[tcbylover444]

i'm trying out for cheerleading, this helped.

[foreverritaya]

Ok people, take a full eight count to do a toetouch. Its waaay cleaner and it looks better.

[polarbearslovemusic]

lets not point our toes!!!!

[bubbles1234345]

im trying out for cheer this year and this was very helpful!!!(:

[sharebear3117]

helpful thanks!!!!



[reesyluvsu2]

okay i think u can count anyway u want to but then again most jumps are to a count of 8. im not even a cheerleader and i no that but then again i could be wrong...nice video though! i found a new stretch to do! Hope I make my team!!!

[Qlover555]

Dork its 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 eight counts

[Ameee194]

Toe Touch*

[Ameee194]

DDD: it's all wrong !! When doing a touch touch , herkie , ect. You put your hands together at 1 , 2 Then 3 , 4 High V then 5, 6 Jump and 7 , 8 Clean . And with the kicks you don't have a high V while kicking , doing that is a nice way to pop out your shoulder ;) You have your arms in a T - position then starts the kicks. Jeez , bad example D:

[051197luzy]

i wish i could be a cheerleader im very shy and didnt even ask for try outs or anything so i had my boyfriend do it for me and finally when i grew lady balls they said it was tooo tooo late to try next year and now i cry every time i see cheerleaders at the games. but that dosnt mean i can pretend to be one=)=

and practice

[Jayhawkgirl98]

[amazingstargazing]

POINT. YOUR. TOES.

[liaxx10]

WTF THIS IS NOT CHEERLEADING. try allstars bitches.

[dancesweater]

That was quite the OPPOSITE of a toe touch at least the count was

[AlexRenae2]

thats the worst way to do a toe touch. you guys are very lame!

[PinkZebracorn]

We do our prep differently.

[dancergirljvl]

srry but that was bad

[imbea31]

[talkedupwithcp]

@TheJenChannel How dare you!

[gopeak1999]

[bribaby1974]

thatwas not good

[129canada]

every time jusmp my musles hurt there like getting pulled and they hutt waht you do

[Iloveyouily3]

@129canada you're probably not stretching enough before your jumps. just do about five or so minutes of stretching before you do your jumps, and it'll stop hurting :)

[MrCrazycatgirl]

CHerleaders dont really do kicks any more..thats kinda of called dancers now.

[BabydollBootz]

Worst jump I've ever seen.

[l0v3rsuck]

Not a very high jump! Loser! I'm not a cheerleader and I can kick and jump better than u!

[BabydollBootz]

@l0v3rsuck Hahaha same here and I agree and I bet you can(:

[l0v3rsuck]

@BabydollBootz XD glad some1 agree w/ me. im not trying 2 be a bitch but seriously! her jump and kick aint very good 4 a cheerleader.

[BabydollBootz]

[tech4156]

just something to wank over

[aliyahrennz13]

i think people say cheerleading isnt a sport because after college there really isnt a cheerleading team for 30 year olds, and every other sport you do till you retire or get a broken bone and cant.

I'm trying out to be a cheerleader, and these videos from @expertvillage have been really helpful.

[alexisheartsmyhair]

well me best friend is a cheerleader and all she talkes about is cheerleading and i cant do cheer leading cuz i am in gynmastics so i dont know what to do

[lollyandpopshow]

no offense... but good try on the jumps but we use a diffrent count NCA does it diffrent on 6 you are spossed to hit your jump not on 3!

[naomicatk]

hey lese my youtube on naomicatk channel

[TheUltimateAbbey]

Your really good at explaining and doing it :D

[corthale1]

no offense, but your jumps are sloppy.

[ForeverOurWorld]

im trying out for my JV cheer team and im really nervous B/c i have never cheered before i can do a toe touch, a herkie, splits, backhandsprings (double & roundoffbackhandsprings as well as standing) I can also so a heelstretch bow and arrow, scorpion,arebesque,and scale. SHould I practice anything else?? DO you thinki will make it

[electronicsgirl1]

@ForeverOurWorld

All the things you said you'll get on the team , you'll probably be the best one there

[ForeverOurWorld]

@electronicsgirl1 aw thank youu!! I have ok jumps they arent amazing but im mainly nervous b/c i have never actually cheered for a teaam before , i only know this stuff b/c im a dancer and gymnast but i have been practicing like crazy so I hope I make itt on the teaam!

