you don't think dancer have to be flexible...


well, you're totally wrong.

Dancers have to be flexible to be able to not only do the techniques but to do them well. Or else they look crappy.

Depends on what kind of cheerleading it is. If its competitive cheerleading, then hells yeah. you have to incorporate dance into that too for the routines. If its just basic sideline cheering... well that's not too exciting then. LOL. But cheerleading is def. the better sport. It's a lot more dangerous too...

Cheerleading is actually dancing too u noe.. at competitions they have to do a dance routine too and most of you out there probably don't know that cheerleading is actually harder than it looks. Im not saying dance is bad because I like both, but cheerleading is ACTUALLY a sport and people DO have to work for it. It's not all wave the pompoms. Theres actually moves and stunting and all that stuff, AND it's still got dancing in it.
fallenang3l211
dancing, all the way! you can't cheer in a club...
nlgrl
dancing^^
Melissa_gulick
i cheer n dance.. also gymnastics for whoever said cheer n gymnastics cuz ur flexible or watever.. u need all 3 to be the best @ it.. cheering without gymnastics and dance is just really being perky n smiling but if u put dance into it thats where your routines come in and if u put gymnastics in it thats where the stunts come in.. alright bye xoxo <3 .. o yea that dancin n cheerin arent that girly either .. i play softball too .. cheerleading n dance are both dangerous.. i got hurt being a flyer while cheerleadin 1 to many times and dancing messes up your feet if u do point and u can sprain your ankles in competitions

i LOVE dancing and i would never cheer lead. but i don't do tap or stuff like that. i like to GET LOW!!! haha. and grind. that's my kinda dancing. lol.

I've been dancing for 12 years so I would have to go with dancing. Besides it takes a lot more skill and ability to be a dancer than a cheerleader. Not that I have anything against cheerleaders, it takes a lot of practice to be able to do those stunts but I just think that dancing takes more time, dedication and talent. as well as some natural ability

I don't think cheerleaders dance at all. They just put on fake smiles and jump around, cheering on people.

I think dance is way better. I can't put on a fake smile for a period of time. >.< My cheeks would hurt.

Steph was just saying her opinion. I know a lot of cheerleaders and some are in fact really rude. Until I punched and tripped one of them and they shut up. Mounting is not dancing. Period.

i never said mounting was dancing.. i just said it was hard..

cheerleaders dance too.. if you've ever been to a cheerleading competition.. some teams have awesome dances.. and yes, its definetly dancing.
We dont do it at football games and such, usually just at school events and pep ralleys

Thank you.. yes.. i agree with you. Dancing does take more ability and to some it comes naturally.. but cheerleading is hard too. Thanks for recognizing that. You're one of the few. However, cheerleading does take practice and talent, but maybe not as much as dancing happy.gif

Everyone is just saying 'cheerleading is pointless'. Maybe thats because you dont know anything about it. Stop being so stereo-typical stubborn.gif

Aha I remember that.. but that guy was a jerk anyways. And SPIRIT FINGERS! That guy was stupid anyways.. he thought all cheerleaders should be perfect and skinny and that is not true at all.

Havent you ever been to a cheerleading competition? They have dance routines too. I'm not saying dancing is a bad thing too, but Im just saying that cheerleading isn't just jumping around waving pom poms and smiling while yelling. And cheerleading takes more work than most of you think so maybe you should try it out for yourself before assuming its that easy.

neither, join marching band

Well, from what I know, cheerleaders do not dance at football games. They sit there or cheer with their fake smiles. And cheerleading is harder than dancing? Okay what kind of dancing are we talking about first of all? Breaking? Ballet? Hip hop? Breaking takes a lot of effort than cheerleaders. Ballet? Pointed toes and all that jazz. I'm not saying that cheerleading is bad, but I just think dance is waay better.

I don't consider cheerleading an actual sport.
s0emotionalx3
I never said cheerleading was harder than dancing. Im just saying cheerleading is not as easy as everyone thinks and it IS a sport. When you stunt and do the jumps you need to work and build up ur muscles for it just like any other sport, so it is considered one.

Anyways.. cheerleaders dont ONLY smile and cheer at games. And think about it.. without cheerleaders, would there be as much cheering at games?
1azn_kutee
well itz kinda crazy 4 me..of course i like dancing more...and u know..if your a cheerleader ...well you gotta get your felxibility frum some where no wut im saying??...if you havnt tooken dance or gymnastics some time then you your gonna be a really dumb cheer leader... so yea i quit cheer leading cause i wannted more time for my ballet hiphop nd break...also cause its pretty much a waste or time you kant go anywhere with it... whistling.gif

Yes, the AUDIENCE cheers for them.
