It used to be called the "evil" arm, but now we know that the "opposite" arm (also referred to as the outside arm or non-dog-side arm) can be used in a variety of ways in agility to tell your dog where you want him to go.

In this self-study course, you'll learn how to train and use the opposite arm to help cue a variety of useful skills on course—collection on tight turns, backside pushes, lead changes, threadles, turns on the flat, side changes, and more—as well as how to make each cue look distinct so the dog has no questions about what you're telling him.

You’ll find the training simple and fun, and a great addition to your handling toolbox! You’ll also learn when and where to use an opposite arm cue on course, so you can use it to help create great runs!

You can start the Tracy Sklenar self-study course whenever you like. It includes 8 lessons that you can complete at your own pace. There are no fixed deadlines or due dates.

"This class is awesome! So much information for a ridiculously reasonable price! I finally understand how the arms and “lasers” can be used together correctly and how I have been screwing up one cue when I use the other! Thank you, Tracy! I LOVED this course!"  —Laura
