CU Foundations for Focus & Calm
Build a confident, thoughtful dog—one game at a time. This session covers Control Unleashed (CU) foundations including matwork, default behaviours, reorienting skills, and pattern games like LAT, Give Me A Break, and the Chair Game. Perfect for reactive, easily distracted, or sensitive dogs.
Whether you're new to CU or want a tune-up, this workshop will help your dog stay grounded in everyday life.

CU for Sport & Performance Dogs
Trial stress? Engagement fizzles? Pressure problems? Learn how to use CU concepts in performance settings to boost focus, regulate arousal, and prep your dog for success in distracting or high-stakes environments. Includes start button behaviors, TAB (biofeedback), opt-outs to build buy-in, and a deep dive on recognizing subtle signs of stress.
This is a must-attend for sport handlers, trial competitors, or anyone whose dog gets overstimulated in new places.
**Bonus**: Pattern games that help both you and your dog feel more confident at competitions.

Performance Foundations: Disc & Freestyle
Get moving and have a blast! We’ll cover disc dog basics (rollers, throws, timing), intro freestyle tricks (leg weaves, stalls, rebounds), and human-only drills to sharpen your throws. You’ll also learn how to chain tricks, manage discs on the field, and add style that stands out in demos or competitions.
Great for teams who want to try disc, spice up routines, or just have more fun training together.
--> Why Join Us?? <--
Sam DeJong brings a rare combo of CU mastery and performance sport expertise. Whether you’re prepping for your next competition or trying to help your dog stay calm on leash, you’ll leave with tools you can use right away.
Come for the calm. Stay for the cool tricks.
