Here's what Emilia's student Maya Brown says she likes about cheerleading:

"I really enjoy being a cheerleader for several reasons. First, being the only child I have a group of friends that I consider sisters on a daily basis. We work hard in order to meet all of the many challenges of tumbling, stunting and cheering. We work hard at every practice and tumble harder at Emilia's. I love my coaches and instructors as if they are my parents outside of my home. These are the reasons I participate in tumbling class 3 days a week and practice every day for cheerleading."
