PRESENTATION OUTLINE
PREPARING TO CREATE
- List dog's attributes
- Dog's BPM found & adapted by human partner
- Select music relative to the dog & team's BPM
- Build a movement vocabulary, the raw material for DogWork
- Improvise conceptually to explore artistry & creativity
The objective of DogWork Presentations is " to show the dog to his best advantage".
* List the behaviors you wish to illustrate as intents and/or focus to inspire you
* Build phrases from the raw material of the movement vocabulary developed through training creatively
* Phrases, choreography's building blocks, link similar intents into parts to organize movement with music. Spectators are appreciative and interested when they understand the objective and how it is organized.
* Improvisations will improve performance skills and will develop unique movement vocabularies.
* Conceptually inspired improvs develop creative skills for crafting choreography as well as artistry as a performance skill.

moving as a team with harmony & balance of line, working on the same rhythm & dynamically expressing the oneness of team as a relationship
CHOREOGRAPHY WITH MUSIC
- musical choice relative to dog's BPM to maintain focus
- Dog's BPM adapted as team's rhythm
- Presentation's structure & form relates to continuity & flow
- Movement, a language & medium, when expressed artistically
- Movement & music fuse creating choreographic unity
In Levels I & II choreography is crafted to fulfill the definition. Choreography at levels I & II is structured with a beginning, middle and end. The structure should relate to the BPM of the musical choice to support focus on requirements and to fulfill the definition. The rhythmic relationship is expressed artistically in the team's shape enhanced by the music's rhythmic suitability and appropriateness to focus on the team's performance to test training and the resulting relationship. The musicality expresses the ability of the team to successfully mesh movement with music to communicate information to spectators.
Team a single entity
each 1/2 of the whole design
FOCUS ON THE DOG
RELATIVE TO DOG'S TROT WITH THE MUSIC
To maintain focus on the dog the music selected must have the same BPM as the dog's trot. His human partner is more adaptable. To maintain visual focus on the dog and/or the team, the team must be on the same beat. The human adapts to the dog's trot; rhythmically and in length of stride. Now the team has a common rhythm to maintain focus.
Each level score sheet includes a music and choreography area for judgement. In Levels I & II the objective is to show the relationship to the definition using time and space to test the defined objective using movement as a language and a medium to express in a creative and artistic manner what the dog does best.

The Canine Freestyle Federation uses Joan Tennille's original training program, CanineFreestyle DogWork, to prepare teams for Freestyle competitions. The competitive sport of Freestyle developed by Joan and The Federation is based on Joan's definition written as an explanation of the new discipline in the Sport of Dogs in October, 1993
The training program develops dog's technically, artistically and creatively in performance and crafting movement presentations as well as training the dog in a team relationship. There are 4 skills trained in DogWork. All training is team oriented to create the unique team relationship expressed with joy in trained dog work disciplines. The skills are:
1. Technical execution of movement.
2. Performance to express movement artistically as non-verbal communication.
3. Choreography with music to express relationship to test training creatively and artistically.
4. Dog Training,using positive reinforcement. Each presentation is a unique expression of the team's joy to work and train as one.
The training program began with the choreographing of the original four Presentations in August of 1993 and continues as a highly successful program for exhibiters in the sport.

THE INVITATION TO SPECTATORS
BEGINS WITH THE OPENING SHAPE
Each opening shape invites the spectator to come along, to be with the team as the story of their unique training journey unfolds. As the opening shape evolves and develops the spectator's interest piques. Perceptions of the artistically expressed movements are visual, auditory, mental and kinesthetic; artistically expressed movements may also be experienced emotionally. Movement, as a medium, speak to each spectator differently relative to each spectator's experiences.
