I don't have many talents,but I can play basketball pretty well. I can coach it too. In basketball you have to have alot of determination, heart, and soul. It don't matter how big you are,or how strong you are. It matters about how you respond to a person crossing you over,or shooting a jumpshot on you, or something like that. Anyways it's all about attitude ,and how well you play with others. I mean that's why Duke has so many Ncaa basketball championships, because they play together so well in man to man. PLus they communicate or talk to each other.If you was to put mic upon top of a basketball court at Duke University. You would think it's a rock concert it's so loud. All I'm saying is I know a lot about the game ,and I can teach or coach however you want to say it about it. I love the game as a kid ,and I still love it today.

I don't have many talents but I do enjoy playing various instruments. I can't say I am good at all the instruments I play, but I am good at the guitar and bass guitar. I don't play eletric guitar but i play acoustic because of its warm sound, and play bass because of its deep low rumble. The guitar is the easist instrument to learn yet the hardest to master. Anyone who has fingers can play guitar but it take a genuis to write a master piece. To be a good guitar player you must learn the basics: strumming/picking and finger positions. If you know that an entire world of opportunity is opened. Continue practicing this, even if it doesnt sound good at first. Create basic patterns or just freestyle. After you know how to pick, study musical notes which would require to go online or buy a book. You can read music two ways: Classicaly, with the musical alphabet, or Tabs, which is number-to-finger postions. After you know a couple of chords just make up a rythm and tempo and just mix and mash notes. Always make sure your guitar is tuned in this order from bottom to top EADGBE and for a bass guitar, which only has four strings, is EADG. I generally play in a private place such as my room or if there is no private place go outside. Then eventually play in a public setting if you are comfortable with your new musical skills. Maybe if you are brave enough make up lyrics and make a song. If you have friends that play, start a band. Play any music you like because the musical world is full of opinions. There is many instruments out there so look into exotic instruments because a differant instrument may be your calling. In the music world, persistance is key. Music is not only skill but the natural ability of creativeness. Music has the power to change people's opinion on the world, almost like mind control, so use this power for good. Learning to play an instrument is in the mind as well as a skill.

Well , I dont have many things I am good at because im shy . But there is a few things im good at . I can write very neat ,type really fast and make up very good stories ,so I would probally be a journalist .I no how to do that . When you become a writer you have to no how to think of things from the top of your mind . You would have to be able to take any topic and make it into something funny or silly or fictional or realistic . In order to type fast you have to learn where your keys are . If you have a phone with a key board you probally know where the keys are so just take those skills and put them into writing . When you want to write neat take your time and go slow . That always helps people to read your writing if you cant print your work . In order to be a writer , you have to know how to do many skills and take different things and make them into one . There is also sommething else in good at . Im good at making things like pictures , posters , and different sorts of things . So if I wanted to teach something else it would probally be an art teacher . I love painting and drawing . To be an art teacher you would have know how to draw and teach . I am really good at painting and I love it so I would do best at that . You would also have to know everything there is to know about art and what supplies youll need and what things to have and know how to do . Art isnt that easy it takes a good artst to know how to do something like that . As you draw take your time and earase if you need to and when painting take you time and try your hardest . It doesnt take much effort when you love what you do and your good at . Well thats all I want to write about . By Mr. Smith !!!! (:

I don’t have many talents like some people do. I play football pretty well. I am very musically talented. I am smart (most of the time). I guess that I will choose video games. I will rock the house with NCAA. The same with Madden. I would say my favorite game is Forza Motor Sport 2. For all of you non-gamers out there, this is a race car game. It was only two dollars!!! I laughed my butt off at the store when I figured out how much it cost. I got it because my friend told me to get it. I am the master at it! I drift around turns. I crash into everyone. It is a thrilling game!!! I love playing the derby online with my friends. I have Xbox live! If you have this console or anything like it, I highly suggest getting it. I have a lot of hobbies, but this one is one that I am good at and enjoy!!!

Hello, I honestly don't have many talents. It's not like I'm some amazing softball player or anything. I have lots of different hobbies that could probably be considered talents. I cheer, i don't really know if that could be considered a talent; more of a hobby. I dance, that could be a talent. I'm not like Amazing or anything at it. I'm good, it's just something i love to do. No matter what kind of dance; jazz, hip-hop, ballet, or just dancing around my room. I love to dance. I also do photography, I love being in the pictures but I prefer taking them. I have done lots of different types of pictures. Portraits of people, random off-guard photos, nature pictures. I always have my camera with me. You never know when a good photo opportunity will pop up. There's so many things to take pictures of. That's just another talent I have , if you can call that a talent. I also sing. I love singing , I have done solos for chorus, Regional talent shows. Everywhere I go, I'm always singing or humming. Music is my life, & I couldn't live without it. I guess those are my talents, not many of them , but that's them.

