I also cheered for Louisiana Cheer Force, one of the most prominent All-Star gyms in Louisiana, where we won numerous local competitions, competed at the National and World's levels in Orlando, Florida and were even featured in the Movie Big Momma's House 2. I also danced for Defrances Academy of Dance and Tari's School of Dance where I was on the competition teams for both studios and have won numerous local and national awards with both studios.
