Cheerleading was invented by a man in 1898, who first directed a crowd in cheering on the University of Minnesota. Since then, cheerleading has become a popular culture phenomenon and a sport. Cheerleaders began as male, but slowly females, who had few offerings for collegiate-level athletics, dominated the hobby. In the early 1970s, the Dallas Cowgirls changed professional cheerleading into simply dance, removing most of the stunts and tumbling in favor of revealing outfits and choreography. In the early 1980s, cheerleading as a competitive sport became popular, and stunts and gymnastics gained in popularity for high school teams. Now there are many official styles of cheering, both amateur and pro, and local spins.

In this free video series on cheerleading tips for tumbling and jumping, expert cheerleader and instructor Lucy Spain shows you it all! You will learn stretches, exercises, and tips for having the best jumps and gymnastics in your routine. Lucy explains pike, herkies, tucks, toe touches, and more. You will learn about difficulty levels in cheerleading, how to implement cartwheels, back handsprings, round offs, and more into combos. Lucy also covers spotting. Cheer on, brave soldiers!
