About Katlin Expertise I can answer all kinds of questions that are about tumbeling, stunting, flying, cheering, dancing, flexabilty, motions, and just getting back in shape. I can't answer questions about the drill team. I was on an all-star team for 7 years and am currently on my high school team which I have been on for 3 years, and I am currently captain of my high school squad. On my all-star team I was a flyer, a base, and a tumbler. I would be glad to help you, so you may give me some of your questions and I would be glad to give you as much information as I can.
Experience I have cheered for 7 years for an all star team. We traveled out of state. I was a flyer but I know how to base and backspot.
Organizations I am on an all-star team and high school team.
Publications In the newspaper.
Education/Credentials I am captain of the girls basketball cheerleading squad.
Awards and Honors Nationals more than once, many different places.

Answer Hii Monica,
All you you have to worry about really is just being flexible and staying up in the stunt no matter what .. if your foot is held wrong of something doens't feel right it is your job to stay up there if they drop you out of the stunt its' not your fault it is there as long as you don't bail .. IF YOU HAVE ANY MORE QUESTIONS LET ME KNOW GOOD LUCK KEEP ME POSTED ON HOW IT GOES!!
Sincerly,
Katlin <3
