LIBERTY ALL STARS, Jersey City

Founded by a former high-school cheerleading coach who hoped to introduce the sport to an entire city of youngsters, Liberty All Stars opens its doors to children of varying ages and skill levels. The facility is the home training center for a dedicated team that competes at the local, regional, and national levels. However, the coaches believe that all guests can benefit from teaching that emphasizes teamwork, unity, and good sportsmanship. In addition to overseeing its numerous teams, Liberty All Stars provides the community with tumbling and fitness classes, tutoring sessions, and CPR and first aid workshops. The facility can accommodate various tumbling, cheerleading, and fitness programs thanks to amenities such as a competition-size sprung floor and floor mats stuffed with marshmallow fluff.
