Oapq

I am new

I do the jump splits. I learned them by myself! I’m also only 11

I'm so sorry. I'm a dancer of 6 years as of today and think about what would happen If I could never dance again. I had a minor injury about a year ago that if it got worse I wouldn't be able to dance again. I hate not being able to dance or go to my classes. I'm so sorry to hear that. I send my best wishes!

I'm sorry. That's tough and I really empathize with you. Thought I just had a sprain after a nasty overrotation with a rifle at world Winter Guard auditions- turns out I have DeQuervains in my wrist and can no longer spin for long periods or multiple times a week.

I'm really sorry that happened, i'm 14 and have been dancing for 11 years i have no idea what i would do without dance. i've had several injuries before, i was doing a hip hop dance for the first time and hurt my leg really bad luckily it healed. I'm sorry that it ended your dance career. i hope the best for you 💗

Same thought.

@@SummerAzures I had to skip out on a whole season of winter guard cause I strained a muscle in my back from my rifle time in marching season:(

Judy and Kelly don't want them to because it is really easy to hurt yourself doing it.

@@gabbiebates706 but aren't there like a hundred former DCCs teaching at studios around the country from whom they could get lessons?

I would think they would learn the kick line, jump splits, and the entrance BEFORE trying out...

That's the first thing I'm learning before I go there 😂😂😂

Bc they need to have correct information/instructions on how to do it or they will not be able to tryout at all btw I am a cheerleader

Each cheer team is different. They don't all do jump split or kick lines. 😊

@@ashleighnicole8407 Absolutely true. But I'm watching this from the UK and I know the DCC signature performance includes the kick line & jump splits. It's not unreasonable to expect women who are actually trying out for the DCC team to know that and to have got themselves some training in moves which are definitely required.

Ashleigh Nicole that’s a pretty dumb excuse for you to give. The DCC are known for the iconic jump spilt at the end of there performance. It’s literally there signature move. There the most famous NFL cheer team. Anyone trying out would know what there’s known for and should be prepared, considering there’s so many girls that try out? Stop giving excuses💀💀

Lauren Sweet practicing a jump split without the proper guidance can cause injury. And most dance studios don’t just teach you how to do a jump split.

@@laurensweet6864 On the subject of "dumb"... *their* is probably what you meant to type. Continuing, her statement was a general statement. No need to attack an opinion :)

They're not calling her dumb. All of these girls typically have years of dance training prior to tryouts. Therefore, by that training your ability to learn new routines should be ingrained. All the other girls were picking up the routine quickly, she was not. This isn't a daycare where everyone gets coddled nobody how bad they are. They're looking for the ability to learn routines very quickly, follow directions well, and perform those routines perfectly. Slow to learn a routine is not an excuse when 30+ other girls do it quickly.

Alyssa Holt everyone is different so some people might pick it up fast some might need to take time and learn it but yes they want people who can pick it up quickly

You're probably the type of person to condone "participation medals" huh? Everybody's equal type shit

Xanivert I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being a slow learner. Everyone is different. I think it was just the WAY the coach said it that came out wrong.

@@Xanivert There is a difference in critiquing and being a bitch. Honestly wouldn't be a problem if you didn't do it on live television.

Not all cheer teams are the same so not all of them do jump spilts and a kick line 🤦🏻‍♀️

@@kristinbeecher8391 these girls are trained dancers, not trained cheerleaders

I am in cheer and I have been there for three years and we learnt our jump splits a year later I joined I know I don’t understand but it is the last thing I would teach my team

I’m literally 10 and I do jump splits all the time what’s the problem?

Because if it’s something you’ve never done before you don’t want to practice it on your own and risk getting hurt.

how much do they pay

Lynn practically minimum wage 😠

Don’t forget the ludicrous rules in their contract!

