What is Canine Conditioning?
Canine Conditioning is a training programme based on scientific research that has been designed to develop core strength, rebalance the canine body and improve their movement through correct muscle recruitment. This in turn reduces the risk of injury and improves performance in both sports and everyday life.
Bryony is a qualified, licensed coach for the Canine Conditioning Academy (CCA). The CCA Programme uses specific, targeted and measurable exercises that are designed to strengthen dogs core, improving flexibility, stability, balance and proprioception (body awareness).
What will it do?
There are 3 levels of training, Foundation, Intermediate & Advanced. All dogs start with the Foundation course – tailored to each individual dog:
- Learn exercises that will target specific muscle groups
- Build muscle and improve core strength
- Enhance flexibility & good posture
- Develop proprioception, coordination and balance
- Increase focus & confidence
- Personalised programme for your individual dog
Your dog will be fitter, faster and more confident after just 8 weeks!
How does it work?
Your dog will be assessed for imbalances and muscle measurements recorded so you can track the progress. You will learn fun new ways to train with your dog that will keep them (and you) entertained! Classes of up to 4, or 1-to-1 classes in person/online.
On successful completion of Foundation, you will be invited to go on to Intermediate & Advanced courses to further improve your dogs fitness if you wish.
These courses are suitable for all dogs based on scientific research
- Pet dogs to help with weight management & general fitness
- Sporting dogs to improve performance & reduce the risk of injuries
- Puppies & young dogs to set them up for a fit & healthy life
- Senior dogs to support mobility & joint issues
Exercises are adapted to suit the individual, with minimal equipment required.
We do not use or advocate the use of instability equipment.
