Hey, tryouts for my Highschool cheer squad is coming up in less than 2 months. I've been cheering since like 4th grade, but I can't do my backhandspring without a spot yet, and i recently tried my jumps and well.... They kinda suck. It's NOT a flexibility thing. I can do my scorpion, my right split, I don't have my middle split, but it's not super unflexible, its just not on the floor. I want my backhandspring! I'm in tumbling class, but last yr I got a concussion from a stunting incident... and turns out i had some brain trauma that was preventing me from flipping. So I've been going to a counselor and she's performed something called EMDR which helps you dig deep and clear trauma. So that's helped A LOT so I guess it's possible to get it. But I only go to tumbling class once a week, its all i can afford... And i cant practice at home, no trampoline, and no one who knows how to spot.. I'm good at learning cheers and dances, no problem there, i have great motions, i smile constantly, ive got a really good personality, im in good shape, and i've got energy! Do I have a chance? Despite the jumps and tumbling? Any advice? Thanks ya'll!
Cheer tryouts!?!?!?!?!?
