Making the Cut: Redskins Cheerleader Tryouts

Northern Virginia resident Sabrina, 25, made the cheerleader cuts and is starting her first year on the squad. (Redskins cheerleaders use first names only for safety reasons.)

Cheerleading is nothing new for the real estate agent and dance instructor. Sabrina was a cheerleader at Gar-Field Senior High School in Woodbridge, Va. She was also an instructor at Bally Total Fitness before she auditioned for the Washington Wizards dance team.

Sabrina said one reason she auditioned for the Redkins squad was the encouragement she received from director and choreographer Stephanie Jojokian, who she worked with while on the Washington Wizards squad.

"We all love being under Stephanie. We all have a lot of respect for what she does,” said Sabrina.
