Richard is a renowned instructor and regulalry teaches Heelwork to Music workshops in the UK and abroad.
Masterclass Workshop - The workshop is aimed at those who already have some moves, but wish to expand their training and gain other idea's for moves. It will be a combination of group and individual attention. Richard says "My thinking is that if the handlers and dogs do not go home tired I have not worked them hard enough!"
Handler places are limited so please book early to avoid disappointment.
Evening Demonstration and Show Case - Come and watch one of Richards famous cabaret evenings. You will be able to see first hand how Richard trains his dogs. He shows the difference in the way each dog needs to be handled according to their temperament, size and character. The demonstration night will show training techniques and short routines with each of Richards dogs . Audience participation is encouraged and questions can be asked at anytime. The evening will be accompanied by Richards commentary which can be humorous as the dogs are not robots and anything can happen!!!
