Helping today's youth achieve their personal best through our commitment to instill
RESPECT, STRUCTURE, and CONFIDENCE in each athlete in a fun and safe environment.
Welcome To Peak
CLASSES, COMPETITIVE & PERFORMANCE CHEER
Cheerleading is one of the fastest growing team sports in the United States. At PEAK, we are proud to offer several levels of instruction ranging from Recreational cheer classes to our highly competitive Elite cheer teams. Whether you are just starting out in cheer or have years of experience, the PEAK coaching staff is ready to work with each athlete to help him/her reach his/her fullest potential.
Our cheer program has grown from one team of 18 girls to now hundreds of girls and a long list of championships including a 2006 UCA National Championship and a 13th place finish at the 2008 Cheerleading and Dance Worlds Competition.
We are very proud of our record of excellence, but we are most proud of the life lessons that we have been able to instill in our athletes.
The staff at PEAK is committed to the concept of sportsmanship and team building. We have adopted "PEAK POSITIVE" as our affirmation and mission:
"HELPING today's youth achieve their personal best through our commitment to instill: RESPECT, STRUCTURE, and CONFIDENCE in each athlete within a fun and safe environment."
Our athletes respect each other, their coaches and their fellow competitors. We feel that it is important for our participants to learn about the structure of organized athletics, both in the gym and in competitions. It is our hope that with this knowledge, the athletes will gain confidence, meet team goals, and always stand them in good stead to perform their personal best.
We appreciate your interest in our cheer program and hope you find a home at PEAK!
Cheerleading Classes
Are you ready to take your skills to the next level?
Get the best in cheer classes at Peak Athletics. Cheer classes are offered to children ages 3 years-18 years and every level, from the beginner to the elite competitor. So whether your cheerleader is just getting started or is preparing for college tryouts, Peak can help with the conditioning and skills needed for success. Our classes provide tumbling, dance, jumping, and motion training, with classes and clinics that focus on specific skills, such as back handsprings and back tucks, as well as general skills and instruction in performance technique and choreography. Other specialty classes include Pre-Flight (learn to stunt or improve on your body awareness skills) and High School Tryout Prep (prepare for high school cheer tryouts with our 12 week training class).

Spotlight Cheer Team
The Spotlight program is designed for students who want to learn cheer or dance and wish to have a lesser time commitment than our competitive Elite teams. Spotlight members learn cheer motions, jumps, stunts, dance, and have the opportunity to perform in 3-4 parade and halftime performances throughout their 6-month season. This program is offered to children ages 4 years -15 years and is perfect for the beginning cheerleader! CLICK HERE for more information (Spotlight Team)
All-Star Elite Cheer Teams
The Elite Cheer Teams at PEAK are designed for athletes who are highly committed to the sport of cheerleading. We seek athletes who demonstrate a positive attitude and a strong work ethic. Athletes in our competitive program are placed onto squads and practice 2-3 times throughout the week in preparation for competitions throughout the cheer season. Elite team members work on developing individual jump and tumbling skills, as well as advancing in team stunts and routine choreography. We offer several cheer teams ranging in ages from 5 years -18 years and USASF (United States All Star Federation) levels 1 through 5. Our Elite team athletes have the opportunity to compete in approximately 6 local competitions throughout the season and 1-2 out-of-state National Championships.
If you are just moving to the area, and would like to join one of our squads, please contact us to discuss possibilities. (Liz@peakcheer.com, 303-797-8082) CLICK HERE for more information on our 2008-2009 teams (All- Star Cheer Team)
STARS Special Needs
The Stars Cheerleading Team has been an important part of the PEAK program for many years. Since it's inception in 2003, the team has grown to 27 athletes from all over the Denver Metro Area and includes athletes ranging from 8 years to 23 years of age. This team is designed for athletes with physical and mental disabilities that are eager to participate in the fabulous word of competitive cheerleading.
The Stars perform at most of the competitions in which the cheer teams compete, sharing with the community their special style of cheering! The effort these athletes put into their practices and the excitement they feel when they get to perform is contagious. The Stars are coached by several volunteers from PEAK's coaching staff and Elite cheerleading teams. These athletes are not only improving their skills physically, but socially and emotionally. Belonging to a team, having responsibility and enjoying friendships prove to be just as important to the athletes and their families as the cheering itself. CLICK HERE for more information (STARS)
