My name is Kristin Jackson and
I believe that to truly care for our bodies, minds and spirits, we should enjoy time outside away from the electronic grind, get in touch with our bodies and have some FUN!

I started Take It Outside! Fitness to offer classes and training sessions that use the outdoors as our gym. But not all my knowledge and tools easily transfer to the outdoors--Pilates machines, weights, BOSUs, fitness balls, etc. So, I host classes and trainings at my Functional Fitness Studio as well.

Regardless of where we meet, people train with me because they seek accountability to stay on track, need help setting realistic goals, desire a supportive environment, and want FUNctional fitness programs they can do anywhere!

So, if you’re serious about taking control of your health and wellness, take a look around my website, drop me a note or call to set a time to talk about your goals and how I can help!
