Is it possible to be a cheerleader if you have drop foot?

Drop foot: It would be very unsafe to participate in cheerleading with a drop foot or peroneal nerve lesion.

Absolutely: It is absolutley possible to participate in cheerleading with a drop foot. You should not feel you are disabled from any sport! did you see the 2012 olympics? You can overcome just about anything with the proper training/ equipment / and coaching. Do not let negative people define you. Find those around you that will say yes you can and then help you figure out how to do it safely.
