Teaching Style

Classes with me are energetic but structured—perfect for pups who need a job to do! I love turning tough core moves into games, like using your dog’s “stay” command as a cue to hold a Plank a little longer. Don’t worry if your pup is hyper—I’ve got 10 tricks to keep them focused while you get a great workout.

Me & My Pup

Ziggy is a ball of energy—he’s always ready to play. When he was a puppy, I struggled to find ways to tire him out and get my own workout in. Pawlates was the answer—now, he gets excited when he sees my mat because he knows we’re going to move, play, and bond. He’s proof that even the most energetic dogs can thrive in these classes.

Jax’s classes are a game-changer for my puppy, Lola. She used to bounce off the walls at home, but now she’s calm and focused during Pawlates—plus, I’ve never felt stronger!”
