Commitment. It always seems like the minor league organizations committed to putting the best teams on the field also put the best dance teams on the sidelines. This is the case with the Gridiron Developmental Football League’s Indianapolis Tornados, winning 25 games and losing only two during the 2012 and 2013 seasons, and undefeated so far this season. In line with that success, the Syrens Dance Team also includes top talent and management. In her fourth season as Syrens Director and Choreographer (all while dancing with the Syrens), Kim Roudebush is now also the National Cheer & Dance Commissioner for the GDFL.

In addition, this season, the Syrens added new Assistant Dance Director/Choreographer Jamie Dean. Jamie has been dancing since she was a little, with an extensive cheer and dance background, including cheerleading in college. Jamie in enjoying her new role, helping the individual Syrens grow, succeed, and seeing their confidence boosts. “That is what it is all about,” Jamie says.

The Syrens have a summer of cheer and off the field events ahead of them, including dancing at halftime at the Indiana Fever WNBA game on August 14th. You can get super discounted tickets at this link when you use the password “dance” (of course!)

Thanks to Kim, Jamie, the Syrens, and the Tornados for all of their assistance. And here are some Syrens photos from the big home win 41-18 over the Chargers from St. Louis:
