Download or read book Learn Universal Horse Language written by Hertha James and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-11-27 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Universal Horse Language program can be done alongside anything else you are already doing with your horse. If you are interested in liberty work, it is a brilliant introduction to staying safe and having fun. Universal Horse Language guides you through a series of eight exercises done with the horse at liberty in a large roomy area. The exercises begin with quiet sharing of time and space. The last exercise can become a high energy frolic with your horse. Each exercise flows into the next one as the horse and handler get to know each other's body language. Body language is the first language of horses, so it makes sense for us to learn the natural body language of horses. Because horses already know these things, this book is about training handlers rather than training horses. Learning and using the Universal Horse Language exercises is a superb way to set 'dates' with a horse. Since all horses 'speak' the same language, we have a way of communicating with any horse. We can use it to begin a new relationship or strengthen an existing one. Once we learn it, we will never forget it. This book is another excellent addition to Hertha's 'Life Skills for Horses' series.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With her landmark first book Horse Speak: The Equine–Human Translation Guide, trainer Sharon Wilsie upended conventional methods of human–equine communication (using words and ropes, for example) with her clear classification of the language horses use with each other (body, breath, and intent), as well as an unparalleled explanation of how we as humans can effectively mirror it. Learning to “listen” and “talk” to horses in their language, instead of expecting them to comprehend ours, is a milestone in the progressive philosophy of horsemanship, helping find positive solutions to behavior and training problems and ultimately leading to fewer misunderstandings between horses and humans. In her much–anticipated follow–up, Wilsie uses true stories to relate examples of “problems” and how they were solved using Horse Speak. Her engaging narrative introduces readers to dozens of real–life scenarios from different barns, various disciplines, and riders and handlers with contrasting experiences and backgrounds. Wilsie highlights her Horse Speak process, the clues that point to the best course of action, and the steps she takes to connect with horses that have shut down, grown confused, or become sulky or aggressive for any number of reasons. The result is a book full of incredible insight and exciting possibilities.

Download or read book Language of Horsemanship written by Dick Pieper and published by Morris Communications Corp. This book was released on 2013-12-17 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dick Pieper’s The Language of Horses will help any rider use the knowledge of equine characteristics to initiate communication and create successful interaction in a way the horse can understand. For example, an understanding of equine body language enables the human to alter what might seem an aggressive approach to the horse. By changing his approach, the person can create a sense of security, rather than fear, in his horse. Likewise, the horse’s quick flight-or-fight reflexes, designed for self-protection, can be channeled into fast responses to the rider’s cues. Consistency and repetition are key to the rider developing the horse’s differentiation skills with minimal stress. The resulting and growing predictability experienced by both helps create a calm horse comfortable with his rider.