I think I'm a expert at Social Studies,but I'm not going to be a Social Studies teacher, or anything that deals with Social Studies. I like it because I like history, in my free time I'll read a history book or something like that. I don't know why I like it, but it's interesting to me,especially wars.

I may not have a bunch of talents , but I do have some. I play football okay, I am a great wrestler, and i can play some video games pretty good. I am going to go with wrestling. I feel better with that than any other one. I say that, because I have done it for ten years, and I have sense in what I am doing. I can also coach this sport to. Every Tuesday after wrestling practices I give a few lessons to some new begginers for money. As of right now thats how I am going to pay for college. I hope to go to college, and wrestle for a division one team. also chose this, because its my life If I want to do that I would have to practice a little harder than I am. Ibelive it or not. Every morning I wake up to go to school, I think of wrestling and that gets me up. And this is what my talent is.

My least favorite team is the Kansas City Chiefs.I always play them on quick game. I put the diffuculty at all pro. All pro is the second to the hardest diffuculty, but I still whop them. One time I played them in a 5 minuet quarter game. The score turned out 79 to 0 . I won. I also own some colledge football games. I like the Alamba Crimson Tide team . No offense Mr. Smith, I really dont like South Carlonia. My most favorite games are war games. I like Modern Warefare 2. I play oline. Im level 53 out of 70.

Im not good at much.One thing im good at is baseball.Icould probably coach it.I know most of the rules.The ones I dont I could learn.Im good at catching the ball.Im good at hitting the ball.I like it alot.Its pretty fun too.If you wanted to play it, you would have to know how to hit.You would also have to beable to catch.You would have to have reflexs too.So its pretty hard for some people.If u wanted I could teach you.You need to try it.You could like it.The thing is you would have to keep track of the ball.You cant be afraid to stand in front of people.You would need suplies too.Need a glove,ball,and a bat.So try it out.And have some fun.

I'm not really good at a lot of things . Well there is one thing that I I'm good at and that is braiding hair . Well at first when I started I wasn't really good but down the line I got better and better at what I did .And here is some thing you need to about braiding hair .First you have to have a lot of . Second you have to be fast and the braid has to be really neat .And when some one ask you can you do the braids they want and you really can't do just say that you don't know how to do it because that is a wast of money and time .And have a an okay price don't have like braids that look like they would normally would be 45 and you charged them a 100 that's not good .And make sure you love what you do.

I am good at multiple things, one of them is setting up a fish tank. The first thing you have to do is clean the decorations and tank. Too clean to decorations you run the under water for about five minutes. Then you have to wash the tanks inside with soap and water. The reason why you wash the tank and its decorations are because the chemicals and debris from them can hurt or even kill them.

hey my name is Garrett. i dont know if im an expert at football,but i play it and no alot obout it. fisrt thing you need to know .. the field . the field is or should be 100 yards long. with a two endzones and the ends . there is a field goals at each end zone . ohh and there are to side lines for the the coaches and players who are not out there . thats pretty much it about the field . now lets get to stuff you need to know about how to play football. there is a offence , defence and special teams . im going to tell you about offence and defence but im not gonna talk about special teams that much i dont wanna go into that much detail.offence is the team that has the ball an is trying to get a touchdown. a touchdown is when you enter the touch down with the ball and theres not a flag on the play. a flag is pretty much just a pentalty . both offence and defence can get a flag.the offence is at least trying to get a first down on every play. a first down is when the offence gains 10 yard before the fourth down . but some teams try to get the first down even on fourth down.defence is the team that is trying tto stop the offene from getting a first down...thats pretty much a short but sweet sentece about defence. and thats a long story short about football

I dont think im an expert at anything. I guess I would be good at making people happy. If one of my friends are upset or mad I can get them to calm down and put a smile on ther face. Im kind of used to it by now because half of my friends are that way. It helps by all ways havein a smile and a good attitude. The reason im like that is because I get hyper real easy. Dont get me wrong I get mad or upset to, I just try to hide it.

