Cheerleader Theme Music
One of the biggest components of a cheer theme party is the music. When creating a playlist remember to time the music to the flow of the party. Upbeat, fun non-dance songs at the beginning that mean something to you and your friends transitioning into the great dance songs later on in the evening. One of the best things about a cheer themed party is that you can use competition music that you’ve used or danced to and play that at the party. It’s a great way to remember all the great cheer music and routines that you’ve done with your friends.
Cheer Party Decorations
