About Lions Cheer Company in Bloomington, IL
In 2000, Victory Academy Lions opened its doors and became one of the first All Star cheer teams in the state of Illinois. With just two teams in the beginning, the program quickly grew in popularity and added more and more teams to meet the demand. After 13 successful seasons at Victory Academy, the organization moved to Gymnastics Etc. in Bloomington and the Lions Cheer Company name was born. In December 2017, Jen Nettleton, the program director for over 16 years, retired and Amanda Wait, a former athlete, took her place. The Lions Cheer Company continues to grow and provide quality All Star cheer teams and class programs to the Central Illinois community. After 20 years of service, the Lions Cheer Company is now the longest running All Star program in the entire state of Illinois.

Flyer Training
In our Flyer Training classes, we will utilize drills and exercises to improve each athlete's confidence and overall abilities as a flyer. We will focus on proper body alignment, awareness, control, flexibility, and performance. Stunting elements, such as twisting skills, tic tocs, and switch ups will be taught at ground level to prepare them to utilize those skills in the air on their teams. All body positions will be covered, including liberty, heel stretch, front stretch, bow and arrow, scorpion, scale, and arabesque. These classes are offered on weeknights and are 30 minutes in length. Athletes must be age 6 or older and must have previous cheer experience, but flying experience is not required. You can enroll anytime, as long as there is an opening in the class.
