Doga is about sharing your yoga practice with your pet.
I have always called it a partner yoga class.

There is not a pose that cannot be incorporated.

Here are a few examples of poses you can do at home.
*********************************************
Begin by just sitting and starting to breathe, and let your
pet find a comfortable seat on you, or near you. Start to
connect to each other, to your dual breathing, to your
love for each other. You can rest your hands on your
dog, but sit up straight and just be. Sit for @ 2 mins. It
can be hard to be that still, and perfectly present with
each other.

****************************************************
Great! Next Pose!

Let me also say, that I know that everyone has a
different size pet! It is about you and your dog! So
modify for you. Please do not hurt yourself. This is a
gently practice. There is a lot of massaging, light
stretches, relaxing and bonding.

Also, anytime you are helping your dog into a pose,
You must support them like a baby. WE do all partner
moves with respect, strength, and love.

Okay! Let's do the one in the picture next to me! Yes, I
know you think you are not flexible, well you are more
than you think, you just need to practice. And your dog
does too! You will find that not only is it totally natural
for your pet to be doing doga, but that it feels natural for
you too!

In this seated posture, your legs are out. Your dog is in
front of you. You can also circle your legs around the
dog. Begin to massage your dog, and then add a light
stretch to the legs. This becomes organic. How deep of
a stretch you get is up to you. Because it is about you!
The more you want...you can lean forward over your
pet. You can open a little wider. Same with the dogs. I
know that Coali stretches deeper after 4 years of doga,
then when he first started. And a lot of that, is that I
know his body and my body better.
