In rally and agility class, when we do practice sequences, I pick an exercise or two to reinforce based on the coursemap and what we find the hardest because it's kinda hard to go through a whole sequence and click/treat after EVERY obstacle/station not to mention unfair to other classmates who are waiting their turn on equipment.
