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!
