Improvers Canine Hoopers Class

Is your dog becoming increasingly independent during walks, venturing farther afield to explore the surroundings?

Is that once unwavering connection starting to fade?

No need to worry!

Our Improvers Canine Hoopers Class is the perfect remedy

Your Stargate to building an unbreakable bond

while diving into an exhilarating new game that helps you gain control in any situation.

This class is designed for those who have successfully completed our Beginner's Hoopers Class, demonstrating a solid understanding of hoopers equipment and a knack for teamwork. By this point, your furry friend should be well-acquainted with the equipment, ready to embark on this exciting next step.

In the Improvers Class, we delve even deeper into the world of hoopers, taking your dog's skills to new heights. We begin by piecing together longer and more intricate sequences and courses, teaching your dog to navigate challenging routes with enthusiasm and precision.

But that's just the beginning.

The focus of this class is mastering distance control. We're talking about handling your dog from afar, ensuring that your commands are heard and followed no matter how far they explore. This newfound skill isn't just beneficial on the hoopers field; it translates directly to those adventurous off-lead walks, helping you maintain control and connection in real-world scenarios.

But that's not all. As your dog becomes even more proficient at hoopers, their confidence will soar. They'll tackle more advanced challenges with enthusiasm and resilience, making your partnership stronger than ever. And, of course, their physical fitness and mental agility will continue to improve, keeping both of you sharp and engaged.

In the Improvers Hoopers Class, you'll unlock new levels of fun, connection, and accomplishment. Get ready for an exhilarating journey with your dog, where growth and achievement go hand in paw.

Act fast – each class is limited to 4 dogs and handlers.

What Our Customers Are Saying...

I started taking my dog to Hoopers training classes because he loves being with me and learning new things. We started attending Hoopers in March 2020. In a fairly short time, Henry has earned his Level 1 & 2 Rosettes.

In order to achieve this, he had to learn to turn in different directions, to move away from me and to read my body language as this helps him to go in the right direction. These skills are great fun at Hoopers classes but they are also useful when we are out on walks.

Natasja is an excellent trainer. She gives clear instructions and also demonstrates with her own dogs. If Henry or I make a mistake Natasja pinpoints where I have gone wrong and helps me put it right.

All the training is reward-based and there is no pressure on either dogs or handlers. There are 10 levels in Hoopers, Henry and I still have some way to go! In the meantime we are having fun, learning lots in the process and building a stronger bond between us.

I have been training with Natasja for about 3 years.

She has always been supportive of my over-enthusiastic dog and has helped her focus. She has always encouraged me to believe in our ability to achieve our goals.

We attend both the Rally Obedience and Hoopers classes and have attended some of the workshops that Natasja runs.

Natasja is a very friendly and approachable trainer

Natasja Lewis DipCABT

In 1994, my fascination with dog training ignited as I welcomed Dali, a Shetland Sheepdog, into our family. The challenges we faced birthed my passion for canine behaviour, propelling me to refine my skills through intensive study, workshops, and a deep understanding of training methodologies.

Central to my approach is the revolutionary Fun | Focus | Play® method. Unlike traditional techniques, it forges a joyful partnership, aligning with the latest in canine behavior science. Beyond being a skilled trainer, I'm also an author, my books "No Pulling Allowed" and "Dogz Thinkz Differentz," unveiling innovative perspectives on training.

What sets me apart is not only my years of experience and knowledge, but the ethos of choice and collaboration that defines my training. Our journey together isn't just about training your pup; it's about fostering a profound bond, understanding, and confidence, allowing you to navigate the complexities of dog ownership seamlessly. Let's sculpt a harmonious connection that transcends the ordinary – reach out today to unlock your dog's true potential.
