Host a workshop


Vay can come to your venue to teach a workshop on Freestyle/HTM. We can include a mixture of theory, group and 1-2-1 work in whatever balance suits you.

​

Topics for workshops include:
 

  • Introducation to Freestyle/HTM

  • Ring skills - teaching you and your dog how to manage the many variables in a competition environment.

  • Motivation and Engagement - creating a dog that loves to work with you, regardless of distractions.

  • Cues and Clarity - improving our communication with our dogs.

  • Chains and Sequences - building duration of behaviours while maintaining clean behaviours.

  • Errorless Learning - building confidence and consistency with clean training.

  • Reliability - moving from training until we get it right, to training so we can't get it wrong.

  • Distance Work - building precise, reliable behaviours at a distance from you.

  • Reward Markers - Improving clarity in training and influencing your dog's position, behaviour, arousal state and expectation.

  • Handler choice - working on whatever skills/behaviours each team chooses.

​

For more information on any of these workshops please get in touch. If you would like a variation on one of these themes or something else, drop me a message and we can discuss.
