All Star Coach
Anaya Hagger
My passion for cheer started at the age of 9 when I began competitive cheer leading. After stepping away to focus on high school cheer I returned to CIA at 17. Since then, CIA has been a huge part of my life and it's been an incredible to watch the program grow. As a coach I am dedicated to helping athletes find confidence in themselves while developing resilience and mental toughness.
