Training Young Athletes in San Benito County, CA
Built from a passion for youth athletics and community, KJ Elite Sports was created by Keith and Jeanine Riddle with a vision to inspire children through movement, confidence-building, and opportunity. What began with gymnastics has grown into an exciting and evolving space for young athletes and families throughout our community.
At the heart of KJ Elite Sports is a simple but powerful mission: “Keep Kids Moving!” A nostalgic phrase carried forward from a previous chapter in our community’s youth sports history, it remains deeply rooted in who we are and what we believe. To us, movement builds more than athletic ability. It builds confidence, discipline, resilience, teamwork, and lifelong healthy habits that children carry with them far beyond the gym.
Today, KJ Elite Sports proudly offers recreational and competitive gymnastics alongside expanding programs such as tumbling, ballet, Y.A.C.T. (Young Athletes Cross Training), wrestling, toddler parent-participation classes, birthday parties, and school field trip experiences, all designed to create a fun, encouraging, and high-energy environment where kids can thrive.
Whether a child dreams of competing at a high level or simply wants to stay active, build friendships, and grow in confidence, we are committed to supporting and encouraging them every step of the way.
As we continue to expand and evolve, we remain deeply committed to serving families from all backgrounds and to creating a place where children feel welcome, inspired, challenged, and celebrated.
We are excited for what’s ahead and invite our community to grow alongside us as we continue inspiring the next generation through movement, opportunity, and heart.
