Starting since I was in second grade I was involved in the sport cheerleading. When I first started I was introduced to school cheerleading. Then in the third grade my aunt opened up a gym for select/all star cheerleading. Now, at the age of 15 I have done school cheer for eight years and all star cheer for seven.
