Tension and anxiety or over excitation can adversely affect a mare’s receptivity or a stallion’s ability to breed successfully. By using TTEAM, you will find an overall improvement in both attitude and performance. This video presents a new approach to the handling of mares and stallions. It is not about breeding techniques, but rather a mental and physical training which will make the breeding process safer for horses and handlers. The improvement is apparent as Linda teaches these methods while working with several difficult stallions and a young mare that kicks and squeals when handled around the hindquarters. Linda shows how you can alleviate some of the discomfort of your pregnant mare and help prepare her for foaling while creating a special relationship with the unborn offspring. These TTEAM methods, based on Linda’s extensive background in handling and training stallions and mares for breeding and performance can also make a difference in your breeding program.

TTeam is a system of training which emphasizes the partnership between you and your horse. And by combining classical horsemanship with modern science, TTeam creates a new approach to learning. TTeam is based on the premise that the most resistance comes from tension or pain in the horse's body. Using a combination of carefully developed bodywork, precise ground exercises and riding techniques, TTeam can improve your horse's ability and willingness to learn and perform. Developed by Linda Tellington-Jones, TTeam is now practiced on four continents and has been used to train Olympic horses in many countries.
