Today I’m holding space for the family, friends, students, and countless horse lovers whose lives were changed by Monty Roberts known affectionately as The Horse Whisperer.
In the late ’90s, I found my way into natural horsemanship through his work—and through the way he taught people to listen. He didn’t just show techniques; he helped us learn how to read horse language: body, breath, timing, intention. He made it click that horses aren’t “difficult”—they’re communicating.
I was taught by the first step he gave me: how to observe, how to slow down, and how energy and body position shape what happens next.
Going into the horse world with his certification in my hand Monty inspired me to take that foundation and develop my own unique way of working with horses—using energy, respect, and the belief that understanding is needed not corrections.
Thank you, Monty Roberts, for the gift you left in so many hearts. You will be deeply missed.
Rest in peace. 🤍🐴
