Cheerleading is one of the the fastest growing sports in the world and was recently announced as a provisional sport in the upcoming Olympics!

Our mission is to positively impact the lives of cheerleaders at all ages and ability levels. Our Cheer squad focuses on gymnastics, acrobatics, athletic dance and stunts – a true hybrid sport – cheerleading develops an athletes’ strength, flexibility, coordination, and stamina.
