I simply can’t wait to be able to give this gift to all animals I come into contact with. I stay down the road from the SPCA south africas animal shelter. I hope to qualify as a practitioner so I can go to these shelters and help all those animals whom need the rehabilitation so the can find their forever homes sooner and more rapidly. Animals are so pure, so precious. JAMES French, you are a Gif from God to the animals and all others whom have the wisdom that animals should be respected, loved, va.ued and cherished.This warms my heart to know I can become a healer to the creatures I sooo adore the animals that we as humanity were blessed with. They were my life line as a child and at 48 they still are. I am so great full for this skill being availed and I hope to do u proud when I I qualify eventually. Thanku so very much. Bless you

Listening to horses or any animals, unlimited patience, love, respect, joy, plus. Thank you for those beautiful explanations and videos. I rode horses all my life (TB), and I was a passenger on their back; they enjoy my company as much I love them. I was around difficult horses, not their fault, of course, but I managed to redirect their mind in the right direction, and what a pleasure in a result. Animals can read your mind better than anyone can do.

Thank for opening my eyes and my heart to this gentle way of connecting non-verbally with animals. It was incredible to see how my cat and dog responded almost immediately to my calm state of being without any intention on my part to connect. I started the calming technique, and was deeply focused on one spot and on listening and feeling touch as guided in your video when I noticed that both my cat and my dog had climbed onto the sofa next to me and were fully stretched out and fast asleep next to each other. They haven’t relaxed like this before – my cat, Garfield does not trust dogs as all. He tolerates them. And my dog, Minx, is a very timid rescue and very rarely stretches out to sleep, and definitely not next to a cat. I am hoping that this is only the start of a wonderful new way of connecting. Thank you so much!

I love to share this peaceful state with my cats! thank you for sharing this beautiful way to connect!

This touches me on so many levels and I sense its application can be used in a wide variety of areas, even human to human! I know from my meditation practice that meditating with another enables you to go deeper and quicker than when you are alone, so in many ways it is not surprising. This should be a required course for anyone who intends to work with animals. Truly outstanding

Various things have lead me to this point, over sixty years from when I was first plonked on a horse, when I felt my life had begun. Animals, particularly horses and dogs have been my closest friends through thick and thin, including some terribly rough spells.
Despite coming all too close to 70, with what many would consider a pretty vast experience of riding, teaching,training and rehabilitation with a special interest in the relationship, biomechanics, balance and posture of horse and rider to foster the art of riding through invitation rather than equipment, only now, do I feel I am beginning to learn something. The time is right to fine tune all this and I feel I’ve been led to the Trust Technique for that very purpose, it’s exactly what I need.
Thank you James and your team for putting the courses together in such an accessible form and for sharing your passion and deep understanding, I wholeheartedly wish to be a part of it and urge others to join in building a greater understanding between all sentient animals.
