I am a student of Canine Behaviour Sciences and have found valued insights throughout this course. As a dog trainer, a label I hesitate to use, I absolutely find success in building trust as a primary pathway to living with companion animals. In fact, I'm so inspired by this course I couldn't wait to apply for the practitioner course, to which I foresee significantly changing my career with animals.

Thank you, James and Shelley!

Hello there,
as I am working with the Masterson Method we got taught to pay close attention to what the horse has to say to our doing. We have been asked to trust in our instinct and gut feelings and overtime the horses body language guided me most times through the session.
I learned with each horse how to communicate and what was important to them and that each of one of them were checking how much you pay attention to them.
But when I got into a deeper stage with them I was lost, I did know not to interrupt them in their process and this could go on for sometimes more then 30 min. ( This blow my bodywork session most of the time) I just knew it was good for the horse to let him sort it and wait until he comes out again.
But in this times I was in a grey zone of not know what I really was doing because that was not masterson anymore.
So I kept searching and the media of the internet and its algorithm guided me to TT.
Or you could say TT found me.
I did become a member of the TT video course and as I got along with the Course I knew I had to learn and understand it more to get a deeper understanding of the present moment and how to deliver a feeling without talking and much thinking.
The wonderful thing on TT is you can use it on "any living creature" and it works.

Hi! I got interested in the Trust Technique last winter. The work we had been doing for one year with our adopted sledge dogs was paying off. They had already changed so much, were doing amazing with pulling the sledge, and their interactions with both humans and their fellow dog companions had improved dramatically (...) The results are extremely encouraging so far. Especially with the time that I or my husband have been able to work with the TT daily. Of course, we certainly would have seen much faster results if we had only one animal to work with. But it’s also very rewarding to work with all of them and see how they react, the dynamic, etc. And it has improved the fluidity of our animal-human intuitive communication - the dogs have really opened up.
We’ve already come such a long way! I can't wait to keep practising. Thank you so much 🙂

Since I saw the first video about the trust technique I was fascinated by this way of life between humans and animals. I watched all the videos with curiosity and stunning and my heart is deeply touched. I got a lot of wonderful connections and adventures with wild animals in my garden and with my own animals which are donkeys, ducks, a rabbit and a cat. Since 2 years I am working as an animal-assisted therapist and I would like to rise up my knowledge by learning the exercises in the practitioner course! I like the way of teaching like James does.

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. There have been so many benefits with our animals. The most precious has been a deepened heart connection with our dog Lara. We had been friendly flatmates, now it's so much more.

It has assisted me immensley with my relationships with people as well as delightful birds, animals and native animals. Sadly, my wonderful companions have all passed on before I knew about this course. My companions, I feel are with me whilst I am doing this course even though now in spirit form.
I am excited as the Teaches course, (not started yet) will empower me to spread the love, relationships and joy of being peaceful with all beings..
Living in Coogee, Western Australia, I am looking forward to sharing this delightful technique with the many humans and animals of all different types here. Thank you James and team for all the incredible videos. It is great to be able to go over them time and again.

Amazing content, full of hope for the relationship between animal and human. Finally a point of view with kindness, love, compassion. This feel so normal, I'm wondering why this was never share before.

One of my cats changed his behaviour of obssesional feed every evening. I hope their fear of the ringbell will change too.

I've noticed that animals see me in different way, when I'm quiet inside around them.
It's sure, I want to add this way to my pratice with animals.

Thank you James and Shelley

Thank you for this course and your wonderful work. I am from Germany and started the course about 4 months ago and started to apply the technique on my 2 sheep.
first, I thought I am unable to learn the trust technique or that I did not understand it correct as (in the beginning and for quiet a while - several weeks!) I could see no reaction on my sheep at all.
I continued because James often said: "just continue and it will work sooner or later." so I did. The first I noticed was that my relationship to my sheep changed. We had been very close already before the course, but now I could connect better to "their whole being" and I could feel and see that they also connected on a deeper level with me.
They became much calmer, much less excited and greedy for food, and more patient just being/ standing with me.
Then I noticed the chewing and yawning (I had never seen them yawn in the 2 years before). Now, they obviously look forward to our daily trust technique-meditation together - they fall asleep while I am doing it, sometimes snoring and totally relaxed, and for me it is a great joy to be in this absolute peaceful "room" together with them.
it was worth being patient for 2-3 months.
James, thank you, for sharing your work in this way.
Greeting from Germany, Kira

Love the new course content and structure!

