he/him/his
Originally from Long Island, New York, Jackson’s fitness journey first started with dance. Jackson trained at multiple ballet studios in New York before going to Point Park University in Pittsburgh and graduating with his Bachelor in Fine Arts in Dance in 2021. That same summer he moved up to Maine to pursue his dream of dancing for a professional ballet company by joining the Portland Ballet.While he was training to become a professional dancer, Jackson would also cross train to make sure his body was always up to the caliber it needed to be for stage performances.
Jackson found and fell in love with yoga during the pandemic as a means to stay in shape for dance. This sparked a new passion for movement and fitness, leading him to get his 200 hour Yoga Certification as well as later going on to pursue his Certification in Personal Training from the American Council on Exercise.
