Default beginning obedience training

Hi I have a 9 month yorkie, she listens really well in the house, but if she gets outside she takes off. I have enrolled her in a beginning obedience class. I feel that for her safety and my sanity I need to have verbal control of her. I have heard that you should not use a choke chain on these little ones due to the fact that it is possible to collapse their trachea's. Has anybody here done obedience training with out using a choke chain, and if so what did they use? I hate the thought of possible hurting her! The instructor told me that she has never seen this happen. But I still feel very skeptical
