What is LucindaB teaching?

 

As a Certified "Horse Speak Practitioner" Lucinda teaches Sharon Wilsie's work. She also teaches the work of Dr. Steven Peters using his book "Evidence Based Horsemanship", "Affective Neuroscience" by Jaan Pansky. For Equine ethology she uses Dr Marthe Killey Worthington's book "Horse Watch - What it is to be equine". This is the same type of information that Dr Peters, Warwick Schiller, Lockie Phillips and other evidence-based clinicians teach. Lucinda teaches this highly useful information on the horse's Central Nervous System including the Brain, Equine Ethology and Neurochemicals of Emotions, Learning and Memory simply and powerfully.

​

This information helps us know WHY the horse is behaving the way they are and HOW to​ communicate with them effectively. This is the most direct path to returning to calmness and a frame of mind that allows learning, cooperation and performance.

​

“Wow!! Okay all you horse folks near, and far, Lucinda Baker's Clinic at FromtheMother Farm last Friday evening and all-day Saturday was absolutely fabulous! The amount of learning that was possible to come away with was incredible.

Lucinda ties Ethology (the study of animal behavior, in this case horses), with human/horse brain science, Neuroscience, Parasympathetic and Sympathetic body systems, and Horse Speak into a wonderful, clear, understandable PowerPoint presentation. She is funny, has stories to help with the understanding, uses 3 blowup horses to show the activation buttons of Horse Speak in 3D so you can clearly see where they are. She explains things for folks who have never heard any of this kind of stuff- and deepens your understanding if you are already on a journey in this direction! She used her blowup horses for hands-on experience before we brought the living horses to the arena. This gave confidence to folks as she coached them through the parts of Horse Speak that would be practiced that day.”

These exercises are simple and can be practiced at home after the clinic.

"Highly recommend!

I can't tell you how much I have learned from Lucinda! She is very clear in her instruction and patient for me to grasp and practice the information provided. She uses terms I can understand and has helped me both personally, and our horse rescue, immensely. It's more than just Horse Speak - it's a journey of growth for me and the horses! I already see clarity with each and every horse every single day. Our relationships are becoming much more mutually respectful. Much deeper understanding for each other. If I had one wish, it would be that every horse owner/guardian would learn what she has to offer!"
