The coaching is designed to work with one dog at a time so that you can go through all the exercises step by step. This approach allows us to identify and correct any mistakes together as they arise. After completing the course, you’ll be able to transfer the skills you’ve learned to your other dogs. During the coaching process, we’ll develop a strategy that will make it easier for you to master the exercises with your other pets.

To start the coaching, you need just one thing: the desire to learn and grow with your dog! Immediately after purchase, you'll gain access to the introductory lessons, where you can learn or review the tricks we’ll be using throughout the program. It’s best to master these tricks before the main coaching begins — during the program, we’ll focus on combining them into sequences and creating a full dance routine. No special equipment is needed – all exercises can be performed on a flat, safe surface, whether at home, in a hall, or outdoors. The most important thing is that your dog feels comfortable moving, and you find a convenient place to train!

You don’t need extensive experience in dog dancing or dancing in general – all lessons are structured in a simple, step-by-step manner and suitable for beginners. In the introductory lessons, I’ll also provide you with all the necessary information about the tricks we’ll be working with, so you can get ready before the program starts. We will start with the basics and gradually move to more complex material. Each element is broken down into small, easy-to-understand steps, so you can learn at your own pace without overwhelming yourself or your dog.

Absolutely! Our coaching is not only for those planning to compete. If you want to learn how to dance with your dog for fun, strengthen your bond, spend quality time together, and develop your dog's physical and mental abilities, this coaching is perfect for you. The tricks, sequences, and mini-choreographies are first and foremost a way to enhance your communication with your dog. And if you later decide to compete or show off your dance to friends and followers, you’ll be fully prepared!

If you’ve already tried dog dancing with your dog but feel your movements don’t flow into smooth sequences and you're unsure how to move to the music, this coaching is perfect for you. It will help you learn how to smoothly combine tricks into cohesive and harmonious sequences, understand how to select the right transitions between elements, teach your dog to work more freely and confidently without constant luring, develop your rhythm, and learn how to present movements to music. By the end of the coaching, you’ll be able to build mini-choreographies where all movements look intentional and beautiful, turning individual tricks into a true dance!

Yes! If your dog knows basic tricks but sometimes performs them incorrectly, you can still start the coaching and work on reinforcing those skills. You will get access to step-by-step lessons on how to master all the basic tricks and also you will be able to ask your questions throughout the 7 weeks in our private Facebook group, where I will be happy to assist you.

The coaching program is suitable for dogs of almost any age – both young (over 6 months old) and older pets. It’s important that your dog is physically healthy and ready for light physical activity. Young dogs can join they are highly food-motivated and able to stay focused. Older dogs can also participate – working on sequences and mini-choreographies will help keep their mental activity and physical fitness in good shape. If your dog has any health concerns, it’s recommended to consult a veterinarian before starting the coaching.

If your dog often gets distracted during training and has difficulty focusing on working with you, I recommend starting with a theoretical course on motivation, as well as the “Let’s team up” and “Let’s step it up” practical courses. In these programs, we specifically work on developing motivation, focus, and your dog’s resilience to external distractions. This will create a solid foundation that will make it much easier to work on tricks and master dog dancing. The “Dogdance Summer Camp” coaching program is designed for dogs who already know how to maintain focus on the handler during training.
