dance team tryouts??

Question:

What do coaches look for at pon poms/ dance team tryouts??

And also does anyone know how to do a good kick line kick or what stretches for kicking??

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: so judges at tryouts always look for smiles. if you look like your having fun it wont matter if you suck. use really cute facials. also stretches are very important for kicks. touch your toes and hold it for 20 seconds. do a straddle and hold each stretch for 20 seconds. i usually stretch while watching TV or while I'm studying. just keep practicing and you will get good trust me. practice smiling while do kicks in front of the mirror. if you feel stupid for too many facials you are doing them right... thats what my coach always tell us before a competition. you will be nervous and might forget so just make sure that whenever you practice the routine or kicks you are using facials, then they will come naturally. i know how much I'm talking about facials and thats because they truly are one of the most important things. good luck. i am sure you will do fine. and if you dont make it dont worry theres always next year. show lots of spirit!!!
