You & your dog do a dance routine to music. Fortunately, she's graceful; I'm not!! It uses many of the same moves as agility without the racing run the whole time. Corabel isn't big on running, nor will she jump much so I thought this would be fun. We've only done 3 intro classes so far so our routine is pretty mundane still! She knows how to spin, twirl, circle, curtsy, Dance high and we are working on Backup, Rollover and Whee (circling around me the opposite direction). It's a lot of fun and I'd like to keep going with it and maybe join our local club.
It turns out that this sport started in my area so there is a large club not far from here and quite a following. Here is a link to the World freestyle Organization and a bunch of Youtube links that were sent to me by the local club:
