Owner & Coach
EMMA BACHOFER
I began cheerleading at 10 years old because I wanted to be friends with a group of girls from my school. Little did I know it would take me further than I ever imagined!
Throughout high school, I competed for all-star programs such as Spirit Explosion, World Cup, and Upper Merion All-Stars. I had the privilege of competing at the biggest competitions in all-star cheer such as NCA, UCA, The Summit, and The Cheerleading World Championship.
I attended college and cheered for Hofstra University in Long Island, NY. In 2019 my dreams came true when my teammates and I won the UCA College National Championship. After graduating with a BA in Marketing and minors in IT and Business Analytics, I returned home to Downingtown PA.
I helped to start a local college cheerleading team and began offering mobile tumbling lessons. During this time I discovered that there is nothing I love more than coaching!
In the fall of 2022, I began coaching the Varsity and Competition Teams at Downingtown East High School. In the Spring of 2024, I became the Head Coach of the program!
In April of 2022, Coach Emma B LLC was born!
After a successful launch, I decided I wanted to grow my company to reach more athletes eager to grow by establishing Alliance Tumbling & Cheer LLC in the Exton Square Mall.
After Alliance's first year at the Exton Mall, we outgrew the space and made our way to our current facility in Downingtown!
Every day I strive to grow the love, confidence, and skill set of young athletes with a passion for tumbling, cheer, and stunting. I started this company to help athletes realize that they can accomplish more than they ever dreamed of. Time to get to work!

Coach
BERN INTERRANTE
Through cheer and my career goals, I plan to continue to teach, encourage, and support others to be strong and confident. I began competitive cheer in 4th grade at Visitation BVM School and instantly fell in love. I was on Varsity from 5th to 8th grade, which allowed me to help teach younger kids to cheer. Some awards I received in as a middle school athlete were UCA All-American, PJPHS All-American, Kedron School tumble-off winner, and (Co) Competitive Cheer MVP. I then went on to Pope John Paul ll High School and was on Varsity for all 4 years. I am most proud of being a 2x District Champion, a 2022 PAC Champion, and of placing 3rd at PIAA State Championships. I received 4 more UCA All-Americans, as well as the 2022 Coaches Award and 2022 Game Day MVP. I am excited to continue to be involved in the cheer world and to coach children to become the best they can be!

Coach
AUBREIGH ROGERS
Hi everyone! My name is Aubreigh Rogers. I began my cheerleading journey at a young age, participating in both All-Star and recreational cheer before joining my middle and high school teams. It was there that I discovered a passion for traditional routines and sideline performance. As a senior and team captain, I helped lead our squad to a 5th-place finish at the National High School Cheerleading Championship in Orlando, Florida.
Currently, I’m entering my second year as a collegiate cheerleader at West Chester University, where I was honored to receive both MVP and Rookie of the Year in my first season. These awards reflect not only my technical skills and athleticism but also my commitment to teamwork, discipline, and creating a supportive team environment.
As a coach, I strive to build confident, well-rounded athletes by combining high expectations with positive reinforcement. I’m especially passionate about stunting technique and love helping athletes develop both their physical skills and mental resilience. With experience across all levels of cheerleading, I’m able to connect with athletes of all ages and abilities—and I’m excited to help them grow in strength, skill, and confidence

Coach
LAUREN DUNCAN
Hey y’all my name is Lauren Duncan and I’m a recent graduate from Saint Joseph’s University! Where I was a sidebase on their traditional All Girl team! I’m originally from Lancaster County where I started my sideline and competitive cheer career! I’ve had the opportunity to compete at Disney’s ESPN center, NCA Collegiate Competition in Daytona Beach, FL, cheered alongside the Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleaders, and have had the opportunity to cheer at collegiate basketball tournaments, such as the Philadelphia Big 5 and Men’s and Women’s A10 Conference Tournaments.
Outside of cheer my favorite hobby is reading and hanging out with my friends and family! I can’t wait to get in the gym and meet everyone!

