Ana Beltrán Bustamante

My name is Ana Beltrán Bustamante, I'm Spanish but I live in France.

When I was 8 years old, my mother introduced agility to me, and I started competing some years later. Agility is my passion and it's a really important part of our family life! My spouse, Christelle Riot, is a high-level competitor and member of the French team. We have a young daughter, five Border Collies and a sheltie. I have competed with small, medium and large dogs of various breeds in many major competitions in Spain and France. Judging agility was always my dream, and I’ve been living that dream since 2011!

I have judged in Spain, France, Italy, Norway, Portugal, Czech Republic, Austria, Holland, Latvia, Finland... I have had the pleasure to judge at EO Junior 2018, Spain Championships, France Championships, Riga Cup, Sextuple Euskadi, Gotor, Moravia Open, Norwegian Open, IconiX and many other events, where I’ve seen some extraordinary teams & met wonderful people. I'm so excited to enjoy agility together with you! ❤️

Annemarie van den Berge

I am a Norwegian judge living close to Trondheim. I have competed with several Welsh Corgi Cardigans, and am still competing with one of them. In daily life I have an office job, and I teach several agility classes a week.

In my course design I try to keep a balance between speed and technique, skill and motivation. I prefer courses that have fast and fluent lines in which dogs of all breeds and sizes can flourish, while adding technical elements in which both the dogs and the handlers really get to show off their skills. My main goal is to provide fun but safe challenges, and that people enjoy running my courses together with their dogs. 🙂

I am looking forward to judging the TamSK Agility Open Competition!

Reetta Pirttikoski

I’m Reetta Pirttikoski from Eurajoki, Finland. I have been judging in Finland and abroad ever since I became an FCI agility judge in 2013. My husband Teemu and I have two Border Collies and a Spanish Water Dog at home, and I train and compete actively myself (the undeniable Queen of our household is Sacred Birman Miss Evil…)

On my courses you need to be able to balance speed and skills. I like to offer different handling options and love to test obstacle skills, but the most important thing is to see handlers and dogs enjoy my courses and have fun. So run at full speed, be brave and enjoy every run! 

Jesús Fernández Crespo

I'm Jesus Fernández Crespo from Spain. I started training agility in 2006 and have competed since 2008, first with border collie Coba, and more recently and most successfully with wocker Mokka. My international judging career started in 2020, and I have judged in many tryouts and championships around Europe. 

The competitors should expect courses where the challenge sequences contain fluent lines for the dog but require some layering, where the competitors must trust and believe in their abilities.
