California Spirit Elite

California Spirit Elite is the best gym in Northern California hands down. They have the best coaches, tumbling classes and cheer programs. They offer privates for extra 1 on 1 help and they offer various classes to strengthen or pick up new skills. My daughter came from dance and says CSE is the best part of her life. We are so happy to be apart of the family and are excited for our first competition season.

Love this place! The coaches really care about the kids and want to see them succeed. My daughter has been on a half year team last year and now a full year team this year. She works hard and has made great strides with her cheer and tumbling skills. There are programs for all skill levels so kids can start here and progress through the levels at their own pace. They are extremely careful about keeping the gym sanitized and are following all the necessary protocols to prevent the Covid-19 virus.

My youngest - who is 9 of 9 children is going on her 2nd year with California Spirit Elite. I searched high and low to find a Dedicated, Winning, Knowledgeable, Safe and Fun Team for my daughter to join. As a Ex Cheer Director, Cheer Coach and Cheer Mom - I knew everything in which I wanted for my daughter and my money to be invested in. I have found it with CSE. Coach Chris is AMAZING! Coach Jess is so dedicated and always wants the best for the team. Coach Sami is so patient and Melissa always has a smile on her face when you walk in the door. Needless to say we are with the CSE family for the long run - to express our dedication and the #1 team around - I drive over 1.5 hr to get to practice because they are INDEED BEST in Northern California!

This 2020-2021 season is the second season that my daughter has been with CSE. She started her first season on the Half Year All Star team to give her (and me) an idea of what was involved in competitive cheer and loved it so much that she went all in on the Full Year All Star team for her second season. The coaches are all great and really helps the cheerleaders build up their self confidence so that they can push even beyond what they believe they are capable of. They instill teamwork and trust among team members, and the right positive attitude. With COVID, they are taking extra precautions with disinfecting the facilities frequently during practices, including disinfecting the bottoms of cheerleaders’ shoes, hand sanitizing often, and ensuring masks are worn at all times. I have recommended California Spirit Elite to friends in the past and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them further.

This is our second year at CSE and I can honestly say that we have found an extended family who values and encourages not only the cheer skills that my daughter has learned, but who values her with all her character strengths and challenges. My daughter has learned not only the value of physical conditioning but also the value of character building skills such as perseverance, self-control and belief that she can be all that she wants to be as long as she is willing to put in the effort. CSE is not just a gym, it is also a place to grow and excel in skills that can be applied in life and not just in the gym. Come and check them out - you won't be disappointed!
