LiLee, as a mom, I feel so proud of you for being vulnerable and wanting to be an encouragement to others. The fact is that when we try out for things sometimes we don't make it and life and joy go on. Good attitude, girl!
@emma atkins She’s not saying that in a mom standpoint she’s just saying that as a mom, with her experience, it’s inspiring. Also, if you don’t have something nice to say don’t say it.(say meaning comment on this case)
@@emmaatkins1132 She's not acting like her mum. Shes just trying to send out a nice message and YOU are acting disappointed. If you don't have anything nice to say don't say it,cause your acting like HER mum when you said that 🙄
LiLee - by not making the team, but still posting the video, you helped so many more people than you would have if you made the team. So vulnerable, and so brave of you. It’s these really hard moments in life that teach us empathy and remind us of how strong we are.💛✨
I love how you guys are showing a different side to your life and being real with your subscribers. It really highlights how life isn’t always perfect but I think that everything happens for a reason and that LiLee can focus on her Cheer at her club because if she improves from a backwalkovef to round off backhand spring backhand spring then she is capable of being an amazing cheerleader! You guys are an inspiration and your videos are the thing I look forward to after a tough week of school ❤️❤️
Lilee you I am so proud of you 🥳🥰 and even prouder of how you handled your results! You are being so supportive to so many adolescents trying out for things by just showing them what happened and how you feel. Never giving up and understanding you can achieve your goals in time, at your pace, doesn't make you a failure, it makes you human with a healthy mindset. Thank you for your great example Lilee and Mom! Love all y'all!💙💜💙💜💙🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@Caitlyn756 Well, you shouldn't read the comment section before watching a video. No hate tho! I understand what you mean. (I learned from this because this comment kind of spoiled the video for me too lol)
LiLee - I was cut from my cheer team my senior year. It was a team that I made the year before (and I made a lot of improvements between my junior and senior year). It was one of the most difficult things that I ever went through. Your worth is not determined by the expectations set by others and it took me a long time to learn that. Keep on going and you’ll make the necessary improvements you need for next season!
I love how lilee was ok with sharing that she didn’t make it! I know that a lot of people don’t want to share the bad things, but it’s nice that she wanted to share the reality! :)
For Lilee’s backhand spring she is throwing her head back so working on not doing that will help her a lot. She did so good at that tryout. She looked amazing. Her motions where so tight and she looked so clean. Don’t give up and keep working hard and you will definitely make the team next year
I don't know anything about back hand springs but I noticed when she did it she jumped and when she landed to do the back handspring her legs were apart so maybe that's why her legs were apart. No hate :)
Sending love Lilee, I cheered gameday and all-star for 12 years and didn't make the team my senior year. It was hard at first, but having the newfound free time I got to try and experience all the things cheer held me from! it was all part of God's plan for me!
I’m so glad y’all posted this! I didn’t make the cheer team one year and it was crushing. It’s nice to have the comfort that other people have experienced this
Being able to “sit” with the uncomfortable feelings is such a huge thing for anyone to be able to do. Mom, you are so amazing!!! You are doing an amazing job with how you model handling emotions with your children.
