I am currently a freshman in high school. I have recently decided that I want to be a cheerleader, even though I have NO experience... I'm not even into sports or anything, but that's just because I don't like the idea of getting hit by a ball LOL. I want to be a cheerleader because it seems like fun, my parents are bugging me to get more involved in school, and it seems like good exercise.
I have friends who are cheerleaders, and it doesn't seem like too much work maybe compared to some schools. They yell, hold their arms up, do some elevators and dancing, etc.
The thing is, I will be going into it 1-3 years after most girls. I can't even do a cartwheel, handstand, splits OR really dance.
I figure I have about 6 months to work at this, and I really want to! Any help from anyone please?

Oh I'm also really skinny (like only just over 100 pounds) and I'm about 5'6'', just so you know... not anorexic people it's just how I am.
