how can i have a natural smile while cheerleading?

Pretend your crush is going to ask u out or think of puppies haha

Its your duty that always keep smiling on your face but i know that it will quite tough for you.

hahahit is hard i deal with the same thing… it is hard to samile naturaly without feeling like your look stupid or you can tell that you are faking it… what i try to do is just look at someone is the crowd who i know will make me smile… but most the time i am going off of competitiveness.. of the other cheerleaders so that helps also.. good luck!

not to say you dont enjoy cheering but you should naturally smile if you enjoy doing it. im in poms and i love it so its alot easier to have an naturral smile

its not that i dont like it but im always nervous and feel like im gonna mess something up

yeah i totally understand.. ummm maybe u should get into muscle memory?thats what i do. i practice and practice with faces and smiling even if i think i have perfect. cuz then when i get nervous i can just forget about the choreography and my muscle memory takes over then its easier to smile :]