I really can't think of anything that I'm good at so I'm. Going to go with skateboarding . Skateboarding can be challanging if you don't have good balance . When you need to pratice balance the best place to go is to a railroad track . But watch out for trains ! Once you got balance down then you need to bring out your board . Once you got your board out you need to get on it . You nned to make sure you got your footing down . Make sure your front foot is straight out . Your back foot needs to be straight across the board . Put ur back foot out . Slowly start pushing your foot off the ground . Then start going alittle faster . Once you got a reasonable speed for you start out . Bring your foot back up and make sure itz in the right position . Now you are skating ! Once you got it down pat start going faster . Soon you'll be speeding down the road . You can start praticing tricks once you feel comfortable on the board . So have fun ! And be safe ! Make sure yopu wear a helemt and saftey equiptment . Hope you have fun .

I am an expert in basketball & video games. I am an expert in basketball because I am good at it. But the bad thing is I have low confidence. So when I play with certain people I don't do that good, but I try to raise my confidence all the time. I am an expert in video games because well I play them all the time and it only takes me a few minutes to master it. So I have high confidence in that because I'm not around anybody. I master basketball in my freethrows because I think of B.E.E.F. It stands for B= Balance, E= Eyes, E= Elbow, and F= Followthrough. And videogames I can't explain it. I guess it's just a gift.

If I were to become a good driver I would have to watch a professional,and I would have to watch him carefully. And most of the time he would do things that would help you on the road like look both ways, and be carefull around your enivroment, and the people who walk the streets at night and be sure to have your head lights on at night. And make sure your car is safe to drive like checking the tires and make sure your gas tanke is full and your ac works if not you would sweet in there. Driving at night could bre a bad thing cause you could get hit by a deer and wind up in a hostpial and be badly injured and thats why I would watch a prifessional.

Yhe thing that i am best at is writing music , and singing . Its just a great way to relieve stress , and ease your mind . But it take a lot of work , and time . I really enjoy it ! I've always love musice and wanted to be a singer . But being a singer is very hard , you have to make sure you write songs that make since and that people will understand . Im starting on a couple of songs with myy best friend . She has everythig we need to record like : a microphone , headsets &nd a music app on her pc . We go in hard whenever we sing . It super fun , sometimes we dont even get through the whole songs . We can use different amps to chanqe our voices &nd make them sound cool &nd better . It takes a long time form us to write done lyrics so most of the tyme we just freesyle . We always laugh at each other when we sing , because sometimes we sound kinda stupid . We even make our own music from scratch . Most of the songs we write are about love &nd life . We get so caught up sometimes that we for get that we are just ordinary kids . We always have a positive mind set about everything we try to do . If you faith , and believe in yourself you should go far . We wan to be big someday , but for now we'er just kids !

I can't say I'm an expert at anything , but I'm pretty good at a lot of things. I have mutltiple things that I do , and all of them have to do with music. The thing I do best is , play the piano/keyboard. I started playing when I was about 7 years old , and started taking lessons when I was 8 , and stopped taking them when I was 11. Another thing that I do is sing , now that I have been doing since I was 6 years old , and I'm really good at it. I'm from a musically experienced family , so thats where I get it from. I also , kinda , play the drums , and a little bit of the guitar . I would say , a lot of practice , hard work , and dedication would get you to master any of these skills. I know I haven't mastered any of these things , but I'm not that far from it . I've gotten to that I play for different churches , and average from $50 - $100 , every service. I also sing for other churches , but I sing for mine. I'm now planning on , trying to start my own record label , but its a few more things I need to , be able to start it . One day , I want to be famous . Thats why , I try so hard to do my best , when it comes down to music . It's not always easy . Sometimes , you get stuck , trying to play a chord , or something on the piano/keyboard . Or , sometimes you can't hit a certain note , andd I get fustrated , but I still try . Some people didn't believe me , when I said , I actually made music , until I posted one of my songs on the internet , and everyone liked it . Then , I had a lot of people wanting to do a song together . Now , I'm working on a lot of things . It's just a dream , for now .

