WRC 2011-2012 auditions


Yesterday commenced the Washington Redskins Cheerleaders tryouts for the 2011-2012 season. Actually, auditions began on Saturday, but the veterans (weird calling myself a veteran!) didn't have to go in until yesterday. Here is a picture of all of the returning veterans this year - my rookie class is 10-strong! :)



All of the girls who made it through the first two cuts on Saturday came yesterday and will also be performing at finals, vying for a one of the 40 spots on the team. At the Finals show this upcoming Sunday, everyone will be performing one of three dances, performing the same sideline routine, walking in the opening, and doing a bikini walk. It really is entertainment, folks!

This week, we will learn a total of three dances, a sideline routine, the opening, and perfect our swimsuit walk. I don't know if you've ever walked half naked in a bikini on a stage, but believe me, it is not easy - even if you look like Cindy Crawford. Tonight, we have a swimsuit photo shoot and practice, then practice the three days following. Contrary to popular belief, we do not just automatically break into dance in perfect unison like Glee or the Brady Bunch - we actually practice about four hours per night! So I urge you to come and support me and all the girls that have been working tirelessly on their fitness, look, and dance technique for the past few months. I will post more pictures as I take them this week!!




Me and Mini Me - my girl Maya made it to finals!
Fingers crossed for her :)
