Katie’s daughter Alivia is a crossover on two of our elite teams, Frost and Black Ice. They have been a part of this program for 5 years. She had found Ideal through a couple Facebook friends whose daughters were both doing it. When we asked Katie what her favorite part about being in the Ideal program was, she said “I love watching Alivia perform. The confidence she has when she hits the mat is crazy! But even more than that, Alivia has learned what it means to be part of a team. She has learned that hard work and dedication pay off. As a mom, I love the community cheer families that we get to see each week. Some of these families have become our best friends.”
Since being a part of Ideal, she has learned what it truly means to be a part of the team. She said, “If you want to be successful, you HAVE to put in the work.” When we asked her what her favorite memory was, she said “Every time Alivia performs is my favorite, but coming in a close second was the look of excitement and shock when she was asked to join Black Ice in October.”
Katie’s Advice to Any Newcomers:
“Give it a chance. It might be outside yours or your child’s comfort zone, but give it a chance! You’ll be amazed!”
