I am new to the Central Florida area (Sanford to be exact) and I am looking for a club to train with. I have been training dogs and showing them in performance for over 15 years, but have only just started in the Schutzhund and would like to continue it, as my shepherds did very well. Any information would be wonderful!
Thanks!

Tell him I sent you. I've trained at his place a few times and another board member here decoys for him when not traipsing across Europe. Ed is very knowledgable and when you go to his place be prepared to work.
There's also a wonderful new club in Ocala (okay, I'm biased, I belong to it :grin. I drive all the way from Jacksonville (2 hours each way) almost every weekend, and trust me I wouldn't drive 10 minutes for bad or even "OK" training. I also join Betty's informal training group when I can, which is another 2 hour drive. Anyway, our club is Iron Dog Schutzhund Club and you're welcome to check us out. We love newcomers. PM me for more info.
I have contacted Ed via e-mail, but I haven't heard back. I'm looking for a club that will take me and my dogs to the next level, but also forgiving enough to have a "kind of" beginner training with them. I am willing to drive, that is not an issue.
Thank you very much everyone for the info, I REALLY want to get them going again. My one Shepherd has been on the sleeve before, but my 9 month old Shepherd hasn't done any bite work yet due to the fact that I couldn't find a nice club where I used to live.
Thanks to everyone, and I will be contacting you to get more info!

If the drive out to Ocala or Gainsville is too far there is a decoy in Groveland that trains a few times a week that has worked Nationals a number of times. I know the Iron Dog folks go down there often and thier TD is pleased with his work. He takes his dog and some club dogs there to train. It is a bit closer to Sanford.
The website is at http://www.IronDogSchutzhund.com -- as soon as Art gets me the content you'll actually be able to get some useful info on there
Art is really getting into training and not becoming a "Key Board Trainer" I got him up here twice last week. So in between catching dogs he'll get it done. On top of that his young dog is super. He is getting stronger in protection everytime we meet and his ob. is really coming along.
