In this episode, I interview Tineisha Hatten, who is a Head Tumbling Instructor and a full year and Rec Program Coach for Outlaw Cheer and Dance in Massachusetts. Tineisha is also the owner and operator of Cheerportation. We discuss the inspiration behind creating her business, advice she would give anyone looking to create a career out of their passion, and her favorite and most challenging experiences as a coach.

Tineisha Hatten - As an athlete, Tineisha cheered for 10 years starting in middle school all the way through college. She also did 2 years of all-star cheer. Since graduating college, she has been coaching various all-star, college, and high school teams for 6 years. She ran into an issue with a school not recognizing their cheer team as a sport and not being able to use the gym for practice space or use the school transportation resources to travel to a practice facility. In 2022, she created Cheerportation LLC to help cheer teams have an extra resource. Cheerportation also offers services to parents who need rides for their athletes anytime throughout the season in the New England Area.
