Students will learn the different ways horses use body language (ears, eyes, mouth, neck, tail, legs, and hooves), and verbal and non-verbal communication of behaviors (sounds, posturing, and repeated habits) to communicate with us and other horses. 

I am huge believer in the power of communication and I love horses.  So, this class is a great opportunity to combine both things. I also recently presented at the 2020 American Youth Horse Council Symposium on this topic.   My life-long experiences with horses has led me to research and study horse behavior.  Learning how horses communicate opens up huge opportunities for us to understand them.  As a speaker and educator, I continue to learn more about effective communication and relationships (both horse and human).
