In this one time course, learners will be participating in a yoga class with their dog! The class will begin with an introduction of ourselves and our pups. We will also discuss our focus topic of the day. We will follow-up our introductions by providing our dogs with a massage and add in light stretches for ourselves. Then, we will move into several unique yoga poses that will incorporate our dogs. We will end the class with Shavasana, or final relaxation. Before we leave, we will give our pups a final massage and share our messages of gratitude.
