Well, what do you have a passion for? Dance or cheer? At a typical dance team tryout, you will be asked to do turns... doubles and triples, usually, fouettes, and turns in second. They'll probably ask you to do some leaps, and you'll probably learn and combination or dance. At a cheer tryout, you'll do jumps, and tumbling... like handsprings and walkovers. You might learn a cheer with some choreography. Consider stunting, too. Do you think you're strong enough for stunting? When I did cheer, I started off as a flyer, but then switched to being a base.. and it was so hard for me. So consider your strength. But it all comes down to what you like better. Think of it this way- if you were told you could never dance or cheer again... what would you miss more?? That might help you make a decision.

i would say whatever you most want to do but, as far as tryouts go... dancing you usually do a dance, and cheerleading whatever they ask you to do.

splits are more important in dance than they are in cheer. Cheer tryouts will ask you to show of your tumbling, then ask to see your jumps you then do the cheer the chant and the dance you learned at the clinics and your done its that easy.