[Jackdasnowmane]

[togapartychica645]

[SaVaNnARaWrS4U]

:O she had a cord coming from her BACK! ROBOT CHEERLEADER! D:

[95Someone95]

thanks for posting <3 =)

[hotpinkcec240]

point ur toes

[dragonrider3216]

That one person os right u should point ur toes lol

[coleyoko94]

im a junior in highschool, i want to be a cheerleader really badly but i dont have any training. the school year has already started so i think ill have to try out next year when i am a senior. is that too late? i dont know any flips or things. PLEASE help me with advice!

[xDiamondStarx3]

@coleyoko94 no, I don't think so, just start practicing..!! do some excersises for flexibility and start with simple things like split, kicks all those things and then move to back handspring, front flip, back flip ( btw with the help of a professional)

[izzyemimz97lol]

point your toes!

[luluret]

Thanks for these videos I wanted to be a cheerleader since I was young but I never had the guts too but this year I'm going to go for it! :D

[TheExtraCullen]

PLEAS!! remove the text!!! it's too much and I can't see a s''t of what your doing!!

[weetota]

i noticed all schools are quite different. at ours we do a clasp on 1, lift it up on 2, bring it down on 3(and bend our knees) jump on 4, land on 5(head down) hold for 6, and do a pony flip for 7,8.

[hahahaGals]

pressing f5 will stop comercials ;)

[PopularKeys]

@hahahaGals Were not Retarded It reloads the page stupid

[Cheerleadersrock13]

@mileysrockingirl you shouldn´t b afraid, other cheerleaders don´t usally laugh at u if u fall they know how you feel, and most of the times your teammates wil be there to catch u u just gotta trust yourself and your team

[bokxybabee]

hmm stretches should be for over a minute not just 5 seconds.. but you probably shortened for the video. might be worht mention though idk

[Kaoz121212]

Oh I wish that something would help me. I haven't cheerleaded(?) a day in my life and I have tryouts in 4 days. I'm not even that great at a toe touch and I really want to be a cheerleader this year. Any advice for someone whose starting out in a couple days with no practice?

[icecreamblondie1]

@Kaoz121212 Girlll, (well i hope yer a girl, if not ...sorry) I was the same way. At most schools though, they take a few days for practice and prep for the ACTUAL tryouts. It's not like "bim bam boom, you have to come up with a routine". nahh, they teach you a floor cheer and your jumps so you get a little more expirianced. then you have to perform (idk, some schools are diff) your jumps the floor cheer and two or more bbal or football cheers. so yeah. don't sweat it:D hope i helped at all!(:

[MrsAlexanderWilliam]

@mileysrockingirl i would advise you to take a summer gymnastics program. i was having the same fears as you, because i am really serious about cheer but havent taken a day of gymnastics till last week, and i already see myself improving.

so my advice is that if you are really serious, take summer gymnastics and if you dont make it, keep working on your gymnastics and try out next year[:

[CheerLoverJess]

omg i luv ur uniforms and great toe touchs

[Misscici2011]

She didnt point her toes =)

[WhiteAngel234]

@Misscici2011  haha i know . i saw that .

[fabulous012097]

:) Thanks for posting

[LadyDiamond33]

this is really helped im an upcoming cheerleader for high school and im really scared i dont know what i need to know or do can soemone give me pointers:(

[xxmoviemagicmakerxx]

@LadyDiamond33 cheerleaders aren't scared they are confident and they own it! so like get some confidence..fast

[kayy2p]

umm what are more streaches to achieve the splits && jumps.?

[Glampie1]

How you gone try to teaCh something and barelii kno how to do it yourSellf who Cheer coachin you Cuz dey need to Give it up

[holycrap2221]

these people suck

[idinakristinwicked]

point your toes when you kick and jump

[zjhbff]

gaah.... stupid chermicials

[ashmillz01]

one, you have to point your toes ;

two, for every jump, every move has TWO counts .

for example - FIRST YOU CLAP which is 1,2 . high V is 3,4 . when you bring your arms down its 5,6 . then when you do the jump its 7,8 .

oh yea & DONT STAND ON YOUR TOES ! ITS BAD FOR YOUR ANKLES .

