Technique and Tips
You want to be the best cheerleader you can be right? Well being the best includes having those sharp, clean, executed motions. Anyone can move an arm here or there but what makes the best thee best is their strong skill of motions. Think of the last cheerleading competition you saw on TV. Did it look like the girls were swimming the back stroke? NO. So why would you want to look any different? To truly look like the pros look you need to do one simple thing. Practice them correctly. In the mirror, in the shower, in your head, and believe me it will all pay off. Practicing these motions correctly will help to make these motions second nature instead of feeling like you're doing your homework. Now first things first. What are the proper placements? There are a few very simple rules to follow to have the proper motion placement. Learn them and you're one step closer to being a better cheerleader.
Proper Arm Placement
-Never bend or drop your wrists. They should always be level
and make a straight line with you arm in any motion you're
doing. Think of it as having a stick tied to your forearm.
with that stick tied there you can't bend your wrist can you?
-Do not over extend your arms. You should always have sight of
your arms at all times in your motions. Whether in a T
motion or High V. This is so from all views of you ( From
behind, side,or front) everyone can see the motion you are
doing.All eyes are on you even if your eyes aren't on them.
Let themsee how awesome your cheer really is. Even if you
aren't looking at them.
