Monty Roberts (born May 14, 1935) is the American horse trainer who promotes his techniques of natural horsemanship through JoinUp® International, founded in 1997 and named after the core concept of his training method. Roberts believes that horses use a nonverbal language, which he terms "Equus," and that humans can use this language to communicate with horses. In order to share his knowledge of horsemanship, Roberts has authored a number of books including an original bestseller, The Man Who Listens to Horses, and regularly tours with live demonstrations worldwide. Roberts also founded the Monty Roberts International Learning Center to teach his methods in Solvang, California, and an "online university" to promote his ideas.
