Aqua Elite
LEVEL 1 CHEERLEADING
Aqua Elite is proud to offer level 1 cheerleading with our U12 competitive team, Mist!
Level 1 cheerleading is the foundation level for competitive cheer. While there are strict rules on stunts and skills, our U12s have performed some wonderfully creative and exciting routines, which still include some difficult tricks! You don’t have to have loads of experience for level 1 cheer – many of your teammates at this level will still have lots to learn.
Our annual summer tryouts are your opportunity to show us what you can do and progress in your cheerleading journey with Aqua, so make sure you’re always up to date on the latest news by following us on social media!

What Can We Do At Level 1?
Despite being known as a foundation level, Level 1 cheerleading is anything but boring and basic. Mist is for those who have decided they want to make more of a commitment to cheer beyond recreational classes, meaning we are driven, energetic, experimental, and creative in every single practice! At Level 1, we focus on skills such as:
- Basic stunts and pyramids
- Introductory tumbling, including rolls, cartwheels, handstands and round-offs
- Jumps, cheer motions and choreography
- Performance skills, timing and synchronisation
One of the biggest focuses at Level 1 is developing safe stunt technique. Athletes learn how to work together as bases, backspots and flyers while building confidence through stable, well-executed stunts and transitions.
Our Coaches
Having competed across every level of the sport, our coaches understand exactly what it takes to help athletes succeed and what competition judges are looking for. Their expertise, attention to detail, and creative choreography ensure every routine is designed to showcase our athletes at their very best.
Each of our coaches is fully trained, qualified, and background-checked to ensure a safe and supportive environment in which your child can learn, grow, and discover just how much they’re capable of!

GET INVOLVED!
We hold annual tryouts each July to give more cheerleaders the opportunity to progress to Level 1 from our recreational classes or prep teams. Our 2026 tryouts are on Saturday 18th July- register today!
