Johanna has been addicted to dogdancing since 1996. Mary Ray was visiting and doing a privately arranged seminar in obedience and agility. On the first evening they watched a video tape from the first Heelwork To Music competition in Coventry. The same evening Johanna took her Border Collie Jimmy on his first HTM training session with 2-3 new tricks and had Mary polish the rough bits the very next day. Since then, she hasn't looked back.
Her first demonstration was at the European Dog Show in Copenhagen in the spring of 1997. This was with her first dogdancing dog Jimmy. Later the same year they performed at the Galla evening for the World Agility Championships to "Words Don't Come Easy". At the closing ceremony she performed to "Stars and Stripes". Just 6 months later she travelled to Italy with Jimmy and did a seminar at the famous Italian Dog Training School BiancoSpino - and later the same week did 5 demonstartions at the European Dogshow in Genova to "Eye of The Tiger".

Other performances include Show Of Winners, Malmø International Show, and a sales promotion day for Masterfoods, Denmark.
Johanna has held several training days and workshops.
