Liberty Audition Questions – Julia

1. Yes yoyo and stick to me can be the same game. Yoyo important to show equal amounts of to and fro. (note as games 4-7 are built on games 1-3, it is possible to combine games)
2. Squeeze alternative: send allow bring back way of going—maybe over cavalettis and turn and face??
3. Or squeeze between you and fence,stop turn and face
4. Teaching spin: drive zone 1, spin on HQ, use circling game and back up (like back/toward to change direction) then instead of change of direction keepin sending zone 1.
5. Circling game: imp to stay neutral don’t have to who 6 laps
