“You must have the passion, strength, and belief that you can become anything.”

CHEERFIT AMBASSADOR FEATURE: ALAHNI NAPIER

The CHEERFIT ambassador community is filled with leaders and motivators who all share a passion for fitness, love for cheering and drive to help inspire others.

Our ambassadors share with us their personal stories and obstacles they overcome along the way. We have an amazing community of athletes who fuel their passion and determination with the CHEERFIT lifestyle.

This week, we meet Alahni, an all-star cheerleader and honor student who tells us about the pressures of being an athlete, but reminds us just how much of a confidence builder our teammates are!

We are excited to share with you our ‘Ambassador of the Week Feature’ with Alahni Napier!

CAN YOU SHARE WITH US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOUR JOURNEY AND HOW YOU GOT TO WHERE YOU ARE TODAY?

I have been a part of the all-star cheer world for 6 years now. I have experienced more ups than downs, but the downs are what almost caused me to walk away from a sport I truly love.

I went through an entire season where at the end I lost almost all confidence in myself. The pressure to be perfect was one that I felt from other athletes, but also within. It was a tough decision, but I chose to restart and find myself, by relocating to a new gym. You see, I learned that bullying isn’t always verbal or physical, it can be mental too. Clicks, blame, shame – it tears confidence down. It is important to always support and uplift our teammates.


That is what makes us better.


Athletes train hard and we compete hard, but we may not always place 1st. It is only when we learn to accept that our best efforts are worth far more than a trophy that we truly win.

– CHEERFIT Ambassador Alahni Napier

ARE YOU INVOLVED IN ANY VOLUNTEER OR NONPROFIT AND HOW DO YOU MOTIVATE OTHERS?

I am always looking for different ways to be active in my community. I am a member of nonprofit organizations and do what I can as far as donating to charity. I have run a couple of different drives including a “Smile Drive” that I am most proud of. In October, was able to collect and donate dental hygiene supplies to my local YWCA and the experience was great! I have also run a “Warmer Winter” drive where I collected hats/scarves/gloves for the homeless and have plans to do so much more.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS: 

I have participated in the Summit 3 years in a row, obtained my full and so much more in the cheer world. But my greatest accomplishment would be my academics. I am in honors classes and maintain an A average. While I’m only in 6th grade, I am currently working at an 8th grade level.

HOW HAS BEING AN AMBASSADOR HELPED YOU?

Being an ambassador has definitely helped me to stay motivated, but it’s also helped me to motivate and encourage others along the way.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PART ABOUT BEING A CHEERFIT AMBASSADOR?

I enjoy getting to know other athletes more than anything and CHEERFIT has introduced me to so many different people. It’s awesome to be a part of a group that includes so many others who enjoy being healthy and strong like I do!

WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO TELL OTHER PEOPLE WHO HOPE TO BECOME A CHEERFIT AMBASSADOR?

If you want to be a part of a group where everyone is focused on the same goal of being positive, encouraging, and the best they can be both mentally and physically – then CHEERFIT is for you!
