Alamo Heights Xtreme Cheer is an All-Star Cheerleading Team for ages 6-12.
All Star cheerleading teams do not cheer for other sports teams…. They are the TEAM!!!
All Star cheerleading is a competition sport that involves athletes to perform a 2.5 minute routine that consist of stunting, pyramids, group tumbling, jumps and a dance routine.
Our Cheerleading program will focus not only physical fitness but will also learn important lessons such as respect, dedication, self-confidence, commitment, sportsmanship and most importantly, teamwork.
