WHY CHOOSE CHEERLEADING?
Cheerleading is a recognised sport using organised routines made up from elements of tumbling, dance, jumps and cheers.
Used professionally to encourage spectators of events to cheer on sports teams at games or matches, but widely used to encourage children to keep fit through dance and acrobatics.
Cheerleading originates from the United States and remains a predominantly American activity, with an estimated 1.5 million participants in allstar cheerleading, not including the millions more in middle school, high school, college, professional, or little league participants.
The growing presentation of the sport to a global audience has been led by the 1997 start of broadcasts of cheerleading competition by ESPN International and the worldwide release of the 2000 film Bring It On and more recently High School Musical.
