Cheerleading can be a fun and engaging way for kids to stay active, but it also has many physical and social benefits. It can help improve cardiovascular fitness and build coordination, while it teaches kids how to be leaders and work as a team. It can also boost confidence and self-esteem.
If your child is interested in cheerleading, it’s important to consider their age and emotional maturity. Kids as young as 3 or 4 can start tumbling classes, which will teach them basic gymnastics moves like cartwheels and round-offs. Once they’re old enough and have the maturity, they can then move on to more advanced classes, such as stunting or choreography.
Stunting is an activity that involves lifting and throwing partners into the air, which requires strength, coordination, and trust. Dance and choreography are also important components of cheerleading, and they can help children develop rhythm and the ability to learn and remember steps. Jumps are also a key element of cheerleading, and they require coordination and strength.
One Raleigh cheerleading program is offering virtual training through Zoom to give their athletes a sense of normalcy. The owners of the club, Cheer Extreme Raleigh, say that they’re using this method because they want to ensure that their athletes are safe and can continue to train as usual. They also want to make sure that their athletes are ready for squad tryouts when the time comes. Celebrities, such as Kylie Jenner, Sandra Bullock, Blake Lively, and Miley Cyrus, have all said that cheerleading was an important part of their youth.
