Follow These Tips to Perfect Toe Touches
Keep your head up and your back straight.
Don't reach for your feet, instead try to bring your legs up to your hands.
You don't actually want to touch your toes.Your hands should be about where the arch of your foot is.
Point your toes.
Snap your legs down with as much force as you brought them up with.
Land with a slight bend in you knees.
Work on building up the strength in your arms, shoulders, abs and legs.
Work on all aspects of the jump: prep, lift, execution and landing.
Practice, practice, practice

Improve Your Cheerleading Motions
Keep your arms stiff and your muscles tight.

Your transitions should be smooth, snappy and quick.

You should punch your motions out with a lot of strength.

Your wrists should never be bent, ****** or out of alignment with your arms.

If you're in an extended motion, your elbows should be locked.

Your arms should always be slightly in front of you and level. Don't let your arms bounce or jiggle.

Know in what direction your fist should be facing. Keep your thumbs outside your fist.

Take the shortest distance to the next motion and wait until the last second to make it. Move quickly and precisely.

Your motions should correspond with the syllables of the words in your cheer/chant or the count of your dance routines and stunts.