One of my skills or Talents Is Singing , I Really Don't Know How Any One Could Master This Skill Because Not Everyone Can Sing. They Could Probably Take Singing Lessons. Another thing that i'm good at doing is drawing any one can master this skill if they're patient. You just have to take your time while drawing, and the picture would turn out just fine. For Me Drawing Is An Easy Thing To Do. It's Been Something That I've Done Since 1st Grade. My Mom tought me a lot of things about drawing that i didn't even know. Things like how to shade the picture , and how to make it 'Come TO Life' as she would say. You just have to have passion for it. You have to love what you do. You Can't Master Anything If you don't have a passion for it.

i dont have alot of talent.the best thig i knoe how to do is talk nand text.thats really my talents.i dont think im good at alot of stuff but that. i can teach you if you wanna learn how.to talk its not really thats hard. all you have to do is say some words and you are talking.then texing is just like talking but you dont have to say anything.all you have to do is think about wat your going to say and just text it.then when some one calls you can talk but dont be anti-social to them.because they may not want to talk to you anymore.

What I am a master at is using computers. To be a master at this you need to not be afraid to take things apart. Afraid to learn, or be afraid to be shocked because when you take them apart you would most likely get shocked. You need to know what you are doing, and be use to trail and error. It takes time to learn. It is an interesting subject, and it is really fun. You will learn alot about computers and how they work. It teaches you about all your main subjects, and it can give you a job. Their are many jobs in the line of computers, and if you are a master with them you can make alot of money. Plus it is easy to do once you get good. It is fun, easy, and you could make a living off of computer. A lot of people enjoy working with computers, and you would probably like it too.

I'm not sure if I have any talents. I cheer, but that is more of a hobby. I love when the crowd gets really pumped when we do our dance and cheers. I only been on the team one year so its not a talent but I do pretty good so it could be. I play soccer too. Soccer is really fun, and I love playing it. I just started play it this year. I am still learning about it and all the plays but one day I might be really good so it could be a future talent.

i wouldnt say im great but i enjoy cheerleading. people say cheerleading is a stupid sport. cheerleaders cheer people up when they are down. when we mess up it makes other people laugh bringing them into a good mood. cheerleading is serious though. at the pep rally when we put those people over our heads takes alot of work, because only to groups got to be in front. some of our flyers dont try their best and it can effect all of us. another difficult thing about cheerleading is leanring a dance and maybe even about 40 cheers. we all have fun doing it to. being a cheerleader i would say is for a person who wants to have fun, make people laugh, and also be a little serious. if your to serious you cant have fun. cheerleaders are also taken as stupid because of how they act on the feild.thats not true that their stupid. they act happy and fun to make people smile.what you dont need be a cheerleader is to be bossy and rude to the opponents. thats not nice and if people figure out that wouldnt make people happy.so when you try out for cheerleading ask questions to show your willing to learn. try your hardest.most of all show a little bit of funny and happy attitude. you need to show leadership to. dont forget your facials!!

I may not be the smartest but I want to fulfill my dreams. When I grow up, I want to be a fashion designer. Some people say that fashion designing doesn’t take much but it is harder than people think. To be a fashion designer, you have to know math. You have to be able to get your calculations and measurements right and you have to get them right in a short amount of time. Sometimes, you have deadlines and being good at math comes in handy at those times because you won’t always have a calculator everywhere you go. You have to be able to sew in straight lines. You also have to know your materials. You can’t just pull something off the shelf and start sewing. Some materials just don’t go together and you have to know that. As you can see, there is a lot more that goes into fashion designing.

My talent at lest in my opinion is drawing.I have just recently been able to draw the way I wanted to.I guess I started getting into drawing in the 4th or 5th grade.At the time I was really into a show called Total Drama Island.I was in LOVE with it.Now looking back the show wasn't even that good,but try telling that to a 11 year old.So I wanted to draw fan art,and I wasn't good at it.I keep trying and trying I wanted to draw good so badly.Every day during class I would draw and draw.Which explains why in elementry school I made C's and low B's.At the end of 5th grade I was watching T.V. During the middle of the night,and came across a anime called Gunslinger girl(I think I spelled that wrong sorry).I love the grapics.It was so pretty.The day after I started drawing anime,and again it looked bad but still I tryed.In the 6th grade I found another anime that I love so much more than Total Drama Island.Full Metal Alchemist.I fell hard for it by drawing it every second of the day ,and watching it every second of the night.I got better slowly,but at the end of the day the drawings still look ugly.In 6th grade I got in to alot of animes.Which gave me examples on my artwork(I also wrote alot of fan fiction,and sadly I still do).In the 7th grade my anime still wasn't good.My drawing got good at the end of 7th grade(thank you youtube).I also learned a few things from one of my family members which helped me alot!A huge tip when drawing anime is the height.For men after you make his face you grab the size of that, and go down eight times.For women you do the same thing,but only six times.You write a little line at the place you stop counting at.Then you do the body,and hair.Which I can't explain very well.Well thats my talent.

