Director Of Cheer

Felicia Ballard is originally from Baton Rouge LA and has been known as an individual with many talents. She attended Southern University in Baton Rouge Louisiana and shortly after she met her husband and moved to Florida. Felicia volunteered as the head cheer coach with her 2 girls in 2001-2008 for the YMCA and 2009 for Pop Warner. In the Summer of 2012 Felicia started the organization "PINK ZEBRA CHEER"  in Tallahassee Florida introducing cheerleading camps and clinics for kids and teens.  

Later  Felicia, her husband and kids moved to Seattle where she volunteered in 2013 as the Director of Cheer for Youth Meadowdale Mavericks of North Sound Junior Football League! In 2014 Felicia saw there was a need for more cheerleading programs in Edmonds Washington. She decided to expand PZC organization and offer more  programs, clinics and camps serving Edmonds, Lynnwood, Meadowdale,  Mountlake Terrace and Shoreline  WA area. In 2020 the organization continued to grow and now offering more cheer programs in Louisiana State &  Washing ton State . Her goal for these programs is to  teach kids about leadership, good sportsmanship, self confidence, spirit, good character and responsibility while also learning cheers,  jumps, stunts and dance routines.

 Felicia's concept for PZC is to get as many boys, girls and young ladies more involved in community activities. She wants kids & teens
​to be open to learning, staying active and be willing to help others while giving them a positive environment that they can use to build confidence and meet new friends. Her hope is that through cheerleading, she can influence kids in a way that will add to their own successes and catapult them toward future successes! AS the Pink Zebra Cheer owner and founder she wants to make it a fun and a positive learning experience for our up and coming cheerleaders.
