Located in beautiful Templeton, Fast Forward Agility is owned and operated by top agility competitor Rachel Sanders.
Rachel and her dogs have been finalists at national events in UKI, USDAA, and American Kennel Club competitions since 1996. She has proudly represented the United States as a member of five different world teams with five different dogs.
In addition to competing with her own dogs, Rachel teaches agility to handlers and dogs of all levels. She is a highly sought-after camp and seminar presenter, known for her clear, thoughtful instruction and commitment to developing strong handler–dog partnerships.
In 2015, Rachel became a certified coach with OneMind Dogs. She believes the OneMind Dogs methodology provides the best foundation for understanding the relationship between dog and handler and how dogs interpret and follow handling cues. From this foundation, teamwork is enhanced through carefully taught responses to verbal cues.
Rachel has been a regular contributor to Clean Run Magazine and is the author of several training DVDs available through Clean Run. Additional online training resources are available through the Clean Run Learning Center.
As the sport of agility continues to evolve, Rachel believes teaching and coaching must evolve as well. She remains committed to ongoing education by training and competing with top handlers in the United States and internationally, ensuring her students benefit from the most current techniques and strategies in the sport.
