Coach Lakyn
Coach Lakyn began cheerleading competitively when she was 10 years old. She competed for the multiple National All Star Championship Program, Rocket Elite out of Phillipsburg, NJ. Rocket Elite is currently known as World Cup Phoenix. Lakyn gained much experience through this program competing at a very high level, mastering the innovative skills required to be National Champions.
Moving out of the area Lakyn relocated to the North Country of New Hampshire where she competed for Evergreen Cheer Stars at Level 4. The squad achieved many championships in local competitions. Lakyn enjoyed the “family feel” she experienced there with her teammates.
Upon returning to Pennsylvania, Lakyn’s family opened their own All Star Gym, PRIDE out of Broadheadsville, PA. As a Level 4 all star she won various championships as both athlete and coach. Lakyn was also crowned solo cheer National Champion. She received many awards for cheer tumbling as well as stunting.
Lakyn participated in High School Cheerleading as well where she was awarded NCA All American each year.
Lakyn’s favorite thing about coaching is watching the athletes work through progressions to attain their skills and build self confidence. However, coaching a squad and watching them come together forming friendships, trusting each other and having fun doing so is the ultimate reward.
