" A horse lives by the laws of their nature. Where they fit in to the herd, how they interpret their world, how they learn, how they're coached, how they
ultimately perform, is governed by the rules of that nature; it is wise to make an effort, to understand it." ~ Kerry M Thomas
Sensory Soundness Map
Sensory Soundness Map
The sensory system is more than just the physical senses identifying stimulus in the environment, it is the horses’ psyche managing the interpretive process. A “sensory sound” horse has the capacity to identify, interpret and respond purposely in a controlled manner. In equine sports, sensory efficiency is the leading edge of performance ability. Optimizing physical talent hinges upon psychological ability; like a blocker in football, the sensory system clears the space for the horse to move through.
The THT Bloodstock Sensory Soundness Map is a unique diagram of ideal sensory soundness and efficiency, representing a visual representation of the communicative relationship between horse and environment. Complete with descriptions from the fascinating world of herd dynamics, this diagram will help you better understand the horse by offering you a window into the unseen world of herd dynamics. Where we wish to better understand the horse, we must take our view, from the hoof.
This beautiful wall-art styled poster was designed to be as informative as it is appealing. Having come to fruition after many years of herd dynamic study, it is being offered in heavy matte paper, sized 24”X18”, ideal for framing.
“Sensory Soundness; the fluent intersection between corporeal and cognitive senses, connecting the physical world with the emotional horse.” Kerry M Thomas

Horse Profiling by Kerry Thomas
published 2012
"The Thomas Herding Technique is thoroughly explained in this book that helps trainers of top equine athletes get them to perform their very best while living happy, contented lives. While following wild horse herds in Wyoming and Montana, independent researcher Kerry Thomas realized that what is inside the horse (emotional conformation) and not what is outside (how a horse is built, or its physical conformation) is what governs herd dynamics. He determined that this was the basis for everything horse: whatever role a horse plays in a human environment-whatever breed, sport, or job-the emotional conformation dictates, in large part, success or failure. Thomas identified a system of emotional profiling-the Thomas Herding Technique-that enables him to determine a horse's performance tendencies, and then began to develop ways in which horses can be mentally conditioned toward a given goal. The technique is already used by some leading racehorse training and breeding programs in the world, and this book explains this unique way of analyzing the psyche of the equine athlete for all horses, and particularly those in competitive careers where performance is a primary focus"--
