High V, Low V, T, Touch down, herkie, pike, herdlers, toe touches. You should master each of these before you try out. Here’s a website you may want to look at. It describes the moves better.

I need to learn to fly on a guy for tryout at my college, and am in search of a male to help out. I cheer currently in shelby twp. on an all-star team, but the guys at my gym are little. I’m kind of at a loss of where to search for the oh so scarce males in the cheerleading world.

Can i become a cheerleader without knowing any basic stunts?

Question by Sweetie Pie: Can i become a cheerleader without knowing any basic stunts?
i know this is a stupid question but i cant cartwheel do the splits and obviously i cant toe touch
is there anyway i can learn these in a short period of time if not?

Best answer:

Answer by Madeline B.
Well it depends what kind of cheerleader you want to be . If its like middles school that’s easy , you do have to know how to do a cartwheel splits and toe touches . Cartwheels are easy you can learn to do those in a day basically . Toe touches you can learn on a trampoline if you know to do a split , even easier , but you don’t ( that’s okay ) get a friend whose a gymnast or cheerleader they’ll help you in a week at least . High school or competition on the other hand , harder. Join a gymnastic gym or something like that they’ll help you in months . Or go with your friends option . Like that MTV movie Made . Hope that helped ! (:

i’m a complete newbie to cheerleading, so idk if this is a stupid question. what do male cheerleaders do? are there specific names/terms for what they do? thanks in advance!

Answer by chantelrocks
http://cheerleading.about.com/cs/cheers/… here is a great web site for you to look at.

It not only has cheers on it that you can use, but it has some great links that you can visit to find other cheer moves.

Many cheerleaders call moves by different names, so it may be a little hard to answers.

Star jump, pike, toe touch, hurdler, pencil, left herkie, right herkie, table top. are just some jumps

Thankyou 🙂

Answer by paraflymore
a good cartwheel and roundoff, and upper body strength so you can learn a back hand spring and back tuck, and so you can hold up other girls at the base.

What are some basic cheerleading stunts i can do with some friends?

Question by ~♥_to_cheer~: What are some basic cheerleading stunts i can do with some friends?
im going to my friends this weekend (to practice some cheerleading) and theres going to be like 5 of us maybe. im usually the flyer because im the shortest and the lightest. nothing dangerous (tryouts are next week) or too hard please (were only in middle school) thanks a lot!!!

Best answer:

Answer by Victoria
Hi! try doing basic stunts like thigh stands. Don’t go past a prep especially if there isn’t a coach there with you. I would say that the most dangerous for u to do is a cradle. Make sure to have the basics….two bases one flyer one back and one spotter/front. As long as everyone has cheerleading experience i would say you would be fine. Good luck and have fun 🙂

edit: ok so i just saw on your other post that none of you are cheerleaders! DONT STUNT!! ok so maybe a thigh stand is ok…but nothing more it is extremely dangerous. Instead…stretch and practice jumps. practice cheering and having sharp movements. practice dancing. change of plans! lol 🙂
