You absolutely should start! Sure there are other girls who have been doing it for years, but now is the perfect time for YOU! I didn't start until I was in the 7th grade. I went on with cheerleading and poms thru the rest of my junior and senior high school years and my pom squad was the #1 squad for our pom competition. I was always popular, always had girlfriends to hang out with, and had to have good grades in order to maintain status on the squad. It was the ABSOLUTE BEST MEMORIES of those years. Trust me, your friend will be just as nervous as you are when you two try out. But just have fun with it, and you can't go wrong! Good luck to you and your friend!!!

I satrted when I was 5, but I know people who started there Sophomore year in High School who are better and know more than I am. So it realy dosen't matter when you start, as long as your felxible and WILLING to learn!

no not at all,tumbling is something that can be improved just like stunting.

I started when I was in the ninth grade and ended up bieng captain of my college cheerleading team. Some people are just naturals at it, defintaly try out and see what happens. You could be the next Dallas Cowgirl!!

i started when i was 5 and i am 10 now and i can do and roun off back tuck and i can do and roundoff back double front twist im not trying to brag or anything but u should just keep trying to improve and u should practice all of ur stuff like the roudoff and stuff liek that.Then
eventuly u will get it then u will be a dallas cowgirl thats my dream

duh you can do it anyone can!!!!!!!!!!!! start hope you get it....

well im in ninth grade now and im going to take tumble and cheer classes and try out next year...and in college i plan on cheering too . it doesnt matter how old you are @!!!! go forrr it !

ok.you are never to oldd to start.your age no way.just remember to strech before tumbling.have a mattresss or mats in-case you fall.and always have an expirenced friend help you.and if your skool has a JV team it would be better then going straight forward to competetive.butt i am 100% positive that if you work hard you will make it to a Varsity or Competetive team.
