Beginner & Advanced

All classes are conducted outdoors.

Beginners -
This class continues to build on teamwork and agility fundamentals. We focus on building confidence, improving training mechanics and having fun with your best friend. Continues where Foundation class left off and includes weave training plus beginning jump work and beginning handling exercises.

Advanced -
There is no "set" curriculum- each class will be individualised to try to meet each team's needs as far as possible.
The aim is to provide more opportunity for extension or further assistance in a particular area depending upon the needs of the group.