Coach
CAYLA BEHRLE
From the moment I started cheering at just 4 years old, I was hooked. Growing up, I cheered both competitively and on the sidelines for the Ridley Park Parkers, then continued my journey at Ridley High School. During my time there, I was proud to earn a bronze medal at NHSCC in 2014, a Regional title in 2016, and a Central League Championship in 2018.
After hanging up my Varsity sneakers, I knew I wasn’t ready to say goodbye to cheer. I started coaching with Ridley Park, where I had the opportunity to help lead teams to both regional and national success, and even helped introduce our first recreational gameday team! Over six seasons, I found so much joy in watching young athletes fall in love with cheer the same way I did.
Now, I’m incredibly proud to serve as the Assistant Varsity Coach alongside Coach Emma at Downingtown East High School. Getting to help athletes grow in both skill and confidence is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do, and I’m so excited to continue teaching the sport that has contributed so greatly to my life!

BRIA SANDERS
Hi! I’m Bria Sanders, and I am a recent graduate from the University of Scranton with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology. I began my cheer career in elementary school, where I found my passion for the sport. I loved the ability to be physically active while bonding with my teammates.
In college, I proudly cheered for my university and served as team captain during my senior year. I’ve had the honor of competing at UCA College Nationals in the Open All-Girl Game Day Division at ESPN’s Wide World of Sports, coaching youth cheer clinics, and giving back to the community through team volunteer efforts.
With my academic background in Kinesiology, I have a strong understanding of athlete development, injury prevention, and performance training. As a coach, I believe in meeting each athlete where they are with personalized techniques to help them grow confidently and safely while keeping the sport fun and empowering.
I’m excited to use my skills and experience to help athletes reach their cheer and tumbling goals!

Coach
GRACE SMITH
Hi! My name is Grace, and I started cheerleading as a freshman at Downingtown East High School. I was proud to earn a spot on the varsity team all four years and served as captain for two of them. Those experiences helped shape my leadership skills and taught me the importance of hard work, positivity, and teamwork.
I’m currently continuing my cheer career at West Chester University, where I’ll be starting my sophomore year this fall. Being part of a collegiate program has deepened my love for the sport and given me new insight into coaching and athlete development.
As a coach, my goal is to inspire confidence, build strong foundations, and help each athlete reach their full potential, on and off the mat.

BECCA WILEY
Hi everyone! My name is Becca Wiley, and I recently graduated from Downingtown East High School! I found my love for cheer in sixth grade, and since then, it has only grown. I began cheering at Marsh Creek Eagles and continued at Lionville Middle School. I then went on to cheer and compete on Downingtown East’s Varsity Traditional and Gameday teams. I am currently a freshman on the James Madison University Cheerleading Team and am excited to continue my cheerleading career! Cheer has helped me gain confidence, grow as a leader through my role as captain, and make forever friends. I aspire as a coach to help athletes have fun while reaching their goals! I am so thankful for the opportunity that Alliance has given me to help grow our community’s love for cheer!

Junior Coach
ELLA MORTON
Hey! My name is Ella Morton, and I am currently in 10th grade at Downingtown West. I started cheering for the Downingtown Young Whippets when I was 5 years old and continued to cheer for DYW until I was in middle school. In middle school, I cheered for an all-star team & the DMS cheer team. I continued with all-star until the end of 8th grade. Last year was my first year cheering for Downingtown West, where I was on the Traditional competition team. My favorite experience since cheering for West was UCA Nationals! Nationals was such a great experience for me because our team had so much team bonding, such as going on team rides and going out to dinner. I currently cheer for Downingtown West on the Varsity Traditional and Gameday teams. When I had my first tumbling class at Alliance, I realized how fun tumbling is and how much I already learned and corrected from just 1 class! I’m so excited to help younger athletes succeed in the same way an Alliance Coach!

Junior Coach

Hi!! My name is Sofia Tate, and I am currently in 9th grade at Downingtown West. I first
started cheering when I was 7 years old for Marsh Creek Eagles! I continued to cheer
for them all the way to the end of 8th grade, and in 7th and 8th, I was also on the DMS
cheer team. At the end of 8th grade, I tried out for West Cheer, where I made the Varsity
traditional and game day team. In my first season on the team, we placed 3rd in the Coed division at the PIAA State Championships and 3rd in Coed Game Day at NHSCC! My favorite parts about cheer are tumbling,
