Learn how to strength train for a fraction of the cost of a personal trainer. Online and at your own pace.
You get access to high quality instruction, programming and support that will make both you, and your team, stronger.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Online courses consist of instructional materials such as lectures, videos, and images designed by Liz specifically for each course. Students have the option to enroll at one of three levels: Gold, Silver, or Bronze, each offering varying degrees of engagement.
Gold members gain exclusive access to a dedicated forum where they can upload videos for instructor feedback, you could think of this like focused 1-1 personal training for 6 weeks.
Other students, including Silver members, can view these videos and read the instructor's responses. Additionally, both Gold and Silver members can participate in student forums and pose questions.
Bronze members are granted read-only privileges, allowing them to view all content without the ability to comment.
Regardless of membership level, all students have full access to lectures, videos, and images for a minimum of 1 year.
All students have access to complete this course through Liz’s APP.

Course description
Are you done with struggling to keep up with your active dog during competitions or in life? Do you want to improve your scores and have more fun? Are you looking for a way to give back to yourself AND multitask to elevate your dog sport(s)?
During the next six weeks, you will need to dedicate 30-40 minutes of your time two to three times a week. You will also need to perform daily mobility exercises lasting 3-6 minutes. Our goal is to improve your strength in areas where it is most needed, so that you can confidently step to the line, so to say.
This is a "couch to 5 km" equivalent course that is geared towards beginner and intermediate levels, including beginners with no prior experience. As a working student, you can submit videos for feedback, which will be kind, supportive, effective, and encouraging. The community values compassion and support, and Liz ensures that everyone is taken care of.
Unlock Your Handling Potential is a program aimed at enhancing your handling skills in dog sports by integrating strength and mobility training into your daily routine. Through this course, you will develop greater stamina and resilience to keep up with your dog, leading to improved scores and overall success in your performance.
By incorporating mobility work into your routine, you can not only become a more skilled handler, but also prevent injuries and recover more quickly. Improved mobility is often the key component that many handlers overlook, but trust me, it can greatly enhance your daily well-being.
But it's not just about physical strength - mental toughness and focus are essential for success in dog sports. Working through the achievable challenges in the course will teach you to maintain focus during competitions and overcome obstacles.
This course will take your handling to the next level. Join me and start your journey to becoming a stronger handler!

Liz's app is available for the course that students can use. The program is easy to follow and has an 8-week app access period for complete course completion. All necessary material, including videos and workouts, will be available in lecture format and can be accessed in your library.
There are adaptations for common physical handler issues. Gold students will have the opportunity to work with Liz to refine the exercise selection should anything be an issue. Feedback will be given in both voice over video and written format.
