Training

Last week was a bit mental so I didn't have time to do write up my lessons - I think it is because both lessons are now evenings and by the time I get home, cook and eat tea and tidy up after the day I don't have time!!

I shall just do a quick recap of what I can remember of training last week so I don't miss them out completely!!

Monday
This was our first group session at A-Sit and I had Elliot in the first class and Jem in the second. Well, I ran Elliot first because I thought he would mess the course up and it would put everyone else at ease, he however had other ideas and ended up doing the whole agility course - including 6 weaves clear first time!!!! The course started jump weave and he got them without any messing about and his contacts were very nice. We then spent the lesson tightening up bits of the course to save some seconds. He wasn't nearly as wound up as I expected him to be in the group lesson and he only ran off one contact and only struggled with the weaves a couple of times!! Very proud mummy! :)

Jem had a harder course to do and she was bad with her weavies first time and knocked a pole, however I was very pleased with myself as it turned out I had walked and consequently ran the course the best way first time - this is something I have been noticing recently, I have been getting much better - when I do get Lel to check how I have walked a course in competition it is getting rarer that she has to correct what I am doing :) We spent the rest of the lesson tightening things up again and I think she finished nicely, just knocking a pole (again!)!!!

Thursday
We worked on Jems weaves (AGAIN!!) and she was getting better (I think!), I can't really remember much else of her lesson which means there was nothing amazing great she managed to do, but nothing appaling either bless her :)

With Mr E we worked on weave entrances again and managed to get him to do 3 jumps (in a star) before them and he got them twice with a nicely early command before the jump before the weaves :) I also remember he did some very nice seesaws and we finished doing some long straight jumping to try and get him extending better
