I am a Cheer Tumbling Coordinator for an All Star Gym in Westwood, MA

I train athletes up to age 18 and have spotted adults as well, I can spot any tumbling from standing to running, front rolls to fulls.

I have been a Cheer coach for any levels including youth leagues and also all stars.

I have cheered for 8 years and love the sport so much that I was unable to stop after attending high school and unfortunately my college team was not challenging enough for me. I have competed as a youth league, high school, all star and also collegiate cheerleader. I have been awarded many leadership awards and have also grown in my All Star gym from a coach to a coordinator of tumbling in the gym overall including making schedules, evaluating skill level. I also own my own cheer appeal buisness that fundraiser money to help pay for my college fees and tuition. It's covers everything from bow to toe your cheerleader will love.

Training an athlete with me is not only building their skills but their confidence as well. I am crucial when it comes to the building blocks of tumbling meaning condition to learn and perfect skills as well as overall body shape. A normal class with me would include stretching. Then a warm up based off of skill being taught during that session. For example a warm up for back handspring entails running laps, straight jumps, lunges, handstand drills, back walkover, front walkover, cartwheels, and round offs. After warming up I go over stations to break down the overall skill and correct body position. Once I feel the athlete is properly ready to throw I spot and give advice on how to perfect and obtain the skill. After working on the skill, I work conditioning for the skill and home conditioning they should keep up on. I also send videos and talk to the parents about the plan, and conditioning I want to take and the things the athlete need to work on to perfect the skill. I am very parent envolved as a coach because they are he support and coach at home while I am not avaliable.
