Schedule

Rec tumbling is open-enrollment and level-graded through the gym's class portal — Tots (ages 3–4), Youth Intro, Intro Tumble, and Levels 1–6, with most classes running 45 to 70 minutes. All Star Full-Year teams are formed each May, with spots sometimes opening during the season, and Half-Year teams form in August and January.

Three lower-commitment entry programs run alongside them at the Southlake gym:

  • Champions in Training — a Half-Year Novice team for athletes born 2014–2020, with no tryouts and no experience or tumbling required, running mid-August through December.
  • Hot Shots — the tiny novice show team for boys and girls born 2019–2022, practicing Fridays 5:15–6:15 PM at the Southlake gym, with three exhibitions from December through April.
  • Blast CheerABILITIES — the co-ed All Star team for athletes with intellectual and/or physical disabilities, all ages welcome, practicing Saturdays 9:00–10:15 AM at the Southlake gym from August 22, with four performances in the season.

A Strength & Conditioning class runs Mondays 6–7 PM, and private lessons are available. Registration runs through the parent portal.

Details

The gym runs camps and clinics at its Southlake gym through the year; its September 2026 Saturday Power Up tumbling clinics (tucks, rebounds and set shapes) have concluded, and its camps page says more are coming soon. Earlier in the year, 2026 summer camps (all now concluded): Cheerabilities Cheer Camp July 13–15 (9–11 AM, for CheerAbilities athletes), Junior Heat Camp July 24, CCA Super Camp for Elite teams, held in Denton, July 31–August 2, and a two-day Tumble Camp with guest coach Lewis Dennis August 3–4 (times vary by level).

Our take

Champion Cheer is an All Star cheer gym first: it fields Elite, Prep, and Novice competition teams, with Full-Year teams formed each May (spots sometimes open during the season) and Half-Year teams formed in August and January. But the same Southlake gym also runs recreational tumbling for kids who aren't on any team — from a Tots class at age 3 up through leveled tumbling classes.

What sets it apart for a lot of families is CheerAbilities: a co-ed Special Needs All Star team, Champion Cheer Blast, for athletes with an intellectual or physical disability. Whether your child is chasing a competitive season or just wants to learn a back handspring, the range here is genuine, and the gym is explicit that it values every athlete regardless of age or skill level.

Local Tips

The gym is on Commerce Street in Southlake. A few practical things from its own policies:

  • The parking lot gets crowded at peak class times, and the gym asks parents to walk younger kids to and from the car.
  • If you sign up for private lessons, drop the monthly Private Lesson Membership before the 15th of the month to avoid the next month's charge.
Credentials

Champion Cheer was founded in 1997. It is owned by Jennifer Graham (founder and owner) and James Johnson (owner and coach), and the gym offers custom choreography for school, recreation and All Star programs, describing it as award-winning routine work. Individual coach bios aren't published on the site, though the gym has named a credential on its own feed: Taylor Merchant, who leads its strength and conditioning class, is a Certified Personal Trainer.
