WHAT FUELS OUR FIRE
FIREHOUSE ELITE IS A second home for athletes who want more
more growth. more purpose. more confidence.
Firehouse Elite is one of the largest and fastest-growing cheer programs in the Pacific Northwest, built on a simple belief: when athletes feel safe, supported, and challenged the right way, they rise.
We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished, and even more proud of how we’ve accomplished it.
Proven SuccesS- Built the Right Way
Firehouse Elite has a proven track record of competitive success, including multiple Top 3 finishes and a 1st Place win at The D2 Summit.
We train with intention, develop athletes progressively, and hold ourselves to the standard of competing with the best of the best.
As the only D1 cheer gym in the Tri-Cities area, we offer athletes a path to high-level competitive opportunities without compromising what matters most: safety, values, and culture.
Owners Who Are Present, Caring, and Invested
Firehouse Elite is led by involved owners who are active in the day-to-day heartbeat of the gym, not just behind the scenes.
We know our athletes. We know our families. And we take our role seriously.
When you join Firehouse, you’re not joining a business. You’re joining a community.
Coaching That Develops the Whole Athlete
Our coaches are highly skilled, trained, and committed to helping athletes reach their full potential, not just in performance, but in confidence, resilience, and leadership.
We believe the best coaching is a ba1lance of two things:
-
A positive environment athletes can thrive in
-
High standards that bring out their best
Our athletes are supported, challenged, and taught to believe in what they’re capable of, even when it’s hard.
A Culture Built on Brave Growth
Firehouse culture is brave, growth-focused, and rooted in values that shape athletes into confident competitors and strong humans.
We teach athletes to embrace:
-
Hard work
-
Perseverance
-
Rising to tough challenges
-
Competing among the best
-
Developing a champion mindset
We don’t promise easy.
We promise growth and we walk with athletes through every step of it.

Doing What’s Right Even When It’s Not Popular

Over time, we’ve learned something powerful:
Standing strong in our values is what makes Firehouse remarkable.
It attracts the right families; the ones who want a program that builds athletes with integrity, confidence, discipline, and pride.
