About the Course

Ever wondered how our equine friends can have a voice of their own? We’re thrilled to welcome Jane Taylor, an innovative practitioner blending American Sign Language (ASL) hand signals with intuitive horsemanship, empowering horses to express their preferences and autonomy. Informed by groundbreaking European research, her approach aligns with findings such as the study published in Applied Animal Behaviour Science, where horses were trained to use visual symbols to indicate comfort choices—like asking to keep or remove a blanket—demonstrating genuine understanding and autonomous decision-making (sciencenorway.no).
