    Hey!

    What comes to my mind – I would separate these steps “Name + Down Command” why? Because I do not want it to be one word like Rexdown but Rex down. Same with praise and reward, if you write it in one step someone will wonder if they should do it at the same time or praise first and then reward or vice versa?

    Also if you share videos to customers pay attention to every little thing, for example with the down video you used the word “no” and repeated the command, this can be confusing for the customer if he is at the marking stage

    At the climb command you immediately start the intervals in the written instructions, do you explain it to customers?