As a gymnast of 8 years, one piece of advice I can give for backhand springs is just locking your arms and practicing over and over, and working on upper body strength because it’s easier to lock your arms without them giving out when you have more arm strength! However you guys are going so great! Keep up the amazing work 💕
Ms. Lilly, as a former cheerleader at BYU-H & the University of Alabama, I just gotta say, “I’M SOOOOO PROUD OF YOU!”!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 What you did in 3 weeks is simply, 🤩spectacular. 🤩 Loved 💕it when you said, “I will have more than my Round Off, Back Tuck.” Attitude = Altitude! You inspired me more than you will ever know. Pray to Heavenly Father for help & at the same time WORK as if everything depends on you. You have a powerful mission on this planet Ms. Lilly. Take this pain 😢 & let it push you to new pinnacles of power 💪 ! You are !PHENOMENAL, young lady. Mind, Body, Fitness Expert, Blake P.s. Luke would be a awesome cheerleader. I know he loves musical theatre 🎭 & dancing. After college, I was an acrobat in the shows at Disney World at the Magic Kingdom. My tumbling skills help me get a spot on Mary Poppins cleaning crew, as a CHIMNEY SWEEP After 3 years at Disney I moved to NYC & worked as a performer there.💫 “The DREAMERS of today really are the ACHIEVERS of tomorrow. Most people have no 😢CLUE😢 all of the powerful components of the SPORT OF CHEER! 🤗 Cheer= Work Ethic, “I CAN” attitude, confidence, teamwork, fitness, networking opportunities, service opportunities, scholastic standards to keep your spot on the squad & sometimes Athletic Scholarships. 🤩 I truly love 💕 & 🙏 pray for y’all’s family ! 🙏 Your Eternal Brother & Follower, Blake 🤗
so proud of u lilee!!! u had a great attitude as well! so many people give up when things get hard but not you! keep practicing and keep giving it your all! your amazing! 💗
You did so good Lillee! Keep putting in work, be confident and never give in! I tryout for high school cheer in 1 year and this gives me motivation! 💓💓
I tried out for volleyball last year and I know how it feels! I am super proud that she showed her experience because lots of people don't make the teams that they tried out for!❤️
Yes last season I didn’t make my soccer team but soccer tryouts are actually this week so I never gave up ! Basically this is a message saying to not give up and continue your dreams I made it 😁😁😁
I love how LiLee showed hard work and dedication. Then, showed us strength and a positive attitude! You looked great girl and can’t wait to see what you accomplish!
I’m glad you kept this video because by next year she will look back on this video and see how far she came and it really pays off. I started cheer my junior year and I had to work HARD. Because most the girls have been cheering since they could walk. Not only was I captain my senior year but after I graduated I got to become the cheerleading coach for the same team! This winter will be my second year as coach. Not everyone has a similar story with cheerleading but it is important to share. I even passed tryouts for another school! However cheering for two teams got to me mentally and so I left the bigger team stayed closer to my hometown it was a hard decision but cheerleading is hard. Seeing your progress in a short amount of time I can guarantee you that in a years time you will be on that team. My coach told me once “where there’s a will, there’s a way.” That is what pushed me everyday. Also I wanted to cheer like my mom did(I think we have that in common.)
I’ve been doing cheer for 10 yrs and for my friends who needs to be same level the important part is practicing the flexibility! Great job for your progress!
Lilee is such a resilient person and she really inspires me and gives me the energy and motivation to no give up on what your heart desires to do. Lilee was absolutely amazing and I think and hope she makes the team next year 🤞🏼🙏🏼
I’m so proud of LiLee for putting herself out there. I remember when I was applying for med school and got rejection after rejection I felt so discouraged because I worked so hard. It only took one acceptance though and my hard work did pay off. LiLee you can do anything you want if you put your mind to it!
LiLee! Your an absolute super star! 🌟 I’m so proud of you for sharing with us your journey of cheerleading! You’ve been only doing these moves for 3 weeks!! You gave it your all and its true, sometimes it doesn’t work out. But as long as you keep going and work hard and your doing it for yourself and no one else. Thats great! It’s so good for you! Your so strong and handle things like a pro!
Lila’s is an amazing cheerleader! By getting her backhand spring in like 3 weeks and even though she didn’t make the team she is still telling people to never give up! She has so much determination and it is so awesome to see her inspire so many people! Love all of you and never give up Lille even when things get tough. Take your own advice and you will make it through! ❤️💗💖
being a cheerleader on a team is hard. I’m super proud of LiLee for still posting this to show other people just because she didn’t make it dosent mean she is going to stop. for tips I would really try to keep tight when doing your tumbling and hit the movements sharp. Also the best thing and what coaches love to see is a loud beautiful voice because coaches love to hear you and see ur really committed wich I can tell you are. Good luck LiLee I hope the best for you and just keep practicing!
