Quick answer: we explain what cheer skills are and how they're classified - we never teach how to perform them. Stunts and tumbling should only be learned with qualified coaching.
Our Core Rule
Cheerleading involves genuine physical risk - stunts, pyramids, tosses and tumbling can cause serious injury when attempted without qualified supervision, appropriate equipment and correct progressions. Because of this, this site follows a strict boundary:
- We explain what a skill is, how it's classified, and where it fits in a routine.
- We do not explain how to physically perform, teach or practise a skill.
What You Will Not Find Here
- Step-by-step stunt or tumbling instruction
- Advice on practising stunts or tumbling without a coach
- Spotting or catching technique instruction
- Injury diagnosis or rehabilitation advice
What You Will Find Here
- Clear definitions of stunts, tumbling skills, jumps and motions
- How skills are classified by level and division
- The roles involved in a stunt and how they relate to each other
- How skills fit into scoring and routine structure
Our Position
Qualified coaching is required for any physical skill progression in cheerleading. Official governing-body rules remain the authoritative source for what is legal at a given level or division - this site is a plain-English companion to that material, not a replacement for it.
If you or your child are starting cheer, the right first step is always a qualified coach at a reputable gym or program.
