Cheerleading is performed by (generally) several people, doing various flips, twists, dances, and other various movies, in addition to shouting certain lyrics in order to attempt to raise spirits at various sporting events and pep rallies. I say attempt because as of more recent years, people aren't quite as excited by them as they used to be. Furthermore, it used to be more about being spunky, but in later years it's been more about wearing shorter tighter outfits and doing more sexual grinding than peppy jumping. Don't be mistaken though, the original basis is still there.
