This workshop is a two hour taster session for those wanting to find out what agility is all about before committing to booking onto a course.
We will start to teach you to some of the popular commands used in agility and start get the dogs introduced to some of the equipment. This is all extremely low-level so is suitable for dogs aged from five months and older. There will be no jumping for puppies.
Following this workshop, you will then be invited to join a regular beginners agility course.
This workshop will be held in our private field in Woodmansterne Lane, Banstead, Surrey, SM7 3EY.

We've always wanted to try agility after seeing it at Crufts so I couldn't wait to take my Border Collie along to this workshop. We had the best time and Poppy was so tired afterwards! The trainers were great and only use reward based methods which I love. We have now signed up to a regular wekkly agility class with CK9 and it's one of the highlights of our week!

Rating: We started agility with CK9 2 years ago when my pup was 6 months old and we’re hooked from the first taster session we attended. Virginia, the trainer, was so patient and encouraging from the start and her passion for agility is so infectious. This combined with her knowledge of dog training, in particular her knowledge of what makes a collie tick, has been invaluable to me over the past 2 years. She has helped me through so many obstacles on and off the agility field and we can’t thank her enough for that.
Virginia has created such a lovely, supportive community feel within the class and we have made some lovely friends as a result
I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending anyone to attend Virginia’s classes, she’s an absolute star!
