Where Do You Start With Wild Alchemy?

Most people do not need another random class. They need a clear starting point.

At Wild Alchemy, the path starts with an Evaluation because I want to understand the dog in front of me: what they know, what is breaking down, what the environment is contributing, what the handler wants life together to look like, and where communication is getting muddy.

From there, Foundations builds the shared language: engagement, recall, leash communication, implied stays, place, leave it, give, settle, heel positions, and the ability to work through changing environments.

The goal is not to collect commands. It is to build skills that hold up in real life.

Once that foundation exists, training can expand into community practice, agility, walks, adventures, workshops, CGC work, and the situations that matter to that individual dog and family.

Train for the life you want to live together. Start with the relationship, build the communication, and then make the world bigger.