So much goodness and wisdom and love here. Its an honour to be part of this wonderful community

Gosh where to start!

Thank you so much James and Shelly for providing such a beautiful course.

I have learnt such a lot, and loved to see all of the animals that you have both helped to overcome so many traumas.

The Trust Technique has been designed to bring peace and harmony to troubled souls – both animal and human, and help develop trusting relationships. The course is very in-depth, with plenty of consultations where we can see the positive effects of mindful regard, creative reaction and trusted cooperation in action.

It is invaluable in creating a relationship between the human and animal, and in my humble opinion, everyone should learn how to do this. In my particular case, I plan to open an animal sanctuary, which would not be possible if I did not have a grater understand of working with animals.

I can thoroughly recommend it to anyone who has or likes to interact with animals in any way.

A must for the greater awakening of humanity.

Thank you, I have learnt so much about animals and also myself. The course was very very comprehensive, and concepts that at first I did not grasp, were covered within the videos in a variety of ways, to truly embed the information into my consciousness, and in turn, my subconscious. Beautifully presented with compassion and warmth. Thank you James and Shelly, once again.

This course is extremely informative. It gave me the information I needed to address the behavioral issues in my animals calmly and efficiently. I enjoy the fact that there is no pressure or dominance in any of the teachings. Most animal handling techniques I've learned used either systems of dominance or some sort of pressure and release. It is so refreshing to see something that is cooperative instead of commanding. I'm grateful for what these videos have taught me, and I'm looking forward to improving my relationship with my animals!

Love, love, love this program. I am so grateful to everyone that was involved w/ creating this video program of the Trust Technique. I have a rescue dog that has many challenges from her experiences when she was a pup. We have worked with many top internationally renown dog trainers and I never really felt like we were addressing the core of her anxieties. I even had a vet recommend putting her on Prozac and I can honestly say, there were many days that I was ready to give up and put her on it. I even went as far as getting the prescription filled. But now I no longer feel the need.

Now that I have found the Trust Technique, she has been making tremendous progress and I'm confident that we will be able to overcome all of her challenges. I don't know what we would have done if we had not found this truly amazing and inspiring program.

Not only is the TT amazing, the way the online program is set up is top notch. The videos are in bite size chunks so it's easy to make progress even if you only can squeeze in 30 minutes at a time. The buttons on the videos where you can go back or forward 10 seconds is also super helpful. I've done many video courses and this production is second to none. The videos of the consults will bring tears of joy to any animal lover's eyes. What these animals were able to overcome using the TT was simply amazing.

As an added bonus it has improved my tennis game. I'm able to stay focused on the ball and keep my mind calm during and after points. Who would have thought that what I'm doing for my dog would help my tennis game 🙂

I thoroughly enjoyed watching all of the videos. Many of them touched me deeply and left me in tears which was a sort of sympathetic release response I think. There is a lot to get through, and naturally a lot of repetition, but I soon realised that this just confirmed the learning, so I feel as if I have learned a lot through observing James and Shelley doing their thing. It is certainly very effective in 'real life' too, and I find it amazing the way animals respond to something so essential and simple - wonderful. it really is like magic! For me, especially with the private consultations, I would love to have seen some more follow up videos or messages to see how the people got on by themselves and if the issue was totally resolved without James being in the mix. Inspirational. I just love how respectful it is of the individual animal, and it's so easy for humans to over-ride that. thanks for a great course.

