cheerleading


When I was a high school student, I belonged to cheerleading club, TITANS.
Do you know cheerleading?
Maybe most people think that cheerleading is only dancing sport but it is incorrect!!
The main activity of cheerleading is stunts like group exercises.

The picture on the right is stunts.
It's called "Extension".
Stunts have 3 positions.
A person on the top is called "Top".
I was this position, when I was in cheerleading club.
Her job is to pose, jump and balance.
Two person on the bottom are called "Base".
They support top's feet and have to get along very well each other.
A person in behind is called "Spotter".
Her job is to support top's waist and order what to do next.
Stunts is composed by these positions and all position need for cheerleading to accomplish stunt.
At first sight, cheerleading is easy sport but actually it needs muscles, strength and smiles all the time.
Anyway it's very hard sport!!
When I belonged to cheerleading club, I had a difficult time acquiring skills.
However cheerleading is very enjoyable sport at least it's the most enjoyable sport for me.
