Description
While following wild horse herds in Wyoming and Montana, independent researcher Kerry Thomas realized that what is inside the horse (what Thomas calls "emotional conformation") and not what is outside (how a horse is built, or his "physical conformation") is what governs herd dynamics. He determined that this was the basis for everything horsewhatever role a horse plays in a human environment, whatever his breed, sport, or "job", his emotional conformation dictates in large part his success or failure.
Focusing on this research Thomas identified a system of emotional profiling that enables him to determine a horse's performance tendencies, and then began to develop ways in which horses can be mentally conditioned toward a given goal. Already used by some of the leading racehorse training and breeding programs in the world, Thomas has now provided a book that explains this unique way of analyzing the psyche of the equine athlete for all horses, and particularly those in competitive careers where performance is a primary focus. It is Thomas' intention that his work will enable top equine athletes to perform their very best while living happy, contented lives.
