CAN YOU SHARE WITH US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOUR JOURNEY AND HOW YOU GOT TO WHERE YOU ARE TODAY?
I have been cheering for about 9 years now. I’ve over come many things during those 9 years. I’m the type of cheerleader who lets myself get hurt rather then any of my team mates.
I’ve had 4 concussions, a pulled MCL and two broken fingers. Right now I’m battling a bruised elbow, but I can still cheer. Those injuries made it hard but I never gave up on cheer and I’m glad I didn’t. I cheer for my cousin Gavin who battles brain cancer at the age of 8. I even gave him a National Champion jacket I won three years ago, when he was taken to the hospital while I was at the National competition. All the injuries and bad things that have happened have set me back but I continue to push.
Without fitness I would not be the cheerleader I am today š
I’ve learned that cheerleading is a great way to just forget about everything that is happening and to take time for myself.