Lilee was amazing for learning all of that in one month! I didn't learn my backhandspring for a year because I was so scared that I would fail at it and now I have more skills than I thought and lilee inspired me to keep going when I am nervous :) It's so cool she decided to post this anyway!
I applaud you LiLee! I was so impressed by your skills. I wish I could do that. This was truly an inspiring video even for me, being 23 years old. Keep shinning!!!
I think you looked awesome out there LiLee!!! I’m so glad to see that your not letting this bring you down but your looking at it from a positive standpoint. Like I tell my own kids..in the end all of your hard work will pay off!! I know at first it’s hard to hear you didn’t make it but I love that you have set a goal and look forward to watching you as you work towards it. 💜
This was much needed thank you so much Lilee! You are amazing and such an inspiration. Especially pushing through the pain and the determination you exude.
SOOOO many people try out for cheer, and so many don’t make it. K she is sooo good and deserves it, however the things she had to learn, is;10x more then most. So proud of her for still posting this for everyone who doesn’t make the team.
Lille you did so good and you will just keep getting better I think you are so amazing I wish you the best you are doing so so good I hope whatever you decide to do next you do amazing because you are amazing I love you all ❤🎉❤❤❤
LiLee, you did such an amazing job and you handled that so well. I didn’t make my 7th grade volleyball team and I was devastated, but I’m still practicing everyday, ready to make the team next year. Good luck to you!!!
I’m no back handspring expert, but I just got my standing back-handspring as well. And Lilees handspring is so good, just one tip to make it amazing and perfect is, try and keep your arms straight and at your ears at all times. Because when I was watching her her arms were kinda bending and far apart. But other than that girly your backhand-spring looks literally amazing!! Also it’s oki u so tried your best and that’s all that matters, thanks for sharing it with us. And I’m not trying to say that your back handspring is bad in anyway, which it is not. Just tryna give you the tips I know
“Don’t give up and work hard” what amazing advice and thank u for sharing this! I wanted something so bad and tried and always failed but I tried the fifth time and it finally worked out!! Lilee’s got this!!!
I think you were absolutely amazing and you are such an amazing girl! Thank you for encouraging me to try out for my schools student government I have been super nervous about it, especially about making it in but you have definitely helped me realize that it’s okay not to make it and as long as you try it is worth. It’s nice to see someone my age be truthful about things that happen and it is okay to cry but you were so mature about how you handled it and I am definitely ready now to try out for student government!
I love how everyone is going out of their way and is supporting LiLee and making her fell better. LiLee I wanted to play softball not knowing how to even hit a ball and i went out their and tried and failed but thats okay because i worked all the season and a the next season came around and i got 2 home runs in the first and second games, What im trying to say is you got this and u can keep working on it and u can get it done!
I thought that Lilee was amazing and I love how she shared her experience with not making the team because it just shows the hard parts of trying out and making not making the team. Good job Lilee and thank you for sharing your experience with us
Love the new intro I haven’t seen it yet it shows all their personality’s. And I know how it feels to tryout for something and not make it I tried out for my band Lead Team and didn’t make it I was very bummed bc it was a bit unfair but I learned from it and I’m already starting to browse ideas for next year on how I can be better. There is always next year you can try out and just work hard for it in spare time so you can make it next year. Never let anything discourage you just keep going for it next year I’m sure u can make it.
I think you did amazing it’s hard to get the bad news trust me at the start of the year I broke my back and missed out on a lot of cheer meets but I kept pushing through and I think you should too. Luv ya Lilly ❤😊
I have been doing cheer for almost 10 yrs now and a few tips i have is that with the two touch when you practice it make sure you have you middle splits good because it help stretch your hamstring and then the more you stretch your hamstring the neater and better they look and if they are going to be doing all-star i would defiantly invest in air mat cube to practice, a panel mat and inflatable gymnast mat cause it simulates the spring floor any way it really help me but every one is different
Not sure if you will see this, but LiLee you did so well. There must have been really tough competition. A tip from a former high school cheerleader really make sure that you focus on sharpness and arm placement. For example, I just noticed that in the fight song when it goes "Thor's hammer hits" that K-shaped motion needs to be sharper and make sure that your arms are super straight. Arm placement and sharpness are one thing that you can control no matter what. Flexibility, jump height, back handspring technique, those all come with time and experience that you just didn't have this year. Never give up trying out, I didn't make it my first time either but I tried again and made it. How well you looked this year means that you can only get better and I honestly think you will and will make it next year, so don't give up.
