Rules & Policies

Rachel's House of Cheer Rules & Policies

Purpose/Expectations

Rachel’s House of Cheer was created to help athletes involved in cheerleading, gymnastics, and/or dance grow their tumbling skills for their sport.  It is our goal for each child to have fun and build confidence during our lessons/classes while working on the specific skills they have come to learn/perfect. Safety is always the top priority. If a coach determines that your athlete is not yet ready to begin learning or performing a specific skill, RHOC reserves the right to delay progression until proper prerequisites are met. All skill progressions are followed to ensure the athlete is physically and safely prepared to advance.
