Default Help! Who needs the training? Me or Max?

Wow! I've been reading all the great results y'all are getting with your pets (training). Max and I have attended two puppy obedience classes and I'm slightly frustrated.

I know Max can sit, shake, lay in the down position, spin, etc., but in the obedience class there is a very specific way things are to be done. For instance, before Max can sit, he has to walk from my right side to my left, then make a circle near my ankles and THEN sit. Bless his heart, he would sit anytime I asked him, but it is not "executed" like they want. He will sit immediately when asked, but it might be in front of me, beside me, but the only way he really does the full circle sit is when lead with a treat.

I have no plans on entering him in any shows, simply want what is best for all of us, which means obedience. How hung up should I get on the execution?

Help!
