CAN YOU SHARE WITH US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOUR JOURNEY AND HOW YOU GOT TO WHERE YOU ARE TODAY?
Two years ago, I fell off a waterfall and cracked my knee cap in half. I had to get two surgery’s and the recovery time was a whole year out of Cheer. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done but as soon as I was back I was better than ever. A year after the surgery we noticed my leg was giving me trouble and my knee kept popping out of place at practice. We asked the doctor but they said my knee healed perfectly so they didn’t know what was going on. I kept cheering and pushing through the pain.
Finally we went to a specialist and she said I needed surgery again because the doctor messed up a growth plate and my leg was 3 cm shorter then the other! I was so deviated because I knew this meant I would be out of cheer after all the hard work I went through to get my skills back. We decided to wait until the season was over to get the surgery. I kept pushing through the pain at practice and in classes because I wanted to make my dream team.

I pushed through tryouts and made my dream team ReignCats sr 5 at CheerAthletics. I went on to get my surgery and the recovery time was 8 months. There was no way I was waiting that long to cheer again. I went through recovery so fast, my doctor was shocked! I was back and cleared to cheer in less than four months. It was all because of CheerFit and the people who motivated me to keep going!
