Slide Background

Bring Nicola to your club for the day!

Nicola works with a number of clubs and other agility schools to provide training days for them around the country and sometimes overseas. These days are often annually, biannually, quarterly or monthly as Nicola likes to continue working with a group of people to see them progress and help them on a more continual basis in line with her training ethos. Nicola has limited availability for these but please get in touch to see how she can help you and your students.

Nicola usually runs two formats for training days, though formats are customised dependant on requirements. There are course running or sequencing sessions, focussing on handling consistency and course lines; or skills workshops that allow handlers and dogs to focus on one group of skills, such as weaves, stop contacts, running contacts, tunnels skills, obstacle commitment. The list is endless and can be focussed on your group’s needs.

Upcoming Events

Keep an eye here for the latest spaces on our training events. Wild Paws run their own training events, often with Nicola but on occasion guest trainers at venues around the North West. These include our ever popular Training Camps. These are all bookable via our online system using the links next to each event, when available. Our Wild Paws Members do get priority booking on these events so they are often sold out before they can be offered outside of Wild Paws.
