I am seldom really, really amazed, but I just completed the Parelli Horsenality/Humanality Match report on parelli.com and, with over 70 pages of incredibly accurate results, was truly blown away.

I was so impressed with the accuracy and in depth thoroughness of the Humanality report that I am even recommending that my non-horsey friends complete just that part for themselves. Dr. Patrick Handley is a psychologist specializing in human behavior. Much of his life’s work has become the foundation of the Horsenality profile that has revolutionized the way humans read and interact with horses and set the Parelli Natural Horsemanship program so far apart and ahead of any other horse development program in the world.

Reading my Humanality report was like reading a book about myself written by someone who knows me better than I know myself. It was more than spot on. It described not only my behaviors, but the feelings behind them, how I would react and respond to other Humanalities and what inherent strengths and weaknesses were endemic to people that shared these traits.

The Horsenality portion was equally thorough and precise. As professional horsemen, what often can create trust and credibility with new horse people is the expert’s ability to very quickly describe what kinds of behaviors a horse is likely displaying, what, when where and why he tends to do what he does and what he’s about to do right now. Well the Horsenality profile did that to a T without every laying eyes on my horse.

Finally, what we all got into Parelli for in the first place, The Match Profile. So you know about you and you know about your horse, but are you a match? The answer is…..you can be! When you thoroughly understand your horse’s behavior, whether it’s coming from fear or dominance, introversion or extroversion and its intensity level, and you actually now understand the emotions that they are likely to create in you, which natural responses you have that will be helpful and which won’t, you can begin to craft a plan. The Match Profile will suggest all sorts of games, patterns and ideas to cement your and your horse’s bond while being positive, progressive and natural along with very comprehensive lists of “Do’s and Don’ts”.

Finally, ready to get blown away again? This type of in depth, thorough analysis of you and your horse could easily run into the many hundreds or even thousands of dollars if Linda Parelli and Dr. Patrick Handley were to provide this service for you directly, but because of the system they’ve developed over recent years, for Parelli Connect members, the entire 3 part package is only $99!!! Just think, for the cost of a 90 minute lesson with a professional, you can access over 70 pages of in depth, personalized information to take your relationship to levels you’d never dreamed possible.