[lindseyklol]

thanks! i started cheer today and we did our jumps and i got so confused. this helped a ton! :]]

[Fashion4Dummies]

i love cheerleading cool vid except i was told to never go on my toes...

[Jasminee2796]

i thought you clasp on one...

 and point your toes

[emi104ify]

don't u start with a clasp

[icheer4life16]

i hope this will help me for cheer tryouts :]

[Missbrittbritt21]

we do 1 high v hold on 2, 3 we go down and cross then 4nwe jump then we clean

[19bby901]

arent they supose to point their toes for the kick?

[kekemimi99]

@19bby901 I was gonna say: "is it just me, or did she forget to point her toes..." but when i point things out... people call me an ass.

[theBookwormButterfly]

we hit the high V on 1, on our toes on 2, cross on 3, jump on 4, land on 5, stand on 6, hold on 7, and clap on 8.

[AuddieDivine]

...oh FML.

I got dared to try out for my high school cheerleading team. >.> Look how "emo" I look. This shit will never work.....fuck

[simoneiscoolio1]

we hit our high vs on 3 clap 1,2 high v 3,4 cross and jump on 5,6 and land and clean on 7,8

it would be helpfull to teach them more about streching you cant just do a m sit and expect to go high no wonder you guys dont jump as high

[livliv1996]

yeah thats how i was taught

[XxchimpanzeexX]

on the toe touch how do you get your jumps high? mine suck so bad i can only get up like a foot or a bit more in the air. each foot is tht high up :'(

[simoneiscoolio1]

you need to strech you have to sit down and spred your leggs to the side as far as posible then when your leggs are spred you put your arms foward and touch the ground and reach as far as you can that will get them higher and be sharp and point toes :)

[SpcMasseysWifey]

can i be a cheerleader even if im 21? am i too old? LOL=)

[simoneiscoolio1]

yeah you can but you need to go to an eleate team

[sosexyshata]

U GUYS SUCK

[Emilyisamazing2202]

haha you dont do high V's. You guys suck.

[Lana2015]

you should explain more..and how do you do your jumps so high?

[imsprung1234]

itz aiight bt we do r jumps on 4 not 3..

[imsoawsm0]

That toe touch was horrid....and who hits a toe on 3? Im pretty sure it's on 4....

[saracalovex3]

We hit ours on 6...

[kellymatt00]

For cheerleading uniforms see Cheer Etc.

you can design your own uniforms, or do anything you want. They have fast delivery & great prices. Cheerleading warm ups, poms, shoes & Mascot costumes too.

[naty51287]

luv yur videos! i'm from brasil, and we dont have cheerleading as u guys!! luv it!!!

i'm practicing with u, just 4 fun!

[CarrieUFan94]

It's not that bad but it's got bad lighting...:-\

[cheerleadersx3]

CINAMON ROOLZ. AHAHAHAH

[tokyoiskool]

isent 5678&12345678? hmmm

[caitroxx123]

nice job

[d3n1sha]

well i go by the NCA counts point your toes sweetie and snap those legs together on the landing!!!

[dscc154]

uuuummmmm sorryyyyyyyy im a cheerleader and the counts for jumps are 567812345678 NOT 12345!!!!! get it right!!!!!!

[cuteme5619]

its depends on sum team get that rite!

[TheSanchez25]

retards you cant cheer lead  5678 who is dumb and lame you guys

[ScorpionallstarFlyer]

the counts are 567812345578 retards learn ok

[roxxyrox00]

ok Shinobazu donut holes are the same thing as cinnamon rolls stupid

[Shinobazu]

i thought they were called donut holes."cinnamon rolls"?????

what type of cheerleader are these????

[hiixlaurx3]

the counts for jumps are 567812345678. retards. expertvillage my ass.

[matlock38]

Uh next time do it a lil higher,

But Good Job.(:

[cheerleader051]

crap toe touch!

feet werent pointed"

and ur high kick wasnt very high!

[xxriahxxbear711]

ya it is a sport. and i get hit in the head and sat on by my flyer when shes trying to do basket toe touches. and when we are working on our double.

