Cheer and Dance Fundamentals

Athletes learn the fundamentals of cheerleading and dance. Coaches teach the technical elements of motions, jumps, stunts, and dance routines. Athletes may advance to a higher level by aging up or by testing their skills. Coaches hold tryouts each season to evaluate each athlete’s skills and knowledge.

Cheer Competitions and Special Events

Each semester, a team will practice and perform at least one full routine for parents and at competitions. CFA competitions are held at the regional, state, and national levels. While these events aren’t mandatory for Recreational levels they are highly encouraged. Competitions offer athletes a chance to demonstrate their skills, to learn determination, and develop self-esteem. CFA also hosts cheerleading clinics and camps, and participates in special events like parades.

Cheerleading Program Information

Our Cheer program is divided into divisions. Divisions 1-4 are considered Recreational Levels and are perfect for beginners and younger athletes.

About Cheerleading Coaches

Every cheerleading coach is chosen for their love of the sport as well as their passion for working with young athletes. Our coaches are trained and mentored by CFA staff and are certified in ACCAA stunting to ensure they are teaching proper skill progressions and safe stunting techniques. All Elite Level coaches (Divisions 5-8) are credentialed by the U.S. All Star Federation in the levels in which they coach.
