OCC

Ladies here is the routine from OCC. Sorry I had my little camera so the quality is not very good. Sorry about that!

Ok lets chat about what we can do get more points on the score sheet...
1. Smile more! Even when you are tired and worn out you have to bring it all the way till the very end. In the end dance you should be thinking big hips and shoulders. That alone is something to smile about! Remember the bigger the better!

2. Tumbling... ok I am not sure what is going on with this tumbling. You all warmed it up so nicely. Tumbling is actually one of stronger skills as a team. We want to show it off! JamLive even gave you a tumbling award after there was 9 touch downs. They said you were beautiful tumblers and liked how much was in the routine. Let's all focus on that tumbling and make sure you don't create this habit of touching down. When you are tired you have to really focus on the technique... set with your arms over your head and pull those tucks up and over. You are terrific tumblers now lets show it to the world!

3. Details ladies! Everyone has the same skills in the routine (jumps, motions, dance, tumbling). Now it comes down to who does it better, who can sell the routine the best. I know you can be best ones out there. You have to show it and push through it. That is what real athletes do... they push and drive themselves to be the best. If you want to win then you have to work like winners. I want to see that work ethic and drive this weekend. The Bears can do it!

JamLIVE! Cincy

Bears,
Here is your video from Cincy. Overall not too bad! I thought you were sharper in more spots than you were at OSU. Of course there are still some spots to work on... that tumbling! Yikes! Every single one of you landed your tumbling in the warm up area prior to going out there so I know you can do it. We will be working some serious tumbling in the next few weeks to make sure you are going to be more consistent in landing it. You have to want to land it, see yourself landing and then do it. Not one of you are put in a spot to do a tumbling pass that you cannot do, so lets hit the mat next time and show everyone what great tumblers you are!

JamLIVE! also said you were great tumblers even with your touchdowns. You received an award for best incorporated tumbling so they see the potential and love the variety of tumbling you have in your routine. Let's work hard at making that tumbling stick so you have no penalties! No penalties would put in the number one spot, just like last weekend.

Overall ladies great job! We are proud of you! I can't wait to see you back into action at the next competition! Below is your video.

Cheers,
Coach Heather

OSU VIDEO

Bears, Here is the video I took at the OSU competition. Watch it and please leave comments on what you see. We need constructive feedback. Don't forget to give kuddos to teammates too! I saw a lot of really good things in the routine and some things that need some work too. Let's get ready for Jamfest Live with an even stronger routine! Cheers, Coach Heather
