Tellington TTouch® Training: Equipment for working with horses

Tellington TTouch goes back to Linda Tellington-Jones and combines bodywork with training. With us you will find the neck ring, reins, wand and Lindel.

Tellington TTouch® Training: a method with a history

The method goes back to Linda Tellington-Jones. In the 1970s she first developed her work for horses, at that time under the name TTEAM. When she extended it to pets, the name Tellington TTouch Training was born. Linda Tellington-Jones has published 23 books on the subject, which have appeared in 15 languages. There are Tellington centres in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Canada, the United Kingdom and the USA, among others, and the umbrella organisation is based in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Tellington TTouch® Training at Agrarzone

Here you will find the equipment that plays a part in the method. The neck ring lets you ride without a headpiece, the LTJ balance rein supports you in exercises for balance and self-carriage, and the Linda Tellington-Jones wand acts as an extension of your arm during groundwork. If you want to ride bitless, choose the Lindel. That way you can put the exercises from a course or a book into practice straight away at the yard.

Frequently asked questions

Can I ride with a neck ring without any experience?
It is best to start in a fenced arena and keep your usual bridle on as a safety backup at first. That way you and your horse can get used to the new way of communicating step by step.

What is a Lindel?
The Lindel is a bitless bridle that works via the noseband. It suits horses that should not or will not wear a bit, and it helps when working on fine communication.
