Strength & Balance is a structured yet accessible canine conditioning class designed to improve your dog’s strength, balance, body awareness, and overall physical confidence. Sessions focus on safe, controlled movement and foundational conditioning exercises that support long-term joint health, injury prevention, and confident movement through everyday life.
Running on the alternate fortnight to Tricks & Talents, this class provides a purposeful balance to your dog’s training routine, combining physical conditioning with mental engagement in a calm, supportive environment.
Strength & Balance is suitable for dogs of all ages and stages. Exercises are adapted to each individual dog’s ability, fitness level, and experience, making this class appropriate for growing puppies, active adults, and older dogs needing extra support and stability.
Training focuses on core strength, balance, coordination, controlled movement, and correct biomechanics. Equipment such as balance pods, peanuts, platforms, cavaletti, and light resistance tools may be used, always with an emphasis on safety, correct form, and appropriate progression.
What this class focuses on
• Core strength and body awareness
• Balance, coordination, and controlled movement
• Confidence building through safe physical challenges
• Conditioning exercises supporting joint health and injury prevention
• Foundations for strength-based and resistance work
• Teaching handlers how to safely continue conditioning at home
Ongoing support is included through access to the Private EpicDog Community Facebook Page, with class recaps, photos, videos, and shared learning.
