“Thanks again for this terrific opportunity learning the communication secrets of the equine online. This was money and time well spent. I can’t thank you enough.” – morsemaryjo
 
Join-Up!

This Week’s Question and Answer 
Do you think that being able to win a horse’s trust and communicate with them is an art that can be learnt or a natural talent that you are simply born with? By which I mean, you can teach someone the theory on how to do something but being able to make a ‘connection’ with an animal which has a mind / personality of its own, is it really possible?

 

Monty’s Answer:

 There is no doubt in my mind that if it took “born in” talent to execute my methods I would never have discovered them nor would I have able to execute them. The horses were my teachers, my providers and my friends. What I do is teachable and learnable. There are thousands of students globally now that amaze me with their ability. I don’t want any student to be as good as I am; I want every student to be a lot better.

I'm Shy Boy

For 9 year olds and up!

Interpreted by Monty Roberts
Illustrations by Sisko Tahon-Raulo and Phillipa “Millie” Raulo
SHY BOY SPEAKS! 
I’m Shy Boy is the story of Monty Roberts’ mustang companion, beginning before he was adopted. His tale begins in the Nevada mountains, where Shy Boy was born into a wild herd of horses. Seeing the world through the eyes of a horse, you experience his first encounters with the humans who capture him. His surprise at meeting Monty, a man who moves and speaks like a horse, develops into a bond of trust that will last a lifetime. Shy Boy begins an ongoing adventure to bring non-violence and communication into people’s lives, and to allow them to treat their horses with respect and understanding. Shy Boy and Monty live on Flag Is Up Farms in California, where they continue their adventures together and fulfill Monty’s mission, “To leave the world a better place than I found it for horses and for people too.”

Monty’s Challenge
In your first book titled “The Man Who Listens to Horses” readers get an insight into your life and how you came about developing a more gentle approach to training horses. Do you think that perceptions have changed since that book came out years ago about training horses and how you can actually turn something into a positive thing by pure determination and commitment?

Monty’s Principles

Emma Join-Up

Hi – lovely to see an 11-year-old girl joining up for the first time. Just thought I’d share my story of my 12-year-old daughter achieving her first join up a couple of months ago with her 14.1hh pony… just beyond words to be a parent watching that from outside the round pen and hoping, hoping it’s going to work out for them – but she was perfect and her pony took a bit of encouragement to get him away from the fence but then followed her in and they walked around and around enjoying that hooked-up feeling. Just magic!!! The smile on her face will stay with me for a long long time… thanks to Monty for giving all of us the opportunity to connect with our horses in that magic way…

Horses and Soldiers Great Feedback!

Eileen Slater: Just finished watching Monty’s program “Horse Sense and Soldiers” on the Military Channel. Thank you Monty for not only helping these vets, but also bringing attention to the needs of combat veterans. The impact of the Join-up experience is never less than compelling, as is your willingness to be generous with your personal story as well. Thank you.

 

Diana Walcutt: Monty, loved the show on the Military Channel tonight. I work with PTSD vets and you have a very special way to their hearts that most of us will never accomplish. Thank you for who you are and the work you are doing for both horses and people. I can’t wait to come back out there next year for the Special Training! With love, Diana

 

Katie Hastings: I loved the show ! You are such an amazing horseman. I love the way you work with horses and the way you teach others how to work with them. Horses do so much for us and help us on so many levels. Thank you for what you do ! I love natural horsemanship so much and it

is the way that everyone should train horses. It mak…es me so happy and touches my heart the way you work with them. Thank you !

Challenge Yourself!

 

I want all of my students to learn to be better trainers than me! Test yourself each week as I challenge you to answer the question under ‘Monty’s Challenge’. I mean this. Sit down and write an answer. Don’t wait for my answer next week. If you have been reading my Weekly Questions and Answers for the last six months, you should be in a position to do this. Send your answer to my team at: askmonty@montyroberts.com

 

Why should you bother? Because it will help you focus. There is probably a comparable question in your life that needs answering – or will be. If you can gain insight into how to go about answering a practical question that is loosely related to your problem, this exercise will help you answer your nagging question. Then read my answer. Then read my other answers at this link: Ask Monty. The closest answer to mine each week will be awarded a DVD but, more importantly, you will learn! That’s good for you! That’s good for horses!
