Motor City Cheer

HALF-SEASON PREP TEAMS ARE STARTING UP SOON!

Looking for something for your athlete to do this school year? Half-Season teams run from September 14th through the end of April! Come train with the best, we can’t wait to meet you!

Our kinda chic. ✨

The ones who have followed us on our journey have likely started to notice a decline in our posting. We thought it was time to let you know why.

Moving forward, we are choosing to post less of our athletes because their safety matters more than our content.

As youth sports organizations, we have a responsibility to think carefully about what we put online, who can access it, and how those images can be used.

So, less content doesn’t mean less pride, it means protecting the kids we’re trusted with.

Gymnasts & cheerleaders across the state are coming together to learn about nutrition and how to properly take care of their body! Parents will join us for portions throughout the weekend so you can learn, too!

Motor City Cheer is incredibly excited to welcome Betsy McNally Laouar, nationally recognized sports nutritionist, coach, and author of You Can’t Flip on Empty: Fueling the Fifth Event of Gymnastics, to our gym for a special event open to athletes and families from all over Michigan!

In a sport culture where athletes are often taught to push harder, eat less, ignore exhaustion, and “just be tough,” Betsy’s work is changing the conversation. You Can’t Flip on Empty focuses on what she calls the “fifth event” of gymnastics (and cheer!): nutrition, recovery, sleep, mental training, and the way we support athletes outside of practice. Her work emphasizes that under-fueling, burnout, poor recovery, and unhealthy relationships with food don’t just impact performance, they impact kids’ lives!

This event is NOT just for MCC athletes. School cheerleaders, all star athletes, gymnasts, coaches, and parents are all welcome, and you do not need to be affiliated with Motor City Cheer to participate.

Parents will actively participate in portions of the event because this information matters just as much for the adults supporting athletes as it does for the athletes themselves. If we want stronger, healthier, more confident kids in sports, we have to create environments where they are properly fueled, educated, and supported.

Opportunities to learn from someone like Betsy do not come around often, and we do not take this one for granted. If you care about your athlete’s health, longevity, confidence, relationship with food, and overall well-being, this is a conversation worth showing up for’

Registration is now open. We would love to see athletes and families from all over Michigan join us.