My overall opinion is there is a wide range of experiences demonstrated, with good narrative to follow the concepts step by step through the 3 principles. This has provided a good demonstration of the technique to practice with confidence. If you can couple that with other techniques or theoretical understanding, eg. Meditation, mindfulness, hypnosis, psychotherapy, Reiki, natural horsemanship, Trust technique brings a greater depth to your interactions with horses and sets a beautiful pathway for sentient relationships. I was brought to tears by many stories shown in these videos and reminded of many similar stories from horses in my lifetime. Although I have been fortunate to have worked predominantly in this way with horses, I can think of many rushed moments with horses that have ended in frustration and regret. To quote a great horseman ' give a task an hour and it will take 10 minutes, give a task 10 mins and it will take an hour' The joy of working with your own horses first in this practice is you soon find you can enter a peaceful state within a couple of breaths. The healing power of breath is amazing. Peace and Release. Namaste.

Hello James & Shelley,
I was very, very impressed with your video course. Simple to use and easily understandable material. Well formatted, beautiful videos, well explained tuition section, lovely music, and especially the enormous amount of information and footage. I can see how you both put your heart and Soul into developing not just this method over so many years, but also into the teaching it via this course to others. There is a real positive vibe in your delivery, the lay-out of the page design and the logistics as to how to handle it, as well as the accessibility to personal help via chats, your swift responses and amusing language (such as the Harry Potter theme of the owl messenger in your automatic email response :)). In addition, James himself is a wonderful role model with his calm demeanour and loving personality.
I would also like to comment on the amount of video footage for so many different animals in this course, which is only meant for members and their own pets at home. Admittedly, I am surprised about the extensiveness of the material you offer just for your own personal use. It does have a rather professional training level feel to it (for instance the percentage of completion part). I could imagine, people who just want to work with their own animals, might not feel drawn to study the course in such detail about other animals or learn about how to conduct consultations. Very, very helpful and exciting for members such as me, who have decided to pursue a professional career in this beautiful method as a certified practitioner. For the ones who are not, a smaller package (but bigger than the "Messages of Trust") might be more suitable and also affordable.
For me, this course experience was fantastic, because it was exactly what I was looking for in my life at this time. I thoroughly enjoyed it and am very much looking forward to go all in with the professional training in June this year.

Working with the Trust Technique has helped me to work with and understand animals in a new way. I am have recently graduated as an animal healer and am very excited to be going on to study the practitioner course with James and Shelley. I know that the Trust Technique will help me to be able to help so many more animals and guardians. The depth of information here is incredible. It truly feels like these videos not only teach you how to do the technique but they support you and give you confidence to be able to do it well. It has already helped me to help my animals (cats, dogs, horses) to be able to find peace with situations that were causing them anxiety. To be able to help them in this peaceful and profound way is such a gift. Thank you!

This course has helped me to learn a new way of relating to and helping to heal my animals. The variety of situations that are covered in the course is hugely helpful in gaining insight and information as to how to help different animals and people in different scenarios. The information is given in a clear, relaxing and understandable way which lends comfort and support and helps you to feel that you can really do this and make a difference for so many. I have enjoyed using the videos to help me work through different situations with my various animals. To be able to help them find peace with situations that were causing them stress has been a huge gift to us all. Thank you.

I wonder, if it is possible that James French is a modern day "Saint Francis of Assisi (patron saint of animals)".

If I had to describe the course in one word "paradoxical" So simple, yet, miraculously profound!!

If "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.", then The Trust Technique scratches the surface of heaven!

On a practical note, the video course is clear and concise. The support is super, and the price is more than fair!

Much Gratitude and Warmth to James French and his team!!
Many Blessings,

I highly recommend the Trust Technique Video Course to anyone interested in interacting with the animal friends who share our world in a mutually-beneficial way. As a professional in the Equine Industry for many years, I find the Trust Technique Video Course to be of unprecedented value. It is a one-of-a-kind course that facilitates inner peace, understanding and cooperation for humans and animals alike. It is my wish that the principles taught in this course become mainstream. Thank you for the gift of this course! It has changed my life and the lives of the animals around me forever!! Marilyn Rickman
