Bianca truly rocks the CHEERFIT Ambassador lifestyle – in every sense of the word! We are so inspired by Bianca that we checked in with her to hear what has helped her transform.

BIANCA SHARES…

“Okay everyone, I just want to tell you my story. I started CHEERFIT a little while ago and couldn’t do a back handspring. I started watching and working out with Danielle and doing the Ambassador extras. Because of this, I am happy to announce that I am stronger, more fit, and can now do 3 back handsprings in a row. I love CHEERFIT because they answer questions, listen to what you want to see more of, and in general are always there to help you succeed. The CHEERFIT company is amazing and has helped me so much! I’ve noticed a huge improvement in my abilities since joining and working out using their videos and I am proud of all that I have recently accomplished

I would say the biggest things that really helped me transform are the weekly workouts, CHEERFIT TV, and workout parties! I love the workouts specific to cheerleaders and having Danielle and the CHEERFIT Community with me every step of the way! “.

CHEERFIT AMBASSADOR FEATURE: SHILOH DENTON

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.

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

I am Shiloh Denton. I am eleven years old. I cheer for the basketball team at Valley View Elementary. I cheer for the Bradley Youth football team. I also cheered for Cheer Madness Elite Diamonds. We took second and third place this past season. We also made it in Club Zero. At the age of two, I started experiencing chronic pain in my legs, arms, and head. I have seen eight different doctors, undergone countless tests. Nobody has been able to give me a real diagnosis to date other than arthralgia. 


I refuse to let the pain determine who I am.


The pain is so severe at times that it keeps me up at night. I have gone through many different types of therapy in which none of them helped. I refuse to let the pain determine who I am. I push through the pain in order to do what I love which is cheer. My goal is to work with my coach David Pendergrass to develop my tumbling skills for the senior team.

– CHEERFIT Ambassador Shiloh Denton

WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS?:

I finally broke through my mental block during back hand springs!!! I used to need to see my coach or at least hear his voice. I was scared to try it by myself at home. But my Mother believed in me and she pushed me. She made me do 10-15 at home by myself every night until I broke the mental block. Now, I can do them with confidence. I just got my round off back hand spring and now I’m connecting toe touches to the back hand spring.

Other accomplishments include being named fastest girl in my school last year. I intend on trying out for cheer and track when I enter middle school. I was inducted into their junior beta club and was the only 4th-grade girl chosen. I took third place at the state Beta Convention in Nashville Tennessee and I have been chosen for the leadership award at school for three years in a row. I recently volunteered at the Special Olympics and I helped cheer on the athletes : )

HOW HAS BEING AN AMBASSADOR HELPED YOU REACH YOUR GOALS?

I love being a CHEERFIT Ambassador Elite. I love meeting cheerleaders from all over. Their stories of triumph give me the determination to keep trying to be my best. Hearing that others also deal with mental blocks encourages me to never give up. The CHEERFIT community is a wonderful community to be a part of.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PART ABOUT BEING A CHEERFIT AMBASSADOR?

My favorite part of being an ambassador is the sense of belonging. Belonging to a family of cheerleaders that all have the same goals – to better themselves and to encourage others.

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

Becoming an ambassador will strengthen your interaction with others. The sense of pride of belonging to a community with one mind, and the same goals is refreshing. If, your having a particularly bad day, you can read the success stories of your cheer family and it will give you the strength to carry on.

WHAT ARE 3 THINGS ALWAYS IN YOUR CHEER BAG?

CHEER shoes, hair accessories and bright red lipstick!

FAVORITE SONG TO JAM OUT TO DURING A SWEAT SESH:

Havana – Camila Cabello

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE EXERCISE?

Sit Ups

FAVORITE QUOTE:

I can do it. When I was having my mental block with the back hand springs, my Mom would make me say “I can do it” before every one.

ANY FUN FACTS, SOMETHING INTERESTING, OR ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANT TO SHARE?

My mom has always said she’s my biggest cheerleader. She is teaching me confidence and refuses to let me go to bed defeated. If I’m struggling, it doesn’t matter if it’s 2:00 in the morning, she will not let me go to bed until I am able to do the skill I’ve been practicing. She says we never go to bed defeated, we always go to bed victorious.

Thank you so much for sharing your amazing story! You are so inspiring and we are so proud that you have joined the CHEERFIT family! We look forward to following your amazing journey and hope you continue to stay healthy, fit, strong, and powerful in all you do!

Thinking About Being a Team Mom?

Thinking About Being a Team Mom?

“I’m one of those mom’s who stick around during my daughter’s cheer practice.”

My oldest daughter, who is 13 hates it, my younger daughter Savannah, who is a CHEERFIT Ambassador, age 10, loves it. I like watching what they are working on, how they are progressing, etc.

BECOMING A TEAM MOM

I think after being around so much, I kind of asked if the team needed a Team Mom to take care of correspondence, help coordinate things, etc. For all the Cheer Team Moms out there, this can be such a rewarding thing! This has by far been fun, emotional at times, and so much more than just sending out reminder emails for the coaches. Like everything, you get what you put into it.

Yes, I totally admit I live vicariously through my daughter’s cheerleading. Thank you to their Coaches for allowing me to travel this journey with them. Mom’s…you can bring so much to your daughter’s team. I have sat down with them and told them about my experience with Traumatic Brain Injury (the reaction and emotions were heartwarming and priceless), we have created get well cards for injured coaches, I’ve surprised the girls with a candy table at Easter, Valentines party, motivational quotes in our group chat, and hand out photo collage’s they can hang in their locker or at school after a competition.

