Practice and stretching are the only ways that you will get better. There is no short cut. Put forth the effort and you will see improvement.

Are you a good when remembering moves to a cheer? You should YouTube different cheer routines and memorize them so during tryouts you can show off while you "warm up".

I was a cheerleader in High School - funny, but I was a horrible dancer, good at the gymnastic stuff, but a horrible dancer.

Stretching and practicing is always a great thing to do to get better. You can also do some Yoga and Pilates to keep you limber.

Good luck. Enjoy. Have fun. Be positive.

Beee Aggressive Be Be Aggressiveee!

V-snaps, leg lifts are good. Don't look at the floor while you jump and always point your toes and smile. Cheerleading isn't all about jumping and dancing. You should be lifting weights to increase you strenght! Good luck
