THE REGULATED HUMAN
State. Breath. Presence.
Most training problems do not start with the dog.
They start with the human nervous system standing on the other end of the leash.
The Regulated Human is an in-person course focused on the human as the primary environmental influence in canine work. Rather than adding more techniques, this program removes interference by teaching you how to regulate your own nervous system under pressure—so your dog finally has the biological space to think, learn, and settle.
This course is not about commands, tools, or compliance. It is about state. About breath. About posture, presence, and the quiet signals your body broadcasts long before a word is spoken. Dogs do not respond first to instruction—they respond to physiology. When the human becomes stable and predictable, the dog no longer has to compensate.
On January 28, the work we do together is embodied and practical. You will learn how breath functions as a regulatory lever—not to “relax,” but to actively shift yourself out of survival and into a state your dog can safely mirror. We address postural neutrality and skeletal alignment, not as appearance, but as biological communication—how the way you stand, move, and occupy space signals safety or threat instantly. We work with presence and attention, learning to stay in the moment rather than drifting into anticipation, frustration, or outcome-fixation—states dogs feel immediately. You will learn to recognize the exact moments you leak tension through breath, jaw, shoulders, or leash pressure, and how to interrupt dysregulation in real time. You will also experience, directly, how changes in your internal state alter your dog’s behavior—often within seconds.
This work is foundational. It supports everything that comes after because it removes the biological noise that keeps dogs trapped in the primal mind. When the human is regulated, the dog no longer has to be.
I’m opening registration for The Regulated Human, starting January 28.
