CAMELIDynamics is the result of Marty McGee Bennetts 40 years of experience with camelids. It is a collection of methods that represent the most positive, least intrusive techniques for training and managing camelids. Marty is one of only a hand full of Instructors certified by Linda Tellington-Jones and Robyn Hood two of the most respected animal educators in the world today.
Martys methods incorporate elements of TTouch including the innovative ground exercises that teach both animals and their handlers understanding and teamwork. CAMELIDynamics is an approach to training and managing llamas and alpacas that teaches the handler to use an understanding of behavior, balance and leverage to set the stage for cooperation instead of relying on restraint and force.
CAMELIDynamics is a set of skills that, once learned, make EVERY animal easier to work with. Whether an alpaca or llama plants his feet and refuses to come forward, resists wearing a halter or wont stand for toenail trimming Camelidynamics offers sane, scientifically sound answers that anyone can learn and use safely.
Camelidynamics will show you:
- How to teach young animals to lead without drama.
- Be more successful in the show ring
- Set up your farm in a way that will eliminate handling frustration and save you time.
The video below illustrates one of Marty’s most important techniques-making contact with an animal using the wand and rope. This allows the handler to create a connection from a distance and gradually introduce human proximity- a game changer for animals that are difficult to catch and are frightened of humans.
