    Stunts for young cheerleaders
    I reciently started teaching a cheerleading class at my dance school. My school county is ground bound so we can't stunt. Does any body have any ideas of some stunt I can use for cheerleaders who vary in ages from 6-11? Age 6 being flyers? :confused::confused:

    Are you guys able to do thigh stands? There is also a cute semi-stunt that takes 3 three girls; the flyer holds the shoulders of the base while the spotter holds one of the legs of the flyer. The flyers toes should be pointed and the other leg held up.

    Yes we are able to do any stunts at the dance school. My high school is ground bound so I have no idea about any types of stunts. These young cheerleaders are able to do any forms of stunts.

    Ok I understand your question more clearly now! Alrighty then, they could probably start with thigh stands and should sits. Once beginner stunts are mastered you could move on to elevators, shoulders stands, etc. How advanced are they?

    Some are more advanced than others. Some can already do basket tosses but not from a full extension. And I have one young girl who is afraid of heights. I also have a boy cheerleader who is about 11 and fairly strong. So it's somewhat of a variety.

    Im thinking you're probably a little better now that its be een a while, But Like you can do one legs but at half extensions, have the flyers pull positions in halfs

    You could always do a half or a thigh stand- try them in a thigh stand on 1 foot - lots of mini teams do those- try basket tosses - they probably won't get them thst high yet but they're cute... and maybe if they have enough balance try them standing on one foot in a half(half lib)
