More About Coach Melissa
Hi, there! My name is Melissa Pruitt and I can't wait to meet you! I've been teaching private Cheer and Tumble lessons since 2008 and have loved helping my athletes succeed in making junior high, varsity, and All-Star cheerleading teams. I find the greatest joy in watching athletes advance their tumbling skills, and overcome fears of performing and mental blocks. I graduated Lindale High School 2004 and am currently credentialed in Levels 1-3 tumble and stunt safety and skill progression and am a Professional Member of the United States All-Star Federation. I am a straight forward and honest coach, and my teaching style is structured, yet fun, and most importantly focusing on positive mental health techniques to build confidence. I look forward to helping you and/or your cheerleader reach their goals and improve skills!
I was a cheerleader at Lindale High School from 2000-2003, and took a break from cheerleading due to injury focusing in college to earn my associates in arts and science degree. I have recently (2012) returned to my love of cheerleading as an All-Star cheer gym owner and coach, judge, and event manager for Varsity.
New athletes will undergo a physical assessment in flexibility, stamina, muscle strength, voice projection, technique, and attitude/personality awareness. From here I create a personalized fitness plan and agenda to be not only practiced during sessions, but applied at home as well. Practice excercises to improve jumps, motions, judge presence, group tryout technique, dance, chant, individual routines, and tumbling skills will all be incorporated into each athletes lessons, according to client preference and coach evaluation.

Client Reviews
Kristi (CoachUp client)
She is the BEST!! She has turned my 13 year old into a confident, prepared young lady. She is trying out for cheerleader and I am amazed at the progress. Melissa 'other moms' and coaches like a life-long pro. We are thankful for her and plan to work with her for many years!
Heather (CoachUp client)
Coach Melissa was great with my daughter. In just one session she was able to get my daughter to face her fears and build up her confidence. She seemed very knowledgeable of the sport and how to work with kids. My daughter responded much better to working with her than other coaches we have used in the past. We will definitely book more sessions.
Mary P. (Testimonial)
Coach Melissa really knows how to train not only skills but helped my daughter gain the self confidence to shine at her try-out!
