FLEX Alumni Stories
Have you ever wondered what being a cheerleader is like ?
Well, here is an answer from our alumna Iulduz Razzakova'20
"When I think of fun times in the U.S., cheerleading always pops first in my head
I remember my host sister, Madison, offered me to to join cheer team , so I could dive into "typical teenage life", make more friends, and enjoy football/basketball games And guess what? She was right
I had an opportunity to learn new skills, to overcome my fears, to be more confident, and to become determined
The best part about cheerleading was memorizing all cheers, stunting, since I was a flyer, and going to cheer competitions , which means we also traveled to different parts of the state and were sociable with people
Overall, I loved being a part of a unique team, supporting our school, performing, and learning something I've never experienced before "