Something about being a cheerleader for an NFL team is SOOO much more rewarding than the pay 😊. (I'm saying this as a cheerleader myself and my cousin who's a cheerleader for the Saints, no shade intended)

@@Lynn-ip9sh $400 a game now and $50-$75 per public appearance.

say it louder for the ones in the back 💅🏻👑😂

They're encouraged to work. A novel concept eh? 🤣

Marina D this IS work.. wtf are you saying!

@@__eganista6372 They ARE working

Am I the only person who thinks they don’t deserve more phonetic? They don’t contribute anything to society. Sorry

If you’ve never done a jump split before and try it on your own without someone helping you then you can get hurt. Plus it’s not required for tryouts.

you cant really do a jump split without help you can tear anything in your leg and they are not required for tryouts so. and their pretty easy to learn

exactly i don’t understand why if you’re trying out for this team and you know it’s one of their signature moves you wouldn’t try it beforehand

@@neoculttexh if you’ve never done it then trying it on your own could cause an injury.

@@tiarasmith6174 but you can always ask someone else for assistance and it’s not like you can’t find lots of videos on youtube that could show how to do it without hurting yourself

They are paid with how easily they could be replaced

This isn’t even that hard

@@jackmaillard5046 I’m sorry but what you just said is hilarious. Care to tell me which year you became a DCC, or you know name any other dance/cheer/gymnastics accomplishment of yours that’s equal to or more impressive than these ladies?

@@trendymaths2467 Im second in the world in aerobics which is a form of dance that includes 360 jumps to splits and russians to splits.

@@trendymaths2467 i am also an 11 time national champion combining both aerobics and cheerleading so judging by what these girls thought was hard in this video its safe to say that im pretty accomplished yeah

Exactly what IM SAYING THANK YOU !

They could always choose to get a job that pays better, right?

@@darthnatas953 or you could pay professional dancers a proper wage?

@@adoreyou7449 The proper wage is what the market dictates. In all professions. Unless you are a socialist and want a controlled economy, in which case I can't help you understand economics whatsoever.

@@darthnatas953 and what is the market within football? How much income is the team receiving? The DC generate up to 900 mil/year. The dancers are paid 8-12 dollars an hour and 400 per game. That is hardly a livable wage for anyone, especially for a team that makes hundreds of millions of dollars per year.

She's a fierce dancer too

Same

Sydney Durso cheered for seven years.

Yes to this!

She got kicked off the show

Yes! This would be great.

They never will

I hope tf not. That’s the highlight of the performance

retrograde right. Plus how many football players gotten hurt with tackling but it still goes on.

Tiara Smith bc football players actually gain like millions from it

Cheer is all about body risking gymnastics. If you just take out every move that would hurt someone you would only end up with 2 cheer moves. (which sucks) but that’s cheerleading and any other physical sport.

Like seriously it's not that hard. Drag Queen literally flies 5 feet above for jump splits smh

😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 For real!

Ruth Ngeny alyssa or laganja or kennedy aja etc..

It is easy I'm a dancer and I hadn't tried it before today but I got it on the second try.

Someone call Alyssa Edwards

Ya but you get paid how easily you could be replaced and well there are many dancers/cheerleaders

Bailey Patterson performance quality doesnt matter, the players still get paid MILLIONS more.

sophiebophiex the players are much harder to replace. You can say the dancer deserve more money but don’t compare it to the players because they get paid way more for a reason

Bailey Patterson still they need to get paid more they are also part of the entertainment at the game so they deserve to get payed more we are not saying that they should be paid millions we are just saying raise their salary to something that can actually provide for them their house and family

KADI KUWHCHA they don’t deserve to get paid more they are paid for how easily they could be raplaced

No one said they had to practice it by themselves. Just to learn it beforehand. Lmao the DCC aren't the only people in the world to do jump splits. They definitely could learned it elsewhere beforehand to be more prepared and less scared.

