The Tellington TTouch Method doesn’t fit neatly into any traditional learning theory quadrant. It avoids escalating pressure to shape behavior and isn’t solely dependent on positive reinforcement, though it integrates well with Clicker training.
We focus on showing animals what we want, breaking tasks into small, manageable steps to keep the learning process low-stress and logical.
One of the most versatile aspects of the Tellington TTouch Method is that it’s not an ‘all or nothing’ approach. Our philosophy and attitude are as significant as the specific techniques. Many find they can adapt their current programs to incorporate the mindfulness and respect central to the Tellington TTouch Method.
This approach leads to lasting, effective results, strengthening your bond with any animal you work with.
The goal isn’t merely to train an animal to respond to specific cues for obedience; it’s to help them develop self-control and the ability to act thoughtfully instead of reacting impulsively to stimuli.
By building self-confidence and self-control, animals can adapt to various situations and settings, even those they haven’t encountered before.
We do not use flooding or encourage ‘learned helplessness.’ The handler’s role is not to dominate but to foster mutual trust and cooperation, creating a true partnership.
Whether you work with horses, dogs, other companion animals, or people, the Tellington TTouch Method offers a shift in perspective, expanding your approach in all areas of life.

The Tellington TTouch Method is a unique approach to animal training and care developed by internationally known trainer, teacher, and author, Linda Tellington-Jones. Based on understanding and respect for our animal friends, this gentle method promotes well-being and adaptive behaviour through an integrated approach that helps to reduce stress and build confidence. TTouch is more than a form of bodywork, it is an entire way of training, handling, and understanding animals in a positive, non-threatening way.
The Tellington Method for horses offers a training approach that encourages optimal performance and well-being.
Based on the understanding that behavioural issues are often caused by pain, soreness, fear or tension in the body, TTouch addresses these underlying issues through a combination of Body Work, specific Ground Exercises, and Riding With Awareness along with an overarching respect and consideration for the horse.
Tellington TTouch goes beyond just what you do with your horse and how you do it; it changes how you believe in your horse, and understand them at a deeper level; beyond behaviour and labels.
This low-stress, logical method of dealing with horses seeks to take horses beyond the reflex of instinct, and educate horses how to think and act rather than re-act to the source of concern.

Linda Tellington-Jones, PhD (Hon) created Tellington TTouch® in 1983 to train and care for horses and other animals.
