cheer experience but I’m gonna try my best
Audrey Ruth Ikr Im a late comment but i need to watch this bc tomorrow is the try outs and the judges are coming
I’m trying out for 7th and 8th grade cheer and I really want to get in the team. I only have my back bend kick over, round off, and cartwheel. I am right now working on my front walkover and I’m so close!!! If I don’t get in football season then I’ll try out for basketball season because there is 2 tryouts for different seasons.
im starting to practice now, tryouts are at the end of the year, i have zero experience but i really wanna make it and i want to stand out. tysm for this vid!!
Tryouts for me are on Thursday and I was so nervous but this vid helped! I'll let all of you that care, know if I made it 🌹
kalen and Camille reid did you make it?
dancing.c ohh yeah I forgot but yep I made it and it's been so fun
kalen and Camille reid wow good job! What did you have to do at tryouts?
I’m trying out on May 18th! 😬
Aislinn M. Me too I’m trying out the same day I’m super nervous but good luck
me llamo taco h are you starting clinics on the 14th or no? Also good luck!!
Aislinn M. I have clinics on 14th and 16th which one is learning the material and the other is practice
May 30th
Aislinn M. how did u do? :)
I’m trying out in like a month maybe two so I’m using all these tips and practicing, I already got my stomach to the ground in a straddle (I used to only be able to get my head)
Edit: right now it’s Sunday I have tryouts on Tuesday and Thursday wish me luck I’ll update
This year my tryouts were a fail even tho I was smiling and being peppy when everyone else was dead inside but I still didn’t make the team☹️. This year I’ve been working even harder so I can make the team next year and I’m really hoping this video helps because I’ve been working REALLY hard every day even tho my tumbling is😬.
Did you make it??
I’m trying out for cheer wish me luck. 😭💕
Y’all I’ve cheers for 6 almost 7 years and I still have to watch these videos
I have tryouts tomorrow, and I'm really nervous! I'm pretty sure the hardest thing I have to do is a roundoff and I can do that so hopefully I'll make it. :)
I’ve done cheer in the past in elementary school so I have experience and I have been talking tumbling classes and almost had my back handspring but then I injured my back so I can’t tumble and my jumps aren’t the best but pretty good in my opinion I’m a pretty shy person and I’m trying to get over that
With this tips I try out for Colombia selection and now I'm a world champ so this girl is amazing
I’m super flexible because I’ve been dancing since I was 5, but my cheer jumps are like 3 inches off the ground. I don’t have much experience with cheer, but I really want to get into JV but there are like 25 people trying out and I’m terrified that I might not get in. Ahhh pls help. Any other help would be appreciated!
I’m trying out for cheer for sophomore year, but I barely have a cartwheel - I have TONS of energy, really good dancing and cheering, and okay jumps. What do you think my chances are? I’d be eligible for junior varsity, and I did cheer in middle school so I have experience
did you make it??
it’s the summer and i’m trying out for the cheerleading team this year (i’m in 7th) i’m not too flexible. i can do: cartwheel,handstand, bridge,backbend but i can’t do: splits i’m close to doing a toe touch i can do a couple jumps and i know a lot of cheer terms so idk if i’m gonna make it i’ll try to smile a lot so idk if i’m gonna make any tips?
