“I am very proud to be a part of Her Majesty’s horse training and her passion for their welfare. I believe she is the leading monarch for the advocacy of horses in the world. She is a thought leader in this field. Her Majesty's horses are trained using the Dually Halter, making a difference in the training of sensitive animals by giving the horse the choice to partner in the training.” ~ Monty
“I communicate with a horse in what I call the Language of Equus; a silent language of gestures that is discernible, predictable and effective. Now you can learn from my videos, audio and notes to help you understand the horse as I do. This language is really quite simple, but simplicity becomes its greatest strength.” ~ Monty

Monty has helped thousands of people globally through his Monty Roberts Online Videos to learn how to Join-Up with horses, training young horses, spooky horses, horses that bite. His mustang , Shy Boy , is his most famous horse.
Join-Up methods help horse and trainer to establish a bond of communication and trust. “You must somehow understand that we as horsemen can do very little to teach the horse. What we can do is to create an environment in which he can learn.” ~ Monty
Monty says, “We hear that ‘actions speak louder than words,’ but generally we do not live by it too successfully.” Now Monty has taught thousands of people worldwide how to build trust in animals through our actions and body language.
Monty’s principles really amount to common sense and immense patience. He believes that children and horses have the same behavioral patterns. They are both naturally “flight” animals. "If you frighten them and resort to confrontation, you’ll lose their trust." ~ Monty
"Simple one-on-one reassurances and praise reap long term dividends that can all be undone with the quick slamming of a book on a desk or shouting back." ~ Monty Roberts
"No one of us was born with the right to say 'You must or I'll hurt you' to any other living thing, animal or human". ~ Monty Roberts
"My life's goal is to leave the world a better place than I found it, for horses and for people too". ~ Monty Roberts

I have spent thousands of dollars over the years for clinics, individual lessons etc. but Equus online University is truly the best at TEACHING!!

The camera angles, showing lessons on horses at various levels gives you a real sense of what is being accomplished in the lesson and a real feel for the student to go and try with their horse. This provides the student with a real understanding of what they need to do, what it is supposed to look like and a real feel. Plus a true understanding of what the horse should feel and how best to communicate to the horse what needs to happen.

This allows a student to do less fumbling around on their horse producing less frustration.

The result is that the student feels more confident and thus the horse can feel more relaxed and confident through the learning process.

I just can't say enough about how much this is helping me and my horse Cherokee.

Thank you!! Thank You!!

Hi Cindy!
Yes, you're right. In one case I think, people and horses feel the same ways: learning gets a lot easier when you have fun. And a horseman/woman who watched and understood the videos shown in this Uni is giving clear cues to his horse, and the horse understands what the owner asks him to do. So there's no more frustration on the owner's side, he has fun and the horse as well!

P.S. I'm really grateful to find this Uni with all its possibilities. It opened a total new atmosphere for me and the horse I'm working with (not my own ones).

I Agree Fully!
The ability to allow the video to load when I have a slow connections is fantastic.
I love being able to roll it back just a bit to catch that que I missed. Over and Over to catch the horses reaction and Monty's reaction. Such an Eye opener.

Theses lessons have been a Great Refresher for me!