The ideas are limitless, and the girls love the encouragement.

Think about volunteering to be a Team Mom for the new cheer season! I promise you won’t regret it.

Don’t forget to join the CHEERFIT Movement with your cheerleader and discover that you can also be #CHEERFITSTRONG.

My name is Asiah. I am eight years old. My birthday is on the 4th of July. I have lived in Hawaii, California, Michigan, and Kansas.

I had to have surgery and take 3 months off.  Now I am healthy and back to being my Fierce self!

Being a CHEERFIT Ambassador has helped me build confidence, learn new skills, and make friends!


Practice like your competing! Giving 100% every time, don’t get frustrated when you can’t hit a stunt or skill the first time, practice is important!

The 6 Tips Every Cheerleader Should Know

The 6 Tips Every Cheerleader Should Know

Sometimes, the best advice comes from those right in your shoes. Today, we share the 6 tips every cheerleader should know!

Tip #1: ALWAYS KEEP YOUR MUSCLES STRETCHED

This is easy enough to even do at HOME!

Some easy ways to make sure you are properly stretched include pointing your toes and working on flexibility! This can help get your skills PERFECT! You can even ask someone to help you!

Tip #2: ALWAYS POINT YOUR TOES WHEN DOING JUMPS

Pointing toes is a big deal!

Point your toes for tumbling, jumps, stretching, cradling, and any kind of stunt while being in the air! Little things like simply pointing your toes can make a HUGE difference on the scoreboard!

Tip #3: CONDITIONING

You want to condition yourself to your limit!

You can condition yourself when getting out of the shower or when you get home from practice! The three of us conditioned with the CHEERFIT BOOTCAMP WORKOUT DVD and we loved it! It was absolutely awesome and we strongly recommend it!

Tip #4: KEEP YOUR BODY AS TIGHT AS POSSIBLE

Stay tight to prevent injuries for ANYONE!

When stunting it is important to keep your body tight. Last thing you want is to injury your stunt group in the middle of a stunt combination. Not staying tight can also increase the chances of falling and not being caught by your stunt group. Remember to also smile and go full out in your performances!

Tip #5: CONTINUE TO PRACTICE OUTSIDE OF PRACTICE

Just because practice is over, don’t mean you have to STOP WORKING!

Always work on your tumbling even when you’re not at practice. You are able to practice during your free time at home or even if your gym is having an “Open Gym” event! Go in and work on your tumbling! PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT! 

Tip #6: MIND BLOCKS

Don’t follow any “Cheer Fails” on INSTAGRAM! IT’S A TRAP!

Don’t feed into NEGATIVE videos/post on Social Media. These things will just mentally bring you down! It is important to stay positive and feed yourself things that will help you mentally and physically to succeed. “Chloe showed me a fail video of a back tuck and now I refused to do it!” STAY POSITIVE and just go for it! With a positive mind, anything is possible!

Tune in to get these tips and more from CHEERFIT Ambassador, Sarah.

Top 5 Ideas to Pump Up Your Team for Summit

Top 5 Ideas to Pump Up Your Team for Summit

The team earned that coveted bid and everyone is jumping up and down for joy! The excitement is overwhelming… coaches start thinking about new additions to the routine, athletes are dreaming of both Mickey as well as winning that ring and parents want to know how they can help.

Answer…..team gifts and spirit!

Going to Disney World for Summit is an EXPERIENCE and the athletes are sure to make memories that will last a lifetime. Teams will be decked out in lots of Summit gear showing off their gym spirit and their accomplishment of making it to the Summit.

Here are the top 5 ideas for great ways to pump up the team and get them ready.

1. SPIRIT PARTIES

Think of a cute idea and play off the theme. We’ve done root beer floats after practice, “We’re Rootin’ for You. Absolutely inexpensive and made the point that we support them 100% and know how hard they are working.

2. PICK ME UPS

We all know the pressure gets intense as the Summit practices continue. Consider giving out small pick me ups to lift the athlete’s spirits after those hard, grueling practices. Nothing big or expensive but it let’s them know everyone is in this together. We love the #CHEERFITSTRONG bands as a reminder to our athletes that they are confident, strong, and can accomplish anything they set their mind to! 

3.T-SHIRTS & TANK TOPS

 Florida is HOT! Team tanks are always a hit and a great easy way to commemorate the experience as well as make your team stand out. Lots of cute ideas on Pinterest and whether you focus on Summit or sporting your team name, it definitely bonds your athletes.

4. TRAVEL ITEMS

Teams come from all over including internationally to compete at the Summit so think about toothbrush holders, baggage tags, toiletry bags, uniform bags, etc. These gifts will not only promote spirit but come in very useful.

5. PARK NECESSITIES

The athletes are bound to want to join in on the park fun so you might want to consider giving athletes items that they will NEED during park days. Items like fanny packs, drawstring bags, handheld fans, visors and sunglasses work great as spirit gifts.

The most important thing is to HAVE FUN, cherish the moments and make lots of memories!

SALLY PAZ

Sally Paz is proud mom of Ava. While her “real” job is in educational administration, she spends a huge amount of her time doing the crazy cheer mom thing. Since 2015 when Ava began All-Star Cheer, she has been team mom for two years and a member of the Executive Board of the APEX Booster Club for one year. This year Ava will be competing at Summit in the Senior Coed 4.2 and the International Junior 3.
