Fun I had my daughter sign up for a team and she got the panthers and she was late to audition, but we emailed them and they said that I could come late and do it and now she’s on the Panthers and then now it’s been a few years and she’s on the highest team

If you want your kid to feel inadequate and easily replaced, this is the gym for you.

We invested a great deal of time and money for uniforms and private lessons, competition dues, required hotels, and flights. When my daughter was injured at the gym she was replaced like she didn't matter at all.
- Coaches demand sick kids come and watch
- Our coach demanded my daughter compete injured.
- Don't consider being on a high school cheer team, it won't work.
- I asked for the owner of the gym to contact me and she never bothered.

Truly negative experience for my daughter, I wish we never walked through the door of this gym.

We loved this place. And my daughter did to. It wasn’t till her biological mother had an incident with the staff that was out of my control, I was called and told if I could get her to delete the review she left my daughter can come back. And yes I have it recorded on my dash cam when it was on blue tooth. Then after I was called and told since they can’t control who brings my daughter they prefer her not to return. It’s sad that this was the only way they felt to solve this issue.

The receptionist was very rude after I voiced my concern of the five-year-old teacher disrespecting my daughter in a way that she wouldn’t try to pronounce her name right it’s an easy name to pronounce she even has a nickname that she could have used instead but the teacher never cared to get involved or learn the teacher is very immature in a way that she cannot reason with children in a way to make them understand the exercises to the point where my daughter was leaving cheer in tears the receptionist called me petty after she showed no concern whatsoever for my complaint at the desk. She looked down the entire time at her papers and then another receptionist went and tried to get the teacher so that I could confront her about it they don’t know how to handle their business there I’ll never be taking any of my children there again.

In the time she spent there she won 2 Summit championships, 3 NCA championships, Cheersport, Triple Crown and numerous other national championships. Kelly and the CEA coaching team taught her tons of techniques and have shaped and molded her into a talented athlete.

CEA Raleigh is such an amazing place. CEA has been a tremendous blessing to my quiet and reserved daughter. From the minute she stepped foot inside of CEA in July 2020 her confidence and self esteem has been built up by the amazing staff.

PSA - The reviewer “Biocotin King” below appears to be spam. The picture he posted is of my friend’s teenage daughter and her friend who lives in Kentucky. The photo was not taken at Cheer Extreme, but rather at my friend’s personal residence and they somehow got this personal photo - which has been reported. If you look at this dude’s reviews, he has also reported a handful of other places for allegedly giving him Corona. Really unsure what this “Biocotin King” gent would have been doing at a cheerleading gym for adolescents anyhow. Sketch.

Beautiful facility, impressive athletes, very nice families. The owner recruited one of the best CheerAbilities coaches in the country to start a team at CEA Raleigh. CheerAbilities is for athletes with various types of disabilities. Some have Autism, Down Syndrome, and others have physical disabilities where they need help moving like with a wheelchair. Our team, Dream Team, had a great first year bonding as a team, with the gym, their coach, and junior coaches. They performed publicly twice with no assistants on the floor. They practiced and stayed connected through the COVID19 stay at home order. Our girls all are immunocompromised in different ways and varying degrees. Once the gym reopened our team was ready and committed to work harder and longer than the year before. They happily got into the gym for a 90 minute practice and came out tired and happy everytime. They even challenge each other to workout outside of the gym. Now the OWNER has some disagreement with our CheerAbilities coach and couldn't figure out how to resolve it, so now our entire team is looking for a new gym. The owner talked to us the first and last day. Not much if at all in between. I thought she was respecting our dynamic and team culture, little did I know she wasn't REALLY committed to us. She saw an opportunity to boot us out and she did. Good luck CEA Raleigh.

