All CheerSPORT classes start with a circle in where coaches empower their athletes with a life lesson and the day’s goals. Athletes are engaged in a fun all body warm-up sequence before their coaches help them to learn and perfect the lifts and tumbling skills that form part of their routine. At the end of the session, athletes will put the parts of the routine they have learnt together and practice performing it to a track of popular music. Athletes will also work their way through the Grades in our exclusive All Star Syllabus.
