The hit docu-series Cheer on Netflix follows the story of the Navarro College cheer team and their journey to Nationals. The show premiered the highly-anticipated second season last month which showcases the team’s journey throughout the pandemic.
The team’s coach Monica Aldama talked to Ryan Seacrest on-air today about this emotional follow-up to the last season after many events hit the team. Not only did the team have to face a lockdown that canceled Nationals and their practices, the news of the charges made against their team member threw the team in a different direction.
“I woke up every morning and gave myself a good mat talk because I needed it,” Aldama told Seacrest about how important it was for her to keep her mental health strong during all of it to keep the team going.
