Heelwork to Music and Freestyle are both great fun for all kinds of dogs, from the tiniest chihuahua to the biggest dane. Moves are chosen to suit you and your dog, there is no one size fits all.
We run a regular Heelwork to Music workshop and weekly Online Heelwork to Music classes. There is no obligation to do both, but they complement each other very nicely. We also teach regular workshops with other trainers around the country. If you would like us to teach at your venue, see Host a Workshop or get in touch.
We love the creativity and the challenge of putting a routine together, training all the moves and performing it with a wonderful dog. We hope you will too.
The workshops cover
- Learning and developing tricks.
- Linking moves together into sequences.
- Using props.
- Choosing music and themes.
- Heelwork positions and transitions between them.
- Putting a routine together.
- Building motivation.
- Preparing for competition.
Dog and handler teams tend to progress at different rates and in different directions, so the workshop is tailored to each team, breaking things down and adding extra challenge for those that want it. There are tea and coffee facilities at the venue, and we work indoors.
