Cameron Chandler

Hi! My name is Cameron Chandler (a lot of you may know me as Cameron Poole; I just got married in October!) I am so excited to be able to come back to Bravo, where I took dance and gymnastics for 10 years, to teach these cheer classes and help prepare for cheer tryouts! I cheered at Louisiana Tech University on the blue squad for 3 years during my 4 years of college! I took the last year off to focus on graduate school. Louisiana Tech has 3 different cheer squads. They are the white, red, and blue squad, where blue is the highest skilled team. Going into college as a freshman on the blue team was very intimidating, but I quickly made several friends that always encouraged me to do my best, which is what cheerleading is all about, cheering people on! I learned so many skills throughout my 3 years of college cheer that I never thought I would ever be capable of doing. Some helpful advice is to always believe in yourself and don’t be scared to try new things! This really helped me as I tried some very scary stunts. Cheer not only taught me a variety of skills, but also taught me several life lessons. I learned how to be apart of a team and help other teammates when they needed it. I learned the responsibility of showing up to practice on time. I also learned that younger people looked up to me a lot and that I always needed to be a good role model for them. Throughout these classes, I will teach skills that will prepare you for tryouts all while preparing you to be the best teammate you can be!
