Hi,

I'm organising a one day workshop on TTouch for canines in South West Scotland.

The Tellington TTouch is a teaching method for dogs and other animals that incorporates bodywork, and ground exercises where appropriate to improve co-ordination, balance, and athletic ability whilst deepening further communication and understanding between the animal and its owner/carer. TTouch helps increase levels of self-confidence and self-control.
TTouch is widely used around the world by animal lovers and people who work with animals. It is not necessary to learn the whole TTouch approach to help the animals in your care. Learning just a few of the body TTouches by working with a trained Practitioner or attending a workshop can make a difference to an animal's life.

At this workshop you will be given a basic introduction to the various TTouch techniques - what it is and what it sets out to do, how to do the bodywork (hands on) and how to do groundwork (working with obstacles, body wraps, balance leash etc).

The cost for this one-day workshop is £35 per person with or without your own dog (including lunch and refreshments) and spectators are welcome to attend for £10 per person (including lunch and refreshments).

Please contact Kiersten Aram at Gorsebank for more details or to book your place on 01556 611634 or 07791 853402 or email on kierstenaram@hotmail.com

Gorsebank also has a relaxed and friendly livery yard offering all year turnout, new internal stabling, secure heated tack room, on farm riding, direct forest access and with our arena just being built and xc course coming soon is suitable for everyone from happy hackers to serious competition riders.

I have heard wonderful things about TTouch from my niece who jumps horses. I wish I could come for 2 reasons. The knowledge and I love Scotland. It is beautiful and the people are genuine and extremely nice.:) Any near there should go to the workshop. I was just discussing the need for more information that will enhance the quality of dogs in general, and working and athletic dogs specifically.

Just a quick note to say that we just have 3 participant places remaining on this workshop - and still plenty of spectator spots.

If you would like some more information, please email me on kierstenaram@hotmail.com

Thanks,

Kiersten