LiLee, I don’t even know how to tell you how much you’ve improved. You are literally so great at cheering and I am very sorry that you didn’t make the team! You will work even harder and make the all star team and the high school team!!!
One thing that helped me get more tricks is taking tumbling classes or getting private’s with a a coach and working to improve. That has really helped me do better I think it might help LiLee too.
i honestly think she did amazing! i have also tried out for my school cheer team and i didn’t get in either an it honestly was hard. and tryouts are just really harsh and my heart goes out to all of you and after this much of improvement from a MONTH. imagine how fantastic u will be next year💕
You looked absolutely amazing, practiced in pain!! That's awesome!! I gree should of made the team!! I tried out for drill team in middle school didn't make it either, found out my strong point was soft ball! So always a positive some where!! We will see you on the team next year!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️❤️
lilee i did cheer for 7 years! so just a bit of advice with your toe touch when you lift your legs you are putting your chest down try and just bring your legs up and stay high! and with your back had spring you are doing good you just got to keep your legs straight and together you took the news soooo well ❤️💙 stay safe 🥰
Hi Lilee! I have one recommendation as a 3rd year cheerleader. When I was learning my back handspring I had Velcro around my ankles and knees so that I would know if my legs came apart! It really helped me. Hope this helps!
Oh my gosh!! Can I just say that mom is the biggest cheerleader of them all? 😃 Just hearing her be So happy and So proud is just the best thing ever 🥺. And the way you teach LiLee, so gentle but with clear instructions and giving real but positive feedback; Everyone needs a person like you as their rolemodel. Yay LiLee!! I don't know how the video will end yet, (only 4 minutes in haha) but what ever happens; You did great and working hard to become a better version of yourself is always rewarding wether you make it to your goal on the first try or not! ---- NayVee just bumping around on that big roll; I feel like that really shows her personality haha! Such a kind, happy young girl that is luckily able to live the worry free life she always deserved ♡
I tried out for my cheer team with all my friends and we waited for 5 hours to see the results I was so scared…. But I made it and Im so sorry Lilee didn’t make it but everyone is so proud of you to show that something’s aren’t perfect or meant to be.
Lilee has such a wonderful attitude. I just wanted to throw in that if she decided to pivot and focus her efforts and hard work in another area of her life, that doesn't equate to "giving up." Being resilient after a rejection is what's important, even if you bounce back in a different direction.
gosh, Lillie I have cheered my whole life and I still can’t do the things you do!! I’m so glad you’ve pushed through you are so amazing!! And a great person!!! love ya ❤️
I Am So Proud Of You Lilee And Dw Because I Never Succeeded In My Dream Either,I Wanted To Become A GoalKeeper And Did Training At Home Thinking I Was Good,But When I Went To Play As A GoalKeeper Everyone Was Telling Me That I’m Not Good,And That I Need More Practise And So I Thought They Were Right,But A Wise Person Once Told Me That You Should Never Give Up Your Dream Even If Someone Tells You Your Not Good. Stay Strong My Fav Nen Girl.🥰❤️I’m Here For You If You Need It. -Zuzu.
Lille don’t ever give on the pain just keep going you are great at what you do you will be great with a little bit of practice. I love you channel I have been watching you for almost 2 years and you guy motivate me to do cheer.I met you guys at a restaurant and they were all so friendly
Thanks for sharing Lilee! It was encouraging and wonderful that you shared this with us. You looked fabulous! I suspect they might have worried over your wrists, rather than your skills. So, next year you won’t be so sore from all the intense practice and will be a sure pick! I greatly admire your dedication to try out and practice! That was awesome. You are going to be able to do great things.
