Let Us Discover

Terminology plays an important role in the understanding of contexts and specialized

texts. Understanding the intricate terminological details of the technical and scientific
contexts helps us to comprehend what the main message of the word, and it helps
specialists to transmit the content more effectively. Below are the different
terminologies used in cheer dance:
1. Arabesque: One leg is down straight and the other leg is behind you almost at
a ninety-degree angle to your back.
2. Aerial: A cartwheel without hands touching the ground or floor.
3. Base: In acrobatic gymnastics, the role of the pair and group competition that
requires strength and balance. The base is usually an older or larger athlete.
4. Buckets: A move where a cheerleader holds their arms straight out in front,
fists facing down, almost as if holding the handle of a bucket in each hand.
5. Broken T: Extend your arms from your shoulders so that they are parallel with
the ground, like for a T, but bend both arms at the elbows and bring them in
toward your shoulders so that your forearms are facing up.
6. Candlesticks: A cheer motion where a cheerleader extends their arms out in
front with fists facing each other as if they were holding a lit candle in each
hand.
7. Cartwheel: Sideways rotary movement of the body. It is performed by bringing
the hands to the floor one at a time while the body inverts. When both hands
are on the floor, the legs travel over the body and feet return to the floor one at
a time, ending with the performer standing upright.
8. Clap: Bend your elbows and bring your arms in tight to your body. Your elbows
should be pulled in and pointed down, and your hands should be just below
your chin. Bring your hands together, keeping them open with your fingers
facing up toward your chin, so that both palms are touching.

tumbling.
