    How to do a Herkie. The Herkie jump was named after Lawrence Herkie Herkimer, a cheerleader at SMU. For the Herkie jump, we'll start in this position right here and we'll use counts, to help us along the way. On one, you're going to go ahead and hit a hivey, on two, hold, on three, swing your arms into this X position with your knees bent and on four, you're going to jump off the ground, hit a T motion with your arms.
    Now, let's go ahead and sit on the ground, to go over the exact body positions of a Herkie. For your arms, you want to have your arms in a T. For a more traditional look, you can put your arms, in a punch and on your hip. For your legs, one leg should be in a toe touch position, with your knees straight, your toes pointed and the other leg, used to be in a bent position, with your leg leveled to the ground. On five, you'll bring your feet back together and land, hold on six and stand on seven.
    Let's do the Herkie to counts. Five, six, seven, eight, one two three four five six, seven. And that's, how you do a Herkie.

    How are cheerleaders so muscular and feminine simultaneously.

    Those of us who have gone to NCA Cheer Camps know the true Herkie Jump arm placement with a bent arm resting at the hip with the straight leg up & and a straight punch above the ear with the bent leg. Lawrence Herkimer founded the jump and the National Cheerleaders Association. The NCA herkie Jump is the accurate one. This UCA variant is a modified one and looks good as well even though I prefer the original. Either one is both acceptable just like Awesomes & Cupies, NCA High V motion Liberties & UCA Punch Motion liberties! All are acceptable as long as the form is sharp and correct!

    I'm in cheerleading so helpful and that was NOT A SIDE HURDLER

    • @highschoolcheerresources

      The biggest difference between a side hurler and a herkie is the position of the trail leg (the bent leg). Both jumps have the lead leg (the straight leg) in a toe touch position. In a side hurdler the trail leg is parallel to the ground (like it is when she is sitting on the ground and in her jump). In a traditional herkie the trail leg is bent with the knee towards the ground. (Google Lawrence Herkimer and see the photo of him doing his jump.) The second thing in traditional Herkie's one arm is in a punch like she demo's in the video. In the past 8-10 years the two jumps have been called Side Hurdlers or Herkies interchangeably. Most commonly it is done as a Herkie (with the trail knee downward) because a true side hurdler is very difficult to do well. The UCA staffer in this video does a fantastic side hurdler.
