It has been said: “You have not lived until you have tried running your dog around an agility course, nor have you ever been more humiliated and filled with joy at the same time”
ACT flooring provides a good surface for agility training. We offer agility classes in a series: Agility 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Students who complete the series can continue working on their skills in weekly handling classes. ACT members and students who have begun to compete in agility trials are eligible to join AKC Agility League teams and compete at ACT. We also sponsor run-thrus that provide additional practice opportunities. |

Imagine a look of determination on your dog’s face as he runs hard, nimbly making each turn. He keeps his eyes on you while scampering through tunnels, jumping over hurdles, and beaming with pride. The crowds in the stands cheer as you move together in perfect harmony. That’s the sport of Agility. It can be quite a rush – and one of the best ways to create an even deeper connection between you and your dog.
Agility is a growing dog sport in the United States, with over 1 million entries to the AKC’s Agility Program each year. Dogs race against a clock as they navigate an obstacle course with strong concentration and speed. Whether you just want to have fun exercising with your dog or want to go further and enter an Agility competition, get ready for a fast-paced, rewarding experience that will get you and your dog in the best shape of your lives! https://www.akc.org/sports/agility/
Want to get started?
Obedience is key. Start with obedience training and reliable recall. At the same time you could also start with one of our foundation and balance classes. Flatwork for Agility is your first step!
