Beginners and Elementary

Tuesday  7pm - 8pm

Beginners & Elementary build obstacle understanding and starts handling sequences. 

The Beginners and Elementary programs run for 18 weeks with dogs and handlers being introduced to a variety of different obstacles using one core handling system. Weekly classes will focus on three jump types, 2 varieties of tunnel and introduces contact equipment and weave poles. 

The content is largely the same, however we will begin to increase the difficultly and introduce additional handling and obstacle skills. There is an assessment at weeks 9 and weeks 18 of the course that determine your placing in either class. 

​

There is no restriction on how long a dog may remain in Beginners or Elementary however to move from into the Starters class, dogs and handlers must pass an evaluation.  

Requirements: 
All dogs must have either successfully completed Foundations, or been assessed as competent by our instructor team.
