They're the ones that learned how to use them together. A 4–8 week immersive sprint that builds AI capability inside your team — on real work, with a coach embedded.
Start a conversation →In martial arts, a dojo is where skill is built through repetition, feedback, and real stakes. The AI Dojo borrows that structure: a small team, working on something that actually matters, learning AI practices by applying them — with a coach in the room.
Unlike a training day or a workshop, the dojo produces real output. The work doesn't stop while the learning happens. They're the same thing.
Designed for development teams ready to move beyond individual Copilot use toward shared AI practices that improve delivery quality — not just individual speed. The dojo leverages the skills of your most AI-savvy senior developers and works on real code, real tests, or real technical debt from your backlog. Your teams learn how to learn together.
Grounded in DORA research: AI amplifies existing engineering discipline, for better or worse. The dojo builds the habits that make AI safe and effective at the team level.
Designed for operations, product, marketing, and leadership teams who need to move from AI curiosity to AI fluency. The dojo works on real business problems: process documentation, client communications, research synthesis, decision support.
Rooted in Kinetic Change's organizational behavior framework — because AI adoption is about helping people through change as much as it is a technology problem.
Learning on toy problems doesn't transfer. Dojo participants work on actual priorities — so the skills stick and the output ships.
Individual AI gains routinely fail to become team gains. The dojo is explicitly designed to build shared practice, not just personal proficiency.
Effective AI use requires permission to be uncertain. We design the environment so "I don't know" is the fastest path forward.
AI reflects existing organizational patterns. The dojo surfaces those patterns alongside the tools — so teams know what they're amplifying.
Sustainable AI adoption is behavioral. We focus on small, repeatable practices that compound — not dramatic transformation that doesn't land.
Every format is shaped by DORA research, organizational psychology, and real transformation work — not vendor marketing.
Kinetic Change is run by Erika Lenz and Fayoké Longe. We build with AI together every day — for our business, for client work, and for fun. What we teach is what we actually use.
Erika has spent fifteen years helping organizations navigate big technology changes — as an agile coach, product leader, and transformation consultant from startups to Fortune 100s. She has led agentic AI programs at scale, co-founded WhisperQuake, and runs Denver's Human-Centric AI meetup.
Fayoké comes to AI from twenty years in design and strategy — work that requires translating other people's thinking into something concrete enough to ship. She's built brands and digital infrastructure for organizations from small businesses to Fortune 500s, and continues to teach and write on design futures.
