It's always top of the Christmas list - every year Kimberley
Ramsay's son looks forward to unwrapping the latest Guinness World
Records book.
Kimberley, head coach and owner of All Star Cheerleaders, has
always dreamed of being in the book herself.
Originally trained as a lawyer, Kimberley did a stint in tax law
with Bell Gully in Auckland before heading overseas on her OE. When
she returned she decided tax law was not for her - she wanted to do
something she was passionate about.
Her hobby was cheerleading, and she decided to set up a
cheerleading school. It is her proudest achievement, "giving people
something fun and exciting to do, it brings a lot of joy to
people," she says.
There are now 10 All Stars franchises nation-wide, and the elite
team came third at a recent World Championship in the USA.
Kimberley featured on TV ONE's Dragons' Den where she was offered a
business partnership with Paul Webb and Annette Presley, (but
eventually turned them down). More recently her Christchurch team
were featured on TV2's Top Town, as the host team's official
cheerleaders.
Now the All Star Cheerleaders are attempting to break two Guinness
World Records for New Zealand including possibly the most famous
Guinness record of all - the most people crammed in a mini.
