“I am very proud to be a part of Her Majesty’s horse training and her passion for their welfare. I believe she is the leading monarch for the advocacy of horses in the world. She is a thought leader in this field. Her Majesty's horses are trained using the Dually Halter, making a difference in the training of sensitive animals by giving the horse the choice to partner in the training.” ~ Monty
“I communicate with a horse in what I call the Language of Equus; a silent language of gestures that is discernible, predictable and effective. Now you can learn from my videos, audio and notes to help you understand the horse as I do. This language is really quite simple, but simplicity becomes its greatest strength.” ~ Monty
Monty Roberts is a renowned horse trainer known as the man who listens to horses and the original horse whisperer. Monty's horse training instructions are accepted worldwide.
Monty has helped thousands of people globally through his Monty Roberts Online Videos to learn how to Join-Up with horses, training young horses, spooky horses, horses that bite. His mustang , Shy Boy , is his most famous horse.
Join-Up methods help horse and trainer to establish a bond of communication and trust. “You must somehow understand that we as horsemen can do very little to teach the horse. What we can do is to create an environment in which he can learn.” ~ Monty
Monty says, “We hear that ‘actions speak louder than words,’ but generally we do not live by it too successfully.” Now Monty has taught thousands of people worldwide how to build trust in animals through our actions and body language.
Monty’s principles really amount to common sense and immense patience. He believes that children and horses have the same behavioral patterns. They are both naturally “flight” animals. "If you frighten them and resort to confrontation, you’ll lose their trust." ~ Monty
"Simple one-on-one reassurances and praise reap long term dividends that can all be undone with the quick slamming of a book on a desk or shouting back." ~ Monty Roberts
"No one of us was born with the right to say 'You must or I'll hurt you' to any other living thing, animal or human". ~ Monty Roberts
"My life's goal is to leave the world a better place than I found it, for horses and for people too". ~ Monty Roberts

Hi everyone,

I was wondering wether any of you know of any other online courses on horses...
I really like this university and have learned and still am learning a lot. It would be nice to take an additional course (maybe even an accredited course, offering a certificate or something like that upon completion of the course).

Thanks,
Camilla-Faye

Hi Camilla. There are courses available - at Flags Up Farm in California or, if you are elsewhere in the world, you may have instructors available to run courses. Search this website for courses. You do get certificates for your completed work. Cheers, Jo.

Hi Jo,
Yes, I have read and know that they offer courses at Flag Is Up Farm; however, I can't go anywhere to take courses at the moment, which is why I'm looking for online courses:)
Thank you very much, though.

Hi Camilla - I don't know of any specific courses on line but if used carefully You Tube is a source of all sorts of training though a big word of caution as there is some godawful stuff on there too!!

If you type in equine psychology courses online into google there's lots of stuff that comes up but again, not all of it is violence free. Let us know how you get on

Thank you, Vicci.
Yes, youtube can be a very useful tool; however, like you said, you have to be really careful. I never go to youtube by myself.
Thank you for the website. I'll definitely check it out.

I appreciate your help,
