    Thanks Martin!

    Yes, I am already using ‘Over’ with the mat so I’m hoping the difference commands will be super clear for her as we progress.

    I have now started training her on a little plank to the MM (with no mat for now). After a few reps with her either leaping off or going into 2o2o, she has started trotting through hitting with either a front or back foot 🥳 Just wondering what your opinion is on me still competing with her stop DW whilst teaching her the RDW? Is this likely to confuse her or is it a case of seeing how she goes and adjusting if we start to get confusion in the sessions?
