For this blog post, I decided to share the unique movements involved in the sport of cheerleading, specifically of the young ladies on the Baruch Cheer team. Cheerleading is unique in that it involves sharp, tight motions both in the dance routines and in the cheers. Here is a video of my good friend Grace, who started this team with me running through the cheer we learned last practice. The sharp motions and loud chants are important to catching the eye of a crowd when performing and encouraging school spirit at Baruch! Working on these routines also helps bring people together. Grace and I have become really good friend very fast because of cheerleading. All the girls on the team have become friends and learning these cheers together is an interesting way in which movement can bring people together and help you make new friends.
