HORSE WHISPERING 101
Connection, Communication, Confidence and Care
Horse Whispering 101 is the very beginning of our training experience at ROTH geared towards the beginning or returning horse enthusiast, competitor, hobbiest, or professional.
"From a foundation of communication, training, care, and partnership become a far deeper and more fulfilling experience for both horse and human." - Anna Twinney
If the horses are calling to you, but you aren't quite ready to jump into the exclusive ROTH Foundation training, then Horse Whispering 101 is for you!
Let ROTH teach you not only the care and handling needed for a happy and healthy horse, but also the most important factor, the language. All of the ROTH methodologies are founded in a comprehensive understanding of the language of Equus.
To be clear, the Language of Equus isn't a training style or method that you teach to the horses. It is the language they use to communicate naturally. It is their language, and it is far more comprehensive than most ever realize. By working with, and in the language of, Equus, in every aspect of your horsemanship, you give your horse a voice and create a true personalized partnership - a relationship built on trust, connection and communication... not dominance.

REACH OUT TO HORSES® CLINIC
(3-5 Days)
This clinic forms the foundation for all others as you will be introduced to the silent language of the horse. Through demonstrations, lectures, exercises and “hands-on”, which can be tailored to your requirements, you will experience how all contact with your horse, your intentions and body language form a communication system.
You will be provided with means for recognizing and interpreting the language so that you can build upon your knowledge at home. Understanding the way the horse perceives the world and how it learns will enable you to work with their mind and not their body mass. Witness the starting of a young horse to its first saddle, bridle and (where applicable) rider and the following days of training through non-violent methods.
As you see the harmony unfold before you, notice the young horse develop personality and build confidence. Through continuity of body language and ground-driving exercises we will show you the natural progression to take this same language and its principles onto horseback for everyday pleasure and problem solving. Learn how to trust your intuitive guidance as you open your heart and your mind to the wisdom of horses.
This experience can often be life changing and deals with your personal path to success through methods and techniques which have been developed into simple understandable steps that teach the potential horse owner right through to Olympic dressage and show-jumping champions.

REACH OUT TO PROBLEM SOLVING
Each clinic explores the personal desires and requirements of both horse and handler in order to build a 50/50 partnership which is achieved by "listening" to one another. Confidence is creating harmony through an open mind in order to gain knowledge and understanding of the way the horse perceives the world.
You will discover some of the most common reasons for your horses’ remedial behavior. Through demonstration, discussion, human to human exercises and hands-on work with your horse you will be given the opportunity to create a tool box of methods and concepts to successfully solve behavioral problems. Learn methods based on trust and designed to have your horse want to work with you rather than feel forced to.
Some of the problem solving issues we address involve:
- Gentling the untouched horse
- Haltering
- Teaching to tie
- Leading
- Catching
- Loading
- Crossing Water & Other obstacles
- Head shy
- Standing to mount
- Preparation for the farrier & vet
- De-sensitization
- Pulling back
We highly recommend that students attend the Reach Out to horses® clinic prior to attending this clinic.
“Anna, Thanks so much for all of your training at the Roth Clinic. Red and Tornado are actually behaving much better. You're the best! ”.
- Steve, New York
