February 28, 2022 Solvang, California: The Movement 2022 is taking place in Solvang California June 17, 18, 19 and will have some very special horses and people to share with attendees.

The 2022 theme is Happiness, Health & Horses, offering the largest variety of horse related demonstrations and discoveries ever. Join Monty Roberts and other popular presenters for the only event where you (and your horse if you want to bring it along) can have it all. From gentling wild horses to groundwork and trailer loading to experiencing the brand new Mountain Trail Course. From holistic health and hoof consults to bodywork for your horse and for yourself. From the newest barn concepts to practicing breathing and sharing stories, to a private Templeton Thompson concert. You can learn more about the amazing presenters on the website here.
The group events take place over two days, June 17 & 18th and per popular demand individual sessions are offered on day 3, June 19th, where you can put all concepts to practice.

MONTY ROBERTS AVAILABLE FOR SELECT INTERVIEWS:
The New York Times bestselling author and world-renowned horse trainer Monty Roberts is available for interviews.
MONTY ROBERTS first gained widespread fame with the release of his New York Times Best Selling book, The Man Who Listens To Horses; a chronicle of his life and development of his non-violent horse training methods called Join-Up®. Monty grew up on a working horse farm as a firsthand witness to traditional, often violent methods of horse training and breaking the spirit with an abusive hand. Rejecting that, he went on to win nine world’s championships in the show ring. Today, Monty’s goal is to share his message that “Violence is never the answer.” Roberts has been encouraged by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II with the award of the Membership in The Royal Victorian Order, as well as becoming Patron of Join-Up International. Other honors received were the ASPCA “Founders” award and the MSPCA George T. Angell Humanitarian Award. Monty is credited with launching the first of its kind Equus Online University; an interactive online lesson site that is the definitive learning tool for violence-free training.
