Quick Tip #81--Immerse Yourself In The Language



I understand that the quickest way to learn to speak a foreign language is to learn basic structure and vocabulary and then go to a place where that language is spoken and watch, listen and learn.

Immersion in that language is a great teacher.

The same is true of horse body language. Learn the basics of heard communication. Then go sit in a herd with your mouth shut and your eyes open.

The bigger herd the better, but one can learn a great deal from just studying the interaction between two horses.

Ten hours of intense study doing this is worth many hours of watching big money clinicians.

(And it is free).