This is the 4th year our 2 daughters are cheering with CEA. We have been at other gyms, but now that we are with CEA, we would never go anywhere else. No gym is perfect, and all parents and kids grumble at times, but what is amazing about CEA Raleigh is that the owners and coaches always strive to get the best from themselves and the athletes. They are constantly open to feedback from parents and athletes, seek to truly understand all concerns of any size or topic, and actually ADJUST - when appropriate - to keep making the program better. Every athlete and team is important at the gym - be they prep kids or world champs - and coaches use a wealth of different approaches to connect and bring the most out of each athlete. Kids are taught that teams are built with varieties of skills and strengths, that everyone has value. Expectations ARE HIGH from coaches, but no higher than from the athletes on the teams. Everyone is held to the same rules and standards. I think folks need to understand that when they come to CEA. If you embrace the pursuit of excellence, you will be thrilled with the experience!

my experience at cheer extreme has been amazing. this is my 5th year at cheer extreme. the coaches teach you skills that are so important for later in life. for example you are not always going to win and that’s ok, they teach you how to be a leader. they also teach you sometimes you’re not going to feel great or something might be going on but you need to just push through and do it when it counts. i don’t ever walk in practice and feel that the coaches aren’t giving 100%. they truly put so much time and effort into there athletes and the routines. the coaches and staff treat every athlete like it’s their own kid. i’m so greatful that i have the opportunity to learn from top coaches and be surrounded by welcoming and friendly athletes! cheer extreme opens doors for just about anyone, beacausd of the amount of teams, the different levels and the age range among the athletes! i would highly recommend cea to anyone wanting to start cheer because of the loving environment!

Everywhere you go, there’s always someone willing to tell you a story, start a rumor or spread lies. But sometimes you just have to see for yourself and figure it out. We transitioned to CEA from Rockstar Raleigh, not because we wanted to, but because we had to - our gym closed :(. We were scared, we were skeptical, and we were unsure. But what we understood was that my Daughter loved cheering and wanted to continue. So we took a step out on faith and continued with CEA.

Oh what a step it was....

From May of 2018 to now, our experience has been nothing short of Amazing. All the rumors, the lies, the inconsistencies were put to rest in my book. Kelly and her staff are truly handpicked to do what they do. Not because they have to, but because they love the sport and the athletes too. In just 8 short months, my daughter has gone from a strong Level 2/barely there level 3 athlete to a now level 5. Well technically, she’s on Junior 3 and Junior 4 teams, but whose checking levels ;). Early in the season, she asked if she could “cross tumble” on her Junior 4 Elite team. Her tumble skills were not up to par for Level 4 Elite team (she had nice layout though :)) So her coach told her “work on your tumbling and we’ll see by the end of the season”. To me, as a parent, that was fair because she was in everything else in the routine. She took what she was told as her Will to do better. For every tumble bust on that team, she cried. For every time they asked her to try something new, she hid. Her Coaches and teammates never made her feel anything less than still being a part of the team. It was all good because she was determined to be and do better.

She got in the gym anytime she could. She’s worked with pretty much EVERY tumble coach there and I have nothing but positive things to say. Her coaches assured me that she was getting out what she put in- the hard work. The success shows on the mat each and every time her teams as well as other teams take the mat. There isn’t anything negative I can say about CEA, other than they need to have an Adult tumble class (totally kidding:)). If you’re looking for the right cheer exposure, experience, dedication, hard work, and outstanding work ethics in athleticism - Cheer Extreme Raleigh is the place for you.

Everything happens for reason. Rockstar Raleigh was her roots and foundation. She carries what she has learned there with her everyday. But, Cheer Extreme Raleigh is now her place of Growth. We look forward to many more seasons with CEA-Raleigh.

My daughter started Cheer Extreme in May of 2018 after being in gymnastics for years. My daughter was very intimidated by being one of the younger girls at tryouts and seeing so many girls of higher skills. Kelly went up to her, introduced herself and erased all those fears. From that point on, my daughter has been in LOVE with cheer! She went from years of gymnastics practice with a back-walk-over, from learning a back handspring in just 2 months! She is now currently working on back-tucks and has only been at Cheer Extreme for 9 months! The coaches there are amazing and push the kids to their highest potential. Even though Cheer Extreme is a large gym, the coaches of all levels are very knowledgeable about cheerleading and push their athletes to be their best. I highly recommend Cheer Extreme to anyone who is interested in cheering or tumbling.

