Austin would be well worth the drive... Their gym is known all over texas for their clean technique and choreography, and their mini level one was just MIND BLOWING last year!

Lol this video was already one of my favorites on YouTube and my daughter said she wants to go their just because Justin Bieber was in their music! I had to tell her that's not guaranteed it just happened lol. I'm leaning toward ACF the most! I was just in texas last week and I made the drive as if I was driving to the gym and it wasn't that bad! Although i did hit traffic on the interstate 3 different times that came to a stand still going thru Austin! I still like everything I've read from ACF a lot. So the next step is visiting! My 6yr old daughter will be a level 2 maybe level 3 athlete at the time. She will be happy long as she is on some level 2 team- she just wants to throw her BHS in a competition and wear a crop top uniform because you can almost see her 6 pack! (words of a 6 yr old) LOL
She said that's all she wants to be happy and they have the uniform part of it down already! My child is a mess!

They're cleaner than most senior teams

I drive 2 hours to Cheer Athletics & it's absolutely worth it!! It is "the best of the best!" We love it!!!

Usually takes me about 1hr. On a good day I can get there in 45-50min but with traffic/bad weather it can take anywhere from 1hr 10min- 1hr 30min. I don't really think it's very far but it's one of the best gyms with a reasonable driving distance so yes it's worth it

11 minutes tops! Haha

I used to cheer at Gym Tyme and I drove 2 hours to practice 3 days a week, and the 2 weeks before NCA Dallas, I drove 2 hours up and back every day Monday-Sunday for practice. It was well worth it. We got 4th at worlds that year. I would do it again!

45 minute train ride first, then we drive about 45 minutes. But at rush hour the drive can take upto an hour and a half.

Way less than last season, which was 2 hours driving.

Is it worth it? Yes, or we wouldn't do it.

I half way live in Cookeville. Maybe I should just catch some rides with you and do this myself. haha if only I had the time. You must give up a lot to do this every weekend!

When Im complaining about driving almost 2 hours to ca I come to this thread and read post hahah

Just a little update, my drive went from 11 hours, to fifteen minutes!! I thankfully moved back to Texas!

It takes us 2 hours to get to New Jersey Spirit Explosion and it's worth every minute of the drive!

I'm sure that is so much less stressful!

It takes me 1 hour 15 mins during the week and about 35 minutes on the weekend! It's worth it for me! <3

Well we went back to our old gym. So we're back to about a 2 hour drive in traffic. On the weekends when traffic is lighter it's about an hour to an hour and 15 minutes.

Takes me about 55 minutes to get to the gym during the fall, winter, spring.
About an 1 hour and 15 minutes during the summer, because I'm heading towards the beaches.
