“H.Y.P.E.” stands for Half-Year Performance Education and is a cheer program designed to meet the needs of both new and experienced athletes. H.Y.P.E. is perfect for children ages 5-18 that wish to participate in a cheer program that focuses on dance, tumbling, and stunting. Athletes in the H.Y.P.E. cheer program will enjoy lighter time and financial commitments than traditional full-season travel competitive cheer programs. This is also a great opportunity for athletes just finishing up a sideline (School) cheer program. Lesson plans revolve around teaching safe and proper technique in all skills, fostering teamwork, and encouraging a safe, fun, and educational environment for everyone.