The ownership and coaches are the best in the industry, and despite the ever-growing number of athletes, they continue to “know” each individual and make every effort to focus on building character, athleticism, and leadership. My family has felt valued and respected at all times. The spirit at CEA is also great: athletes and parents love cheering for each other!

This is our first year at CEA Raleigh, and I just don’t have enough time to list all of the things we love about it! My daughter’s confidence has vastly improved in this very positive and uplifting environment. The coaches are amazing. They are professional, and incredibly knowledgeable, and at the same time truly care about the kids. Don’t listen to any negative you hear about this place. The haters are simply jealous of this amazingly successful program. The athletes are held to a high standard here, and Kelly and the rest of the staff are equipped to help them rise to the occasion. We truly should have come here years ago.

We were fortunate to switch to CEA after we started our season with another gym. Every coach, staff member and Kelli made our transition much easier than we expected. This gym is not just building Allstar Cheerleaders, they are instilling respect, trust, confidence and character in each athlete here. If you are looking for a gym I strongly suggest you explore CEA. Don’t be overwhelmed, remember everyone is at different stages of development. Although we moved onto volleyball-I miss my fellow cheer moms quite often.

This is my daughter's 3rd season with CEA and I can't say enough great things about it! Everyone is welcoming. The staff are highly skilled and passionate about what they do. It's incredibly well organized. There is an emphasis not only on developing athletic skills, but also good character. The life lessons my daughter has learned will stick with her long after her cheer skills have faded.

Cheer Extreme Raleigh has to be the largest "small gym" I've ever encountered. Meaning that even though they have hundreds of athletes, you still get the feeling of a small gym environment. Kelly takes the time to get to know and form a relationship with every athlete and their family so that they feel completely comfortable and are able to reach their fullest potential. The coaches are great, the parents are great, hands down the best gym experience we have ever had. I wouldn't trust my daughter to anyone else.

My daughter transitioned to CEA in May 2018 having been in Allstar cheer for 5 seasons. We are thrilled with the level of skilled teams, dedicated and skilled coaches, interative parents/families and a very high level of professionalism demonstrated throughout the organization. There are many different team levels and classes offering something for every child at every level. Additionally Owner and coach Kelly Helton promotes an atmosphere and expectation of encouraged development of athletic as well as leadership and personal skill growth. We are excited to be competing at the most prestigious competitions among nationally ranked and well known gyms in the industry.

My daughter joined the Cheer Extreme family in May 2017 having been relatively new to cheer, and since that time she has flourished! The coaching and support staff are exceptionally talented and remarkably dedicated to each and every athlete. They have created a safe, encouraging, and cooperative environment for athletes and parents alike, which we are thrilled be part of.

Our family just moved here from FL in June, and my daughter started cheering at CEA the following week. Since then she has loved every minute of her time at CEA. She has been praised, and encouraged by her coaches, and what was more impressive is that for a gym of that size I didnt think the owner would even know who my daughter was—- but she absolutely does! Not only does she know who she is but, she has reconized her by name and has also been encouraging to her in her flying and tynbking skills!! We ❤️ CEA so far and are having a great experience.

Cheer Extreme builds world class athletes! My daughter is in her 3rd season with CEA. Having started competitive cheer at age 5, her dream was always to go to worlds. Her second season at CEA, she was able to make it there, and her team placed 9th in their division! Already this year by early December, her team, the new “Code Black”, already had their bid to Worlds 2019. Cheer Extreme is amazing. Truly the best of the best!!!

