AKD and Go Wild! Wear on the Today Show!

You may have caught a glimpse of the Science Cheerleaders this week on The Today Show, featuring women from the NBA and NFL who work in or study science, technology, engineering and math!

The segment, which aired Friday, September 21, 2012, features performances by the cheerleaders at this spring's 2012 USA Science and Engineering Festival, as well as interviews with performers from the Sacramento Kings, Atlanta Falcons, Washington Redskins, Washington Wizards, the Philadelphia 76ers and more. These ladies are more than just pretty faces, they have dedicated their education and careers to the sciences, and through the Science Cheerleaders, have the opportunity to reach out to the community and especially kids to talk about the thrill of science and other STEM-related fields.

Since 2010, Angela King Designs has outfitted the outstanding group of NFL and NBA dancers known as The Science Cheerleaders. When AKD's National Sales Director Laura Eilers Clark was invited to become the choreographer and creative director of the group, she and Angela selected the perfect item from the Go Wild! Wear collection to outfit the Science Cheerleaders: the Starbright short set. Including the "atom" logo on the sleeve and the belt buckle, the cheerleaders also wear the AKD white patent boot, creating a conservative yet sexy "superhero" look.

In 2012, the Science Cheerleaders added a Junior Science Cheerleader program and a warm up option from the Go Wild! Wear collection. The new v-pant was the obvious selection for comfort and style, and AKD's Style Pros coordinated a custom warm up jacket to match the design of the Science Cheerleader uniform, complete with embroidery on the back. This warm up is perfect for the thousands of cheerleaders they will be reaching through their new association with Pop Warner Cheerleaders.
