Fundamentals of Cheer
Get the Individual Attention You Need to Level Up!
Fundamentals of Cheer
Step into the world of stunting, tumbling, and high-energy performance with our Fundamentals of Cheer program. This is the ultimate "elite entry point" for athletes moving up from exhibition cheer or those brand new to the sport. We focus on the skill-building and technical growth needed to eventually hit the mat with our competitive teams. See what the All-Star life is all about without the full-year commitment.
The Ultimate "Mini-Season" Experience
Ready to see if the competitive world is for you? Our Fundamentals class runs on a shorter season with one 1-hour practice per week. It’s the perfect, low-pressure environment for athletes born between 2013–2019 to find their "cheer legs" and build confidence through real routine experience. No tumbling skills are required to start—just a heart for the sport and a desire to level up.
Rec Cheer vs. Fundamentals: Finding Your Fit
While both programs are high-energy, they serve different goals. Our Rec Cheer program is all about intro-level exposure—perfect for those who want to learn the basics and have fun without the pressure of a routine. Fundamentals is the next step up; it is more routine-based and includes instruction on stunting. If your athlete is eyeing a spot on a team next year, Fundamentals is where they need to be.
Precision Stunting & Technical Progressions
In this gym, we don't just "lift"—we build athletes. Unlike our introductory Rec classes, Fundamentals focuses heavily on the mechanics of stunt technique and routine-building. Our coaches guide students through proper hand placement, weight distribution, and timing to ensure every stunt is locked in. This hands-on approach builds the stunt-group trust necessary for future All-Star success.
Explosive Jumps & "Flight-Ready" Flexibility
A Genesis cheerleader is known for explosive power and impressive airtime. We utilize specific drills to improve vertical leap and jump form, ensuring every jump is crisp, high, and hyper-extended. Our training incorporates stretching routines that maximize range of motion while prepping your athlete for the explosive athleticism required in a full competitive routine.
Full Out Performance Presence
Cheerleading is as much about showmanship as it is athleticism. We teach athletes how to project their voices with diaphragm-led spirit and maintain an elite performance presence from the first beat of the music to the final eight count. Your athlete will learn to lead a crowd and perform a choreographed routine for judges at two local events, gaining that "under the lights" experience.
Building Champions: Confidence Beyond the Mat
The bond between cheer teammates is unlike any other—it’s rooted in mutual support and shared goals. As athletes master their first dance routine and hit their first successful stunt sequence, they gain a sense of accomplishment that radiates beyond the gym walls. At Genesis Athletix, we aren't just training athletes; we’re growing confident leaders through the power of teamwork and grit.

"My six-year-old has been in ninja class for a couple of months and he loves it! He looks forward to it every week and it's a safe clean space with very friendly coaches and staff. It's been a great way to get him into sports and exercising and it's also been a good way for him to socialize and play with the other little ninjas."
