I began offering online private coaching in September of 2021 at the request of some of my nearest and dearest students. What started as a handful of us working through individual weekly goals quickly turned into customized lesson plans, weekly challenges, celebrations of achievements and so much more.
Flexible ever-changing plans created on both a weekly and monthly scale to keep you and your pup challenged and working together. What we work on is up to you and only you and how much work we do is purely your choice.
$125 a month supplies you with unlimited video reviews, weekly lesson plans, access to much of my class information and more.

“So can an old agility handler learn some new tricks?” I said to myself. Starting my fourth agility dog (over a span of 20 years), I was determined to finally REALLY learn how to train contacts this time around. I signed up for Erin’s “Contacts 911” online class and subsequently added 3 months of private coaching to the package, to help put a solid foundation on my young lab Piper. All I can say is (for me anyway) the answer is a resounding “YES”.
Erin has trained with some of the best, and obviously has a solid understanding of how to teach the skills she demonstrates so well in running her own dogs. Her communication skills are excellent – she not only demonstrates with videos, but provides detailed written explanations about how and why something is trained the way she recommends.
Her responsiveness and caring about her students is exceptional. She watches every video you send her, applauds your successes, trouble-shoots with great accuracy and kindness, and suggests fixes when things go awry. Listen to her. Trust her. She will bring you up when you are feeling down, and have a genuine celebration with you when you succeed. From 1800 miles away, I now have a new agility mentor and a friend for life.

"My relationship with Kixx was at all-time low when I started working with Erin. I was seriously thinking of retiring Kixx from agility as I was beyond frustrated and we were not having fun together.
Erin told me to have an open mind and I really took her advice to heart. I began noticing differences in mine and Kixx's relationship within the first week...just small things at first...but they grow daily. My standoff-ish dog began to lay in my lap, come over to me for pets and genuinely seemed happier to be around me.
Erin's compassion and patience working through our issues and reminding me to celebrate even the smallest achievements has made all the difference in our relationship. I look forward to many more little wins! "

"In the past couple of weeks I restarted agility classes with Ms. Remi to prepare her for in person trialing. It is fun being back in class with a focused dog! Due to the work you and I did with Remi she is able to participate in a busy agility class. The instructor has asked me several times what was the secret to getting Remi to focus. I told her about you, and that you were all about relationships!!! "

"Erin’s private coaching is amazing! I started working with Erin a year ago with my JRT and it has made a huge difference. She is now able to happily work at a distance away from me and is more confident.
I started my border collie puppy at 4 months old, and in just a few months she has amazing skills with the startline, outs, switches and can even do serps already. I have no doubt she will be very prepared for her first trial and will have all the needed skills well before she is old to trial.
Erin is very patient and will walk you through any problems you may be having. She explains everything in an easy-to-understand way and gives you all the attention you need. She is quick getting feedback to you. I get more out of my lessons with her than I do out of in person training. If you want top notch training, go with the Battle Dome!

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a private coaching “session” last?
A private coaching “session” or term let’s say, will begin on the 1st of the month and run through to the last day of the month that you chose to join me.
Am I obligated to sign up for more than one term to start?
Right now, no. I am allowing students to sign up on a monthly/ 1 term basis at a time. So, no worries about tying yourself down for the next 6 months unless that is what you would like to do 😊. The one thing that I want to tell you though is there are only a certain number of slots a month available at this time. So once I am full, I am full and current coaching students will have first option of rolling over (no pun intended) to the next month before I put out the call for an open slot.
What if I decide that I am not a fan of private coaching and would like a refund?
If this was to happen, I would be sad and would do my very best to adjust things so that hopefully you would still like to continue. BUT if no adjustment could be made to better help you a pro-rated refund of $31.25 for each week left of your term would be returned to you. I believe this would be fair to all involved but I sincerely hope that this never happens. I work hard to take care of my students and am willing 100% to work through anything 😊
