Pro Elite All Stars Adam Mickelson Beware of ths New All Star Cheerleading Program - Keller Texas

Please beware that this "new" cheerleading program it is simply a new owner taking over Crusader All Star Program. 

This new owner took over coachng for Mike Martinez this year at Crusaders - during that time he missed two different competitions and the kids were not told why he was not there - just that he wasn't.  He has displayed poor judgement during what should have been structured team practices.  He has made promises to atheletes that he can't stand behind.

When he started recruiting for his own gym Pro Elite - he started making promises to try to get athelets to say with his program and not leave - when kids told him they were leaving he stopped working with them - he wouldn't speak to them -

If you want another year of mind games and empty promises  - Pro Elite is definately the program you need to go to!  You will not be disappointed.  Just know that you will start a season knowing you will be lied to and manipulated.

This report was clearly written by Mike Martinez himself considering it was written before Pro Elite had even opened and Crusaders had just closed the night before it was written. Mike is just bitter that he failed as a gym owner and is looking to put other people down. Pro Elite is a wonderful gym and I have the upmost respect for Adam and Dustin and everything they are doing. Go Pro Elite!!!!

My daughter cheered for Mike Martinez at Crusaders for 7 years. Adam Mickelson was brought in this last cheer season at Crusaders, to help our kids improve in cheerleading. Adam has done privates with my daughter for 8 months now and is the most responsible, caring, and hardworking person i have ever met. He helped my daughter make the high school cheer team, and has helped her become the best cheerleader and person she could ever be. Adam has not only encouraged his athletes to try out wherever they feel is for their best interest, but had also helped his own athletes for their tryouts at other gyms. He always worked his hardest to make sure his athletes were happy and having fun doing the sport they love. He has always made it very clear that his athletes ALWAYS come first. Whoever wrote this rip off report is just concieded and jealous and doesnt see what a great person Adam truly is. Adam coached my daughters team personally and everything stated in this rip off report is FALSE! One competition he missed because he was so sick with the stomach flu, he could barley walk. The only other competition he missed was because he was personally competiting with his team from Champion Allstars at the 2014 Cheerleading Worlds. Whoever made this report has truly upset and dissapointed many people. This really breaks my heart to see someone talk about such a wonderful person that way. PLEASE dont EVER believe anything in that ripoff report, because NONE of it is true!! From my own and my daughter's own personal expirence Adam Mickelson is not the man that has been described in the Ripoff report above.

My kids attended Pro Elite last night for the 1st time and they will be trying out this weekend. I met Adam for the first time and he is a great person. He intereacted well with my children and all the other athletes present. 

He did not try and sell his program and make promises so my kids will tryout. He came off very intellegant, and very passionate about cheer and the program we wants to build.

I thiink you need to come meet Adam in person before you take a comment from "concerned parent" to heart. If this happened to me I would putting my name to it instead off hiding behind an anymous name

To the person who made the Ripoff Report about Adam Mickelson and ProElite Cheer, you are misinformed. I am a cheer mom of athletes committing to this NEW program. Pro Elite is not in any way affliliated with Crusaders. Crusaders is no longer an active company, Mike Martinez has formally gone out of business and closed his doors. Pro Elite has simply taken residence at the location and purchased the equipment for their NEW program. Pro Elite is indeed a BRAND NEW company, and has no ties to the now-closed Crusaders All Stars. So, please understand how you are misinforming consumers with your poor information.

As for the comments regrading Adam Mickelson, I have no specific information about your statements, other than to comment that you seem very angry and scorned over a personal conflict of personality here. Which has no emphasis on professional quality. If you choose not to like someone's personality, that is a choice....not a reflection of their professionalism. If he were absent during competitions, that may have been due to his commitments to his own competitions or perhaps internal situations between he and Mike. Adam is a professional person and would not leave his athletes "stranded" without proper reasoning. Perhaps you could have approached him and questioned his reasoning, rather than wait for the opportunity to blast his name and business. It seems tacky and small of you, when a proper and mature thing would be to have a conversation with the coach.

For those of you seeking a cheer program and wanting solid information, please take the time to communicate with the owners of Pro Elite and current families involved in the program. It is a new program and is still budding, but the owners are long time coaches with solid reputations and premium experience. I have personally known one of the owners/coaches for many years and have nothing but upstanding opinions of him. Don't let one simple minded opinion prevent you from making a decision in placing your child in this program. The person who wrote the negative review wrote it BEFORE the gym actually even opened, which only screams scorn and bitterness. It was not written from a holistic and real standing. :)
