This ninth book in the Life Skills for Horses series looks at ways we can learn to be more precise with our body language. When we strive to cut the static or 'noise' out of our body language, the horse will begin to notice that our body orientation, our breathing, our gestures and our energy level can indeed be significant.Horses are expert readers of each other's body language. Even across considerable distance, the flick of an ear expresses a whole sentence. As a horse gets to know a person, he applies the same skill to reading that person's body language.As we learn to remain relaxed and be totally consistent with the way we communicate, we enable the horse to correctly read even our smallest intent.This illustrated book outlines twelve Training Plans that can be developed into Individual Education Programs to suit each specific horse and handler partnership.If you are new or new-ish to equine clicker training (positive reinforcement training), the first chapter details how to get started. The book includes an extensive glossary explaining concepts in everyday language. Each chapter has links to free YouTube video clips that help explain the tasks.
