Recent "Ask A Pro" questions

Below are the lastest questions we have recieved from our website. Thank you for all the questions and to Laura for answering them! Keep the questions coming by going to www.wecovercheer.com/Ask_A_Pro.html


Samantha in Nebraska:
I'm on a level 4 all star team in Nebraska and we're really good! Just last year we won Nationals down in South Dakota. I'm a junior in highschool and i've been on the varsity squad for two years now. My highschool is private so we can stunt and tumble, which are two things that I'm pretty strong in. I really wana continue cheering in college and I've been looking into colleges around and in Nebraska but I"m not aware of colleges around that have good cheer programs. I wana go to a school that has tumbling and stunting and who has a great cheer team but I don't know of any. Can you please help me out?

Many Nebraska colleges have recently become ground-bound, so that is a great question. I have heard great things about University of Nebraska-Omaha, which is one of the only Nebraska colleges that still allows stunting and tumbling. But don't be scared to look out of state! There are several schools within a short drive with nationally competitive cheer programs including Avila (Kansas City, MO), University of Kansas (Lawrence, KS), and Missouri Valley (Marshall, MO).

Kristin in Iowa:
What is a good song to do a cheer/dance routine to?

My favorite songs so far this year are Beyonce's "Single Ladies," Miley Cyrus "Fly on the Wall," Kevin Rudolf "Let It Rock" and Flo Rida/Will I Am "In the Ayer." Cheer music is usually a little more complicated, so I recommend buying pre-cut music. Two good sites are www.cheermusicstore.com and www.routinemixes.com.

  1. My best friend is on the cheerleading team for Kansas and they are awesome. Just my opinion.

  2. I think custom cheer music is the best kind of music to go to, I think. Having unique music in cheer can be vital in large competitions.
