JAG presents
Video Analysis Clinic
with Chris Parker
Get out your camcorder & tape your runs! JAG is offering a video
analysis session with Chris Parker on Thursday June 30 from 6:30 -
9:30 PM.
Chris will be reviewing videos of your agility runs and/or training
sessions to offer you advice and diagnosis of problems in both your
handling and your dogs understanding of the game. She'll be looking
for strengths and weakness in both dog and handler, analyzing
handlers clarity of cues, dogs direction, contact, weaving and
jumping form as well as stride analysis. Chris will also help you
understand in easy to understand terms what is required of the
handler and dog in order to make your runs more successful. You'll
also learn what to look for when reveiwing your own videos.
This is a Group session. Your reviews will be shared with all that
attend so EVERYONE can learn more about handling and dog locomotion.
Don't have a videotaped run of yourself or a little camera shy?
You're still welcome and attend and learn .... Since this is a group
session, you can learn a lot from watching reviews of other people's
runs.
During this Three Hour Clinic, we expect that 20-30 Videos will be
reviewed. More than one run will be reviewed per handler as
availability permits.
It is preferred, for best feedback that the video should include
handler AND dog in as tight a frame as possible.
Recommend level is Open/Advanced and Above; however JAG members at
the NOVICE LEVEL are welcome
