Early Gymnastics and Junior Career
At the start of her gymnastics career, Kelley went to Elite gymnastics in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. She not only did gymnastics there, but she was also homeschooled there until she left. Kelley competed there for many years before moving to Brown's Gymnastics in Houston, Texas. After moving to Brown's, she moved again to Star's gymnastics, also in Texas. As a junior, Kelley's major accomplishment was winning the U.S. National title in 2005 - the previous year she had been in 7th, so this was a considerable improvement. Internationally, she also competed at the Junior Pan American Games in 2004.

Famous quotes containing the words early, junior and/or career:
“On the Coast of Coromandel
Where the early pumpkins blow,
In the middle of the woods
Lived the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
Two old chairs, and half a candle,—
One old jug without a handle,—
These were all his worldly goods:
In the middle of the woods,”
—Edward Lear (1812–1888)
“The junior senator from Wisconsin, by his reckless charges, has so preyed upon the fears and hatreds and prejudices of the American people that he has started a prairie fire which neither he nor anyone else may be able to control.”
—J. William Fulbright (b. 1905)
“The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
