Spending time outdoors is vital to both emotional well-being and physical health. Maybe you’ve been finding yourself longing to “get outside.”

OUR MISSION

Build the skills and confidence to experience the outdoors in a way that leads to personal enhancement, a connection with others, and an appreciation for the natural world.

Be.

Empowered.

Outdoors.

“I’d say you have to take Jayne’s class before stepping into the woods. She teaches you confidence. She teaches you how to be prepared for any situation, and most importantly how to have fun!”
— Hunter Futch