[xtwilightcrocodile]

Cheerleading isnt easy if your a base people tend to kick you alot I would know

[tessbo94]

you should put the workouts on how to get higher also... like kick outs. and ab workouts.... also stretching more! but this was good

[3jonasbrothersforev]

you know this is kind of crazy but the form and technique is more important than how high the jump is!

[BrittanyMcGee93]

Cheerleadin aint easy 4 everybody who say it is try it....you wouldnt make it a week.........But about this video tht girl toe touch was horrible and tht other girl's voice is annoying as hell

[nicoleM7677]

sorrry this didnt help me

[xxthx4thehelp]

It may surprise you but the steps are more imporant than the jump. You need to make sure that your arms are firm and legs are straight. You can sill have a low jump and get on the team!

[TheLipcious]

Ur so right littlemisscheer u go girl (*~Cheerleaders-ROCK~*)

[Mizzalyssa09]

You arent supposed to go on your toes once you prep.... and you are supposed to be a teaching...

[ohmyyjess]

cheerleading is a lot of hard work. and it is a sport.

[bloodfly3]

@ohmyyjess No it isn't.. cheerleaders serve no purpose besides eye candy. Face the facts.

[EnchantedDaphodilly]

@bloodfly3 um you obviously havent tried cheering, your probably jsut the stupid quarterback arent you?

[KyraFiresphere]

I don't know about anybody else, but I was always told to NEVER go on my toes before a jump.

[bubbleydancer9]

what my squad does is we go on our toes on a half count then drop down again then do the jump....

[XxMoniePhoePhyvexX]

@KyraFiresphere me too

[indianchica934]

honestly, who does kicks in their routine?

[LilMissCheerx3]

every cheerleader out there. we do them in EVERY routine.

[bubbleydancer9]

yes! yes we do!

[funkykara14]

wow. the below comments are actually kind of sad. the truth is that cheerleaders are their to cheer on their team and get the audience involved with the game. not just people that are put in a uniform to jump around and be starred at. there is so much more to us then what we wear, and just what you see. i would love for people to see what really goes on behind the scenes.

[gymnasticslover24]

this is soo true cheerleading is not just girls showing off its a sport that is very hard and takes skillzz

[Achilles741]

where are the tits

[ImSexyInHollistr]

wow counts are totally wrong..

[luv2cheer6]

do you guys know what your talking about...maybe you should let real cheerleader cover the basics

[laxQT]

um just soall of yall who keep saying they are doin the counts wrong ..people do diffrent counts on toetouches

[LiveLaughLove0103]

wow thats stupid point ur toes and it is a sport and no one forget that

[Gatorvscheer13]

accually ppl forget to point you toes all the time. when we do our jumps our choach always says rember to point you toes

[vvalerylove]

1.Cheerleading takes PLENTY of heart.

2.You DO have to be able to take hours of yelling and screaming. You are an idiot if you don't know that.

3.Girls are heavier than softballs. And they come twice at fast at you and you have to CATCH them. No way to remember what to do that quick.

4.There really isn't such thing as muscle memory. It's all skill.

5.If you tried doing half the stuff we do, you would probably die. Literally.

6. Cheerleading is a sport now and forever.

[996simsgirl]

i have all that but the problem is flipping and splits

[iLuffYhew]

when i first got my splits my friend said that if i hold myself for 1 or more minutes then your muscle remembers the thing and shes a gymnast

[meowmix736]

amen.

to many people think its super easy but it takes skill and practice and we pour our heat and soul into everything we do.

its not anything like the movies make it seem.

[kayy2p]

@vvalerylove thats deeep,(:

[giggidy87]

@vvalerylove "there really isnt such thing as muscle memory"... there isnt a sport in the world that doesnt require muscle memory.

[iSmile4Yu]

Point yur toes....Do you guys really know what to do?? Just askingg.

[videoqueen55]

is that really all the stretching u do b4 u cheer...idts...

[xLindsey777MCRx]

For some reason I can't do either.

[cheerleadinglady]

this isnt the way cheer jumps r done, clap:1,2 high v: 3,4 swing into jump during 5,6, 7 and 8, this is all wrong, not so expert guys!
