Natasha Kelley - Early Gymnastics and Junior Career

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.