You do realize they have camps and services to teach this to them. Plus they can get just as hurt there as anywhere else. Better to be prepared to harsh competition

Thank you

Thats what you tube is for. You can find a video instroducing the jump split! Do some research people. Do you apply for a job without researching what the job is to make sure you are qualified These millennials are hopeless

Everyone replying is dumb. 1. Not every high school team requires the same thing 2. Doing anything without spotting is more likely to cause an injury than having a professional there to help 3. They know the basics. Jump splits isn't one of them.

I think someone made a video about this

m a I think it was Rachel W

They all have beautiful hair, bu they are gorgeous in general, not just hair ahah

beyond products, think false hair and extensions.

Covid 19. ..

Her journey

Lauren Carlson yes!!! I agree!

I did

Tanned tights

stockings

Sherbs dislocated her elbow right? But I love Monica

Carlijn Kuiper I was just watching that episode last night. Lexi said she seen how the way her shoulder bone popped out. I love Monica to! She’s the best 💜

Daytona 2020 was cancelled due to Covid :( Monica is tough, but fair. Love her!

Everyone went at the same time except her

Matt same

That how you count a cadence. It's like that in music and in marching too. It's really 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, but if there's no music from 1-4, then it can start on 5 or any other beat. However, 1 is always where the next measure begins. To divide it even further, into shorter beats, ... 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 or 1 ee and uh 2 ee and uh 3 ee and uh 4.

If ever a cheerleader you know why they always start with "5, 6, 7, 8"!!!

Fr. I’m like some of them are doing running man kicks. Lmao.

How much is "enough"?

O geez I can't imagine either

@@darthnatas953 a livable wage....?

@@jasminewilliams8944 What is your definition of "a livable wage"? Should that be guaranteed to all citizens, regardless of the job? For instance, what if I started up a art store to sell paintings, because I really love art, or if I was a dancer because you know, dancing is fun. Regardless of if anyone is willing to pay for my my art or not, should I be guaranteed "a livable wage"? Should the government ensure that I will get paid as much as someone who cleans out septic tanks for a living? Because I can guarantee you one thing if you implement this type of proposal: There will be a hell of a lot more dancers and artists than there are now, all swimming in pools of shit.

@@darthnatas953 yes. I believe all people, regardless of their career path, deserve a comfortable existence. None of us choose to be born. No one deserves to be poor, ESPECIALLY in a country this wealthy. What is the government for if not to promote the wellbeing of its citizens?

Omg I need Christina! She is going on a 3rd year veteran and it took her 5 tries to get there, that’s a hell of a journey lol

Djk33❤😍😘 you have a boyfriend how old you are

Djk34💘💝🥰🥰 are you single how old you are I'm single

No it’s not

It really is tho! As long as you ho for it and dont hesitate, it's a peice of cake

*go

@@curtiszilla9192 Obviously she means easy for a trained and flexible dancer.

might be late but flexibility and sharpness !! quality over quantity, also. and put your heart and head into everything you do-“you can do anything you put your mind to”. tell yourself to take breaks when needed. be stern when you wanna give up and acknowledge when you need to-there’s a difference between wanting to and needing to :)

Ashley Lenae you say it as if younger people can’t be more flexible and agile than older people ... in fact that is usually the case.

Younger people can be more flexible then oldest people because they have younger body’s.

Skyler Wyatt yes but if your a dancer you need high kicks

@@existing..6235 They can but tbh that's something they should have already worked on was higher kicks

God bless u for being so strong your so gonna get that dream I promise keep having hope and faith

Djk33❤😍😘 you have a boyfriend how old you are

I could do a middle jump split at 4 1/2

Then you probably shouldn't be doing it. It feels weird the first time, but it doesn't hurt

stockings

@@nessakay02 Thank you. It was hard to tell.

Not true they get paid 400$ a game

@@Angelaaa1015 When they divide the 400$ into the hours that they needed to complete in practices and preps they make minimum wage. They are also expected to pay for everything themselves such as teeth whitening, makeup and so on, which is required, but they don't help out financially. So they make very little. =(
