Hi, I’m Erica! Cheer has been part of my life since the second grade, and over the past 15+ years, from sideline to all-star to varsity and 5 years of coaching, it has shaped me into the person I am today. Cheer didn’t just teach me jumps, stunts, and tumbling — it taught me confidence, resilience, and the courage to keep going when things were hard.

Through every challenge, cheer showed me that growth and transformation aren’t always easy, in fact, they can be uncomfortable and even painful — but they are always worth it. That truth has carried me far beyond the mat, helping me find my voice, my strength, and my purpose.

I founded Oklahoma City Vortex Cheer with one primary goal: to give athletes a positive, empowering environment where they feel safe to push their limits, learn from challenges, and discover their own power. Here, every athlete is reminded that stumbles are part of the climb, and that the process of becoming stronger, both in skill and in spirit, is one of the most rewarding journeys they’ll ever take.