Most people are really talented! Well, not all, but most. The one thing I'm really good at, is getting hyper! See, when people need a person to go to the party, I might not even know them, but they know that I get that party pumping. It takes hard work just like any other thing someone might be good at. I'll share with you some ways you can get just as hyper as I do; well i don't think anyone can get to that level, but you sure can try! The first thing is to get monsters! But in my case, my parents don't let me have mosters, so the next resort would be Mountain Dew. Another thing you have to do is drink those amazing drinks! Next, you can't be shy, at all! You have to be quite loud and obnoxious. Just be carefull, and don't over do it. "Over doing it", is called a hyper attack , or you could just get a stomach ache from all the monsters. I really hope this helped someone reading this! So, find a party , and get hyper!

I am good at helping my friends and giving them good advise. I am good at this because, my friends always take my advise and when they do it works. What I do is I always talk about things in life so that if something like that ever happens I can help the person who is asking me. I would always debate about it with an adult I know very well or one of my closet friends. It is good that I do this so that I can get two different point of views on this subject. I would debate until we agree what it is like if what they say is right or what I say is right. That is usually how debating goes. I like debating about things with people because to me it is fun and I like talking and I love to think. I am always thinking I think before I speak, I think about what could happen or of something that has already happened and what could have been done so that thing would have been better or of how it couldnt have happened. it is good for someone to think about all different kinds of things. If someone like to help people like i do then it is important that they think about those kinds of things. Since i do it all the time i am really good at it. When somebody has asked me a question i think about what they had asked and then what i feel is the best answer that is what i tell them. I give people advise on relationships and things like that i know i am very young but i just take the time to think about these kinds of things. I will help anyone who really needs my help even if it is some really little i would still help that person. think of everything as a big deal. I dont react to it as a big deal but i treat it like it is. It may not make since but to me it does. So my expertise is to help people. Doing this makes me feel like i have done something good. And that is what my expertise are.

I don't really have many talents ,but if I had to choose some I would have to say horseback riding(which I love to do),singing,and writing. Now, I wouldn't try to major in any of these, but I love to do them. In my spare time of course. In the paragraphs below I will further explain why I love each of these talents.

I have a couple things that I am good at. One of them would have to be softball. I have played it since I was about eight. It's pretty much all I do. I guess you could say it's my life. Another thing that I am good at would be writing. I enjoy writing on topics that interest me and that I can relate to. Another thing that I am good at is doing things with computers. I could tell somebody who never used a computer before how to use one. I don't think it would be that hard. Another thing that I can do is sing. I would say I'm a decent singer. I've been on chorus since fourth grade. I went to District Honor Choir in 7th gradee. I hope I make it again this year! :) These are just a few of the things I can do. They include softball,writing,and technolgy,singing. I feel very blessed to have good grades and be a good athlete. I am happy I can balance these things. These are my talents. I hope you enjoyed. Thank you!

I'm not great at much. If I really think about it though I would have choose gaming as my topic. The reason I choose gaming is because I'm some what good at it. Gaming is really the only thing. To me gaming isn't just pressing buttons I play strategy games. One example is minecraft. Minecraft is a game were you have to live off the world at least that's how I see it. You also build things like homes, swords, etc. I also like action games like infamous 2. I like running around and playing the game. The guy in the game has electric power. There's a group that wants him dead so the man has to kill them. so in the game your killing bad guy ,how old school. The only games I don't like are sports games. Because sports are supposed to get you outside. Playing games though is so much more than pressing buttons for sure. the point in a game is to have fun all ways. games are or every one to have fun. So just have fun with it.

I dont have many talents,but I am an expert at kids! When your mom has about 4 kids you learn how to change a diper and fix a bottle. For some odd reason I am super good with little ones. Their screaming and crying doesnt bother me. Although if a person is screaming and crying it does bother me. kinda wierd right? Well if you want to be good with kids like I am you need really only one thing. That would be PATIENTS! If you dont have that then you might as well walk right through a tornado and expect your hair to be perfect when you get out. Impossable right. So same situation here. Those of you that are still reading and havnt givin up because you dont have patients you should know its better to work with 5-6 year olds than it is newborns or older kids. Newborns are very demanding and take a long time to master I just mastered them. Older kids want to test your abilities and see what they can get you to do. You need to make sure they know that you know whats expected and that they will behave the same way they do when there parents are there. You need to make sure they are happy but dont just give them everything they want at the same time. Let them be a little independent, but not so much that they think they can do what ever. These are some basic rules and guides for you if you need more help then you can contact me at [email protected]

