“Many people watch, but few see.”

- Monty Roberts

In Horse Sense for People, Monty asks us to rethink the way we use power over others and shows you how with people, as with horses, the gentle way is the better way. Practical, philosophical and provocative, Horse Sense for People demonstrates how trust, respect and communication -- not coercion -- are the keys to fruitful relationships.

Ideal for:

Managers
Corporate Groups
Persons Interacting with Challenging People

This paperback book is rich in anecdotes about both horses and people; it applies the lifetime of lessons Monty has learned from horses to the way we relate to each other in the workplace and at home. These metaphors illustrate a new way of seeing and experiencing your relationships.

For example, Monty tells the story of the wild mustang mare that connected with him so quickly that she protected him from what she perceived to be a terrible threat. Monty guides us to understand and empathize with his stories and to transfer this learning to more effective human communication.

Just realizing that so many intelligent, caring people were gathering peacefully to help each other and the world we all live in to become a safer, healthier, happier place means a great deal to me. Especially during a time when tempers seems so short and outlooks look so grim.I wanted to make sure you realized that the "good ripple" effect of what you do extends beyond your attendees, and that even those who are watching unseen from the sidelines benefit from your efforts.We visited "Flag is Up" Farm last summer and still remember fondly the warmth with which we - totally unexpected strangers - were received. Thank you for all you do.

Grateful

Thank you so much for the opportunity to attend The Movement online. I had always wanted to attend in person, but financially it wasn't possible. So I was very grateful this year that the lower ticket price made it possible for me to learn from Monty and all the other wonderful presenters. It was a dream come true for me and I loved every minute of the three days. I don't have a horse, I am just a horse lover and animal communication student. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, I learned so much and also felt an emotional healing as I watched the horses throughout the event. I am very grateful for Monty, his family and all the presenters and how they shared their knowledge about horses and how to make their lives better

The Movement of your Heart and Soul

Incredibly honored to hear the wisdom and gentle soul of a great man at a great event! If you missed this- make sure you put it on your calendar for next year!

I thoroughly enjoyed this 2 day event. It was my first time experiencing Monty Roberts in person, and I appreciated the balance of topics between a deeper understanding of ourselves as humans, cultivating a healthier awareness and way of being with ourselves and one another, and our understanding and relationship with horses in service to the horses' health and quality of experience.

Inspired to grow and improve

Movement Weekend was everything I was looking forward to; inspirational, fun, informative, and beautiful. I enjoyed making new friends that care about the welfare of horses as much as I do. I practiced deep belly breathing with my horse today and using the dually halter. We had one of our best afternoons together. Thank you for giving me tools to grow and build a better horse/human relationship. I appreciate everyone who made the weekend so wonderful

Symposium The Movement

As a local SYValley Resident, I wanted to see Monty in action. I was so impressed by the warmth of everyone there and I was truly impressed by Monty’s horsemanship. I took away a clear understanding of things we do right on our ranch and furthermore deepened my love for my horses and our bond. Thank you so very much for your hospitality and your energy!

A Masterpiece of Equine Wisdom

"Monty Roberts' "Horse Sense for People" is a profound exploration of communication, trust, and non-violent interaction—not just with horses but with humans as well. The principles Monty shares are rooted in his lifetime of experience and his revolutionary Join-Up technique, which emphasizes understanding and empathy over dominance. This book transcends its equine focus and offers lessons applicable to life itself, making it a must-read for horse lovers and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of leadership and relationships. It has inspired me to re-evaluate my own approaches to both human and horse interactions, aligning them with Monty’s gentle yet effective philosophy. The shopping process at Monty’s shop was seamless, and I was delighted with the customer care. I highly recommend this book and Monty’s exceptional tools for creating better connections with animals and people alike. Thank you for sharing this invaluable wisdom!"

Really enjoyed the Horses eye

"Really enjoyed the Horses eye view of their world! Facilitates empathy and fosters patience, both towards equines and fellow people :-). When I heard about the ending of the magnificent buffalo Black Diamond on our old nickels I thought again about noble Brownie and what you accomplished together. Thank you for sharing the sorrow and joy, so he can still continue to make people smile, and believe that even when life is unfair we will keep reaching for the stars!"

"This book was another excellent read by Monty. It is amazing how he can apply so much common sense to working with people that he learned from understanding and working with horses. Like all the other books I have that were written by Monty, once you start reading it, you do not want to put it down until you reach the last page. Then you are left with the feeling that you wish it didn't end as it was such an enjoyable read and lesson . My wife Sonia felt the same way when she read it. Again, Monty has made this world a better place and his books are so great, filled with his knowledge and life reality."

Horse Sense for People

"I wish I'd had this book while raising my 4 children. I have not only learned better about horses, but also about pigs. We have been raising them for 4-H. But this book should be required reading in high school and college. It would save so many families from all the difficulties in raising children. I gave this book to a young man who works at Vons. While he was bagging my groceries, he stated, "The very first line in the book had me hooked. Wow! I can't thank you enough." Monty, you signed this book to Thomas and I am forever grateful to you for the quality of writing and the stories you tell. I have a new respect for the new pigs we are getting for 4-H. May God Bless You and your whole family."
