Agility Foundation
for teams ready for off leash work
In this class we teach all the foundation behaviors your dog needs to be safe and successful in agility, whether you are just having some fun or you are on the competition track. We will cover body awareness, core strength, obstacle and handler focus, shadow handling, and beginning obstacle training (table, tunnel, jumps, contacts and weaves) and more! Dogs and handlers will stay in this class until they attain all the foundation skills needed for Agility Intermediate, typically for 4-6 months.
Prerequisite: To begin agility foundation classes, dogs must have instructor permission. Dogs must be 12 months of age or older and able to work with their handlers in an exciting environment off leash. A solid training foundation that includes sit, down, stay, and a solid recall off distractions is important to ensure the safety and efficiency of group agility classes.

Each month, competition classes work on a new subject. Subjects covered include: tight turns, independent contacts, distance handling, using toys to reinforce, how to decide which cross to use, warm up routines, independent weaves, how to build speed, proofing distractions, lead outs, and more!

introduction to jumping for agility
This course prepares you and your dog to more confidently take on sequencing in agility with full height or close to full height jumps. We will work through various 1 jump, short sequences, and jump grid exercises with an emphasis on good jumping form. The class provides an opportunity for dogs to solve the puzzle of how to move confidently between jumps in different configurations and at different distances. Prerequisites are Agility Foundation or instructor approval. Dogs should also be over 1 year old.
