As the Head Coach and All-Star Coordinator for Midwest X-Plosion, Northwest Indiana’s newest All-Star Training Facility, Tasha brings a competitive background to MWXP and is anticipating the programs first year of competition. This season will begin her eighth year of coaching. Tasha cheered for and graduated from Hobart High School in 1999 where she was the Varsity Captain as well as MVP for her Junior and Senior year. Her High School accomplishments also included a position on the UCA London All-Stars, a spot in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade as well as the Orange Bowl. After high school, Tasha began her coaching career with local Indiana gyms which led to a position at World Harvest Bible College where she was hired as the Stunt Coordinator for their Co-Ed Cheerleading Program. Her position with World Harvest launched her competitive coaching career which consists of National Championship Teams, Stunt Groups and Individuals throughout the Midwest region as well as nationally ranked teams at the All-Star, recreational and High School levels.
Midwest X-Plosion’s Program Director strongly believes in Open Team Placement & Evaluation. We do not hold official tryouts unlike other gyms in the area. We believe that training is the key to building a successful program. For us to turn an athlete away because they do not have certain skills will only hurt us in the long run. We focus on a detailed technique based training program which allows all athletes looking to grow and perfect in skill level a chance to do so. Open Team Placement simply means that each cheerleader will be placed on a level according to their skill. Even if you do not tumble...we WILL train you! We will neve let a potential team member walk out our doors due to tumbling. The following are open spots that must be filled no later than June 15, 2008.
