About Us

Hunter Grace
Guest Instructor (Week 2)
I’ve been an allstar competitive cheerleader for 11 years! I’ve cheered all over the country, getting to live out every dream my younger self set out to do. When i was just starting cheerleading, i remember watching Cali SMOED in my room everyday after school. My dream pass was the iconic whip full down center panel, and with a lot of hard work my biggest dream came true. 10 years later i made my ultimate dream team, Cali SMOED & was blessed to have the exact pass my younger self had dreamed of forever! Throughout my 11 years of cheerleading i am so grateful to say i had the opportunity to be on teams such as: CEA Super7, Cheer Athletics Crewcats, Twist and Shout Adam&Eve, Cali SMOED, Cali COED & Cali Relentless. These teams have helped me accomplish all my goals i’ve ever dreamed of; 2X World Champion, 1X Silver Worlds Medalist, 1X Bronze Worlds Medalist, 1X NCA Champion, 1X Cheersport Champion & 1X Jamfest Champion…. as well as being the first ever non tumbling team to take the MAJORS stage! This sport means everything to me & this journey will be one i remember forever.

    Cheer Career :
    I started gymnastics in 2015 in Fort Walton Beach, Florida and continued that for a year, my dad got orders to Illinois, which led to me driving a hour to St. Louis, Missouri to start my cheerleading journey at Platinum Athletics I stayed there for a year before moving to Dallas, Texas to cheer at Cheer Athletics and be on Cheetahs for 3 years! After my years on cheetahs, my family retired to North Carolina, where I continued my cheerleading journey at Cheer Extreme Raleigh, and be on Code Black! While my cheerleading career is still active, I have found myself falling more in love with this sport on the coaching side of it, all the hard work, from being an athlete is truly paying off on the coaching side as well!

        I began my cheerleading journey in 2019 when I joined Cheer Extreme Crush, quickly falling in love with the sport and the bonds it created. That same season, I had the incredible opportunity to also cheer with Cheer Extreme Coed Elite, which truly shaped my foundation as an all-star athlete. After taking time to grow and refine my skills, I joined Twist & Shout Diamonds in 2023, where I continue to cheer today and push my limits each season. In that same year, I earned a spot on the iconic TGLC, and cheering with them has been nothing short of a dream come true. Over the years, I’ve been lucky enough to be a 2x Majors Champion, win the 2022 Triple Crown, and most recently, become a 2024 Grand World Champion. This sport has given me lifelong friendships, unforgettable memories, and a passion that continues to grow every day.
