“Keep going until you get it right. And then, you keep going ‘til you can’t get it wrong.” That’s the Monica Aldama way. A few months ago, that name may not have registered. But now, its synonymous with the winningest squad in National Cheerleaders Association history: the Navarro College Bulldog Cheer Team. We fell in love with Aldama and her cheerleaders while binging their Netflix docuseries, Cheer. And we were charmed even more by their inspiring mat talk. Today, the ever-lovable Jerry Harris, OG cheer-lebrity Gabi Butler, and clap master La’Darius Marshall are giving ELLE readers a special dose of encouragement. Watch as they shoot straight with their best advice on life, love, and everything in between…complete with spirit fingers, of course!
