Monty Roberts

Monty Roberts (born May 14, 1935) is the American horse trainer who promotes his techniques of natural horsemanship through Join-Up® International, founded in 1997 and named after the core concept of his training method. Roberts believes that horses use a non-verbal language, which he terms "Equus," and that humans can use this gestural language to communicate with horses. In order to share his knowledge of horsemanship, Roberts has authored a number of books including an original best-seller, The Man Who Listens to Horses. Roberts also founded the Monty Roberts International Learning Center to teach his methods in Solvang, California, and an "online university" since 2009 to teach the concepts.
