I’m looking at the May 2024 calendar and am wondering if we should go thru the Structured Course completely since we’ve not yet done 99% of the items on the calendar or should we jump to the specific exercise and work on that?
For example, the calendar shows Warm Up shows Good Mornings, Side Steps, & Baseline Grid but we’re just on Paws Up. Thanks
Spend time going through the structured course first. The workouts will have more flow and less frustration if you both have a good foundation with the exercise.
I think Sam looks pretty good and is ready for a higher target. At about 25 sec in the video, she adjusts her back left foot to be more in-line with the back right foot. It looks like her back feet are fairly parallel (no wide stance).
Seems like most of the photos/videos taken for this initial phase all show her right front foot slightly forward of the left.
Her stance seems more vertical than the examples you show where the dog appears to be slightly forward.

Really nice job with stillness and holding the position. I agree the rear legs are a little tucked under and the left rear tends to be more forward than the right. It’s okay to increase height but I want you to use a target for the rear legs to help keep them in line with each other and less under body.
PJ – paws up, paws down, and posture. Sorry, I didn’t edit the video into 3 pieces. 🙂 https://studio.youtube.com/video/I-apEruf-vw/edit
Oops, disregard link above. Use this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-apEruf-vw
You are ready for increased height. Watch the rear legs. Turn the Cato 90 degrees to help with the wide rear legs.
