    All-Star Things To Do In Dallas

    I second the Dallas Aquarium idea- I have been and it was awesome. Also the Galleria Mall (ice skating rink and many cool stores), and the Spaghetti Warehouse. If anyone in your family likes history, you could also visit the John F. Kennedy Memorial. If anyone in your family likes art, I...

    All-Star Flexibility

    I agree with the above suggestion. Also, try to sit in as wide of a straddle as you can each day, lean down as far as you can to the middle without bending your legs, and hold for at least 60 seconds. Then slowly come up, and slowly go down again and hold for another 60 seconds. The entire...

    All-Star Linkedin Article: 6 Ways Gym Owners Lose Money

    I found this article very informative. I very much agree about putting more focus on Tiny and Mini teams from a business perspective. It's incredible how different things look now that I am a program owner instead of a teenage athlete. I know now it's a lot of effort and can get complicated...

    Retiring All Star Parents

    Don't feel guilty! Allstar cheer is a huge financial and time commitment. As long as you cherish the memories, it's okay to feel all right about being done. My mom and dad were extremely relieved when I retired from allstar cheer even though they enjoyed watching me perform. They just didn't...

    More Classes Versus Privates?

    I agree with the above answers about fastest not always being the best. Speaking from experience, I took multiple classes and multiple privates during the height of my cheer career, and I still struggled to progress.

    All-Star "cheerleading Is Not A Sport"

    Is 20 Too Old For All Star?

    No, 20 isn't too old, especially since you already have a few years of experience. That helps a lot.

    If Money/responsibility Were Not An Issue....

    Victory Cheer and Dance in Arlington TX. They gave me a chance when other gyms wouldn't and were so kind and helpful. I have fond memories of them.

    Random Mental Blocks

    I suffered from mental blocks my entire cheerleading career. I got my BHS, then I suddenly started going crooked when I did them and that scared me so I was afraid to do them again and this vicious cycle kept repeating. It impacted me so much that I started my own recreational cheerleading...