I don't have very many talents. the ones I do have make up for the others I can't do. The ones I can not many people can do. The one I am most proud of is that I can ride horses pretty well. I have been riding all my life. So it comes naturally to me. I really enjoy riding. People always tell me how good I am. I like to jump the most! I can jump three and a half feet right now. I stopped horse riding lessons. I am really upset that I did. Hopefully I can start back this winter so it isn't as hard on the horses. People think that its easy to do it. It is harder than it looks. People look at me ride and think they can do what level im at right now, and they try but they cant do it. its sad though because i kinda stopped riding after the accident happened. Im not scared. Just scared to get attached again. I really miss it! but now that im talking about it I think I might get back into it. I am kinda glad I wrote this. Now I can go back to my usual ways. well thats my talent and I love it!

I think I good at puzzles. There are many diffrent types of puzzles. There are crossword puzzles. I'm pretty good at those. There at just regular old puzzles. Puzzles go way back thousands of years ago. The Great Pyrimd of Gaza is an example of a puzzle. They had to figure out where everything went. You have to have focus. You have to smart to figure out a puzzle. You have to think outside the box. You must be very creative on what puzzle you are doing. You need clues or hints on how to figure out the puzzles.

My biggest skill is hunting.I have gone hunting with my dad since I was six.I can only think of a few th ings to make it easier.The firt thing is to get patient.You need to sit still barely even breathing for hours at a time.The next thing is to learn how to reload easily.If you dont master reloading you may as well be shooting the floor.I remember one time with my dad at my first time shotgun hunting I had nothing in the chamber and I saw a huge eight point and didnt know that you needed to load one into the chamber.So I missed my chance and it dry fired.Last and most important pracice like a madman.

You need to have no distractions while you are doing your puzzle. Make sure if you are stuck then take a break and then resume. You can have extra help for someone like your friend. It always help to have someone that thinks diffrents. They can think the in a way that you can't. That is about the knowlege you need to do a puzzle. Puzzles can save your life one day. Puzzle are alway a fun past time too.

I don’t have many talents like some people do. I play football pretty well. I am very musically talented. I am smart (most of the time). I guess that I will choose video games. I will rock the house with NCAA. The same with Madden. I would say my favorite game is Forza Motor Sport 2. For all of you non-gamers out there, this is a race car game. It was only two dollars!!! I laughed my butt off at the store when I figured out how much it cost. I got it because my friend told me to get it. I am the master at it! I drift around turns. I crash into everyone. It is a thrilling game!!! I love playing the derby online with my friends. I have Xbox live! If you have this console or anything like it, I highly suggest getting it.

My special talent would be playing Baseball with my freinds. Playing baseball is really fun when you learn to play. You will need to throw the ball to first, second, and third base. I would practice to throw and hit the the ball into the outfield. You don't haft to be a good runner to play, but you need to try your best to make it to each base without getting out.

Well, I know I'm no expert but, I guess you could say that I'm pretty good at cheerleading. I am a fair tumbler, jumper, and dancer. When it comes to tumbling, I got it from gymnastics and pre-k. In pre-k I went to an athletic school. In out 3 hour day we set aside one hour for gymnastics. When I moved I stopped until I moved Georgia. When I got here I started getting interested in gymnastics again. I started going to D.E.E.N.O.S (a gym). They told me that i was good and that I had a serious future as a gymnast. Well, I did learn very good tumbling skills. I also got very flexible, which I thank them for. Now if you would like to become a mad tumbler, I suggest you take classes. D.E.E.N.O.S is a great place to learn to tumble like a gymnast, but Cheer Savannah is also a good place to go to learn how to tumble like a cheerleader. Now, jumps. my flexibility, again, comes from gymnastics. Go train like a gymnast and you will become as flexible as you want and then some. Or if you would like to save a few dollars, just stretch at home. Do your splits every night. I do have to warn you. With flexibility comes problems. I have knees like an old granny. Sports aren't good if you want to move like a young person when your old trust me. Now lastly, dancing. I guess I could say that dancing runs in my blood, I'm part PuertoRican. I also took dance when I was younger. If you want to learn to dance, have some ethnicity in you or go take a class. I would recommend Coastal Dance Academy
