Read this #1 Amazon Best Seller for Auditions Do you watch professional sports with one eye on the game, and the other on the beautiful, glamorous and energetic cheerleaders? If you picked up this book, then you dream of cheering on the sidelines at an NFL(r), NBA(r), or other professional-level sporting event. You love dancing and sports. You have enough enthusiasm to excite hundreds of thousands of fans in the arena. You can't wait to hear the roar of the crowd and dance under the bright lights. You can already imagine what you'll experience as a member of an elite squad of amazing cheerleaders. And you want to make that vision real But if you aren't already fulfilling your dream, then you probably have one of two problems: Either you are someone sitting on the sidelines, feeling too nervous and unprepared to even show up at an audition, or you are someone who has already tried out for a pro dance team but was not selected. If either of those apply to you, I have great news This book will break down the pro dance team audition process to give you the courage and confidence to show up on the day of auditions, as well as critical success tips to help you get selected. I'm here to help you make it onto the team of your dreams I have over 20 years of experience in the cheerleading industry, including two years as an NFL cheerleader, and many years directing professional cheerleading teams in the US and overseas. I have made a career out of training and advising cheerleaders, cheerleading coaches, and pro dance team directors in several professional sports leagues. I have judged at more cheerleading auditions than I can count, and have even been an expert witness in cheerleading-related lawsuits. Whenever I sit at the judge's table at a professional dance team audition, I know EXACTLY what we look for. I have seen successful candidates do everything right, and other women do everything wrong. It takes so much more than a smile and good dance technique to make it into the big leagues Whether this is your first audition or your 20th, I promise you will find my advice valuable and essential. Some of it may even surprise you. I will share the secrets to image, weight loss, fitness, and beauty that few people outside of the professional entertainment industry know. I will even tackle the uncomfortable topics of racism, ageism, fat discrimination, and cosmetic surgery. Some serious myth busting will take place Best of all, I will give you a solid action plan to help you achieve your goals. What's in this book? This book is divided into sections. The first section is the introduction, which you are reading now. In it, I tell you what motivated me to write this book (spoiler alert: you did ). The next section, "Is this sport for you?," describes why you would want to pursue this goal, what the pro cheerleader personality "type" is in an ideal candidate. I also explore three of the biggest common myths about arena cheerleading. Next, in "Your research & advance prep," I teach you why and how to prepare ahead of time, and what you need to research before the day of auditions. The next sections are critical, because I will teach you what you need to know to make it onto the squad of your dreams. Those sections are "Your dancing," "Your body," "Your grooming," and "Your audition attire." After that, I tackle the topics of reputation, lifestyle and experience, as well as mindset exercises you can do to help you prepare for the big day. That section is titled, "Your mindset & self." In "Your application," I'll teach you how to make your application stand out. The section titled, "Your audition day," will take you through all of the elements of a typical audition and will teach you tips to help you do your best on the big day.