My daughter joined this gym just a few months ago after trying one of their cheer camps. She had danced for five years and decided that she wanted to try something different. The coaches and staff are so knowledgeable and were able to help us get her into a tumbling class perfect for her as well as suggesting the half year team. When she started she didn’t know how to tumble but after a few months at Cheer Extreme she has gained so many skills. She has made so many friends from cheering and has grown into a more confident young lady. I’m so thankful that we joined Cheer Extreme Raleigh.

Our family has been at CEA for about 8 years now... both of our daughters did rec tumble, and our youngest has been cheering for about 6 years. We consider the gym a second home, and the coaches, athletes, and parents our extended family. Our girls have learned tough life lessons and what it is to be part of something bigger than yourself. Our youngest is learning leadership skills through the gyms intern program, and we have the opportunity to participate in community service. Can not recommend this gym enough....so happy to be part of the CEA family!!

Positive, caring atmosphere, great place for kids to build confidence, discipline, and character. My oldest daughter, now 23 years old, started at CEA when she was in middle school and my youngest daughter, now 17, has been cheering here since she was 5. I wouldn’t trade the years we spent with this gym and coaches for anything.

Our family has been at Cheer Extreme Raleigh for 12 years with both of my girls moving through the program from Tiny to Worlds' and I wouldn't trust anyone else with them! The coaching staff, owner and administration are the best in the business! The full experience of life lessons mixed with pushing to be the best you can be is something every athlete should experience and CEA Raleigh has it all! I can't say enough positive things about the first class cheer gym! If you are looking for a new gym home look no further this gym has it ALL!

After six years at another cheer gym, we switched to Cheer Extreme Raleigh. It was a great decision! In two years, my daughter’s tumbling has improved tremendously in technique and skill level, and the coaches helped her find her confidence. She went to the Summit for the first time last year and had a great experience! No matter where she competes, her teams are always competitive! I only wish we had switched gyms earlier!

CEA Raleigh is my daughter's home away from home. This is her 2nd season, coming from a very small gymnastics focused gym with two cheer teams. CEA has a small gym feel, but has a very expansive and talented coaching staff. She tells me that she wishes we had come to CEA sooner. The coaches are demanding at times, but no tougher than most "club sports" coaches, as they expect kids to work hard. I have another child in club volleyball that expects the same.

We moved to the area a 2.5 years ago and my daughter had never cheered or tumbled before and decided to enroll in the half year cheer program on a whim. She had and an awesome year and quickly fell in love with cheer and CEA! She has since been in the all star program and CEA is truly her happy place!

My daughter has excelled by leaps and bounds since moving to Cheer Extreme Raleigh 3 years ago. The coaches and owner have a passion for coaching and the expertise to make your athlete shine. There is a reason why so many parents through out North Carolina and even out-of-state are willing to drive their athlete there. Cheer Extreme Raleigh is literally a world-renowned gym. Your athlete will never out grow this gym nor is it too advanced for them to start at. They shape and mold all of their athletes to be the best they can be. Most importantly, my daughter loves her coaches and friends she has made there.

This is my daughters 9th year of cheer and our first year at CEA Raleigh. Every aspect of this gym and organization is amazing. Somehow, even with over 500 athletes, Kelly, the owner, makes each and every child feel special. Every. Single. Coach. is professional, knowledgeable and gives 100% to the teams. Allison, behind the front desk, keeps everything in the gym running smoothly and if you have a question she can answer it. I’m just sad we waited so long to come to this gym!!! If you are looking for a gym or thinking of making a change, this is the place to be!

It’s not just a gym, it’s a family!

This is our third season at Cheer Extreme Raleigh, I have three girls that are in love with cheer but mostly in love with this program and every single one of their coaches, they all bring something different to the plate. My girls feel safe, loved and very important. The coaches always make sure that every kid knows that no matter what your position is in the team you are all equally important because they couldn’t be a team without one athletes part. I always wanted my kids to learn what team ethics was and we have found that and more, we are a big family and I know my girls have all the peers they need for cheer and in their personal life. Couldn’t ask for more!! I highly recommended!!
