I’ve attended classes for more than seven years and compete in gymnastics, dance and cheerleading; but it is not just about competitions and classes. It’s about having fun and be free to express yourself, where everyone is willing to be a friend.

It has influenced my life in more ways than I ever thought it would. It gave me the skills I needed to be who I am today. It is my refuge if I’m ever feeling anything less than happy. Cheer Fusion taught me, and countless others, to always be the best you can be and never give up, to never say “I can’t”.

Going to classes is something I always look forward to and I proudly represent Cheer Fusion in the community with time and effort in any way I can.

I dread the day I leave Goulburn for university and may not be able to attend Cheer Fusion any longer.

Until then, Cheer Fusion is a place I call home.
