Not sure about show ring training videos but you can watch videos online from the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. Here's the link: http://www.westminsterkennelclub.org/videos/ .
Also, go to any local shows and watch the handlers. You might be able to find someone who will mentor you that way.

You need a hands-on class in "Ring Craft" ... A group class is better than one-on-one instruction -- Professional handlers at dog shows make it LOOK effortless, but there's a LOT to learn & master
asit...there is lots of politics in the show ring. For many breeds, and that includes German Shepherds, the only way to get your dog noticed, at least in the U.S., is with a professional handler. As the saying goes, "the judges look at both ends of the lead."

I don't believe he's in the US but there are politics involved with any human activity so even if he'd be showing under FCI rules, politics are a given (more so as you advance and get better at handling).
If you can find handling classes be sure and take them. It definitely is not as easy as it looks. But do watch experienced and/or professional handlers. You can learn from them.

You can learn how to dye a dog, drug a dog, get orthodontist work on a dog, plastic surgery on a dog, yadda, yadda!
I finished five CHs on four different terrier breeds and saw it all.
In the classes I had no problems with good dogs. Undefeated to the CH with a couple of them to their CH. Once I finished them the Specials class is where the big guns take over although I had a few group placements and a group win with a couple of my dogs. I started getting beat by dogs that never even went reserve to mine.
Just enjoy it and know the realities. Learn the judges likes and dislikes AND who your competition is at BOTH ends of the leash. More so at the top end.
The GSD ring in America is the absolute WORST offender with the double handling rule. It's like a circus around their ring......and the dogs are butt ugly!
did I say that with my out loud voice?
