In Episode 3 of the Kaizen Doggie Dojo Podcast, host Trevor Smith explores the second pillar of dog training: The Body.
Great training isn’t just mental—it’s physical. Your dog reads your every move: shoulders, pace, posture. Whether you're on an agility course or walking through your neighborhood, your body language matters.

This episode dives into:

How your movement shapes your dog’s response
Handling style differences for calm vs. energetic dogs
Warm-up drills for injury prevention and focus
Fitness and rest for you as a handler
The “flow state” of synchronized movement between you and your dog
A body-based Kaizen challenge to get you moving with awareness

If you've ever felt out of sync with your dog or want to train with more presence and energy, this episode is for you.

Challenge of the Week: Choose one physical habit to practice every day for 7 days. (e.g., warm-up with your dog, stay hydrated, practice posture during drills)

📌 Podcast Chapters:
00:00 - Introduction & Kaizen Recap
01:00 - The Body: Pillar Two of Dog Training
02:30 - Dogs Respond to Your Movement
04:15 - Handling Styles Across Dogs
