An
intensive workshop is a great way to experience Ken's unique,
hands-on approach to taming wild, frightened and/or aggressive birds in a
dynamic, comprehensive setting. You can participate as an observer -- or
sign up to get help with your “difficult” bird. The workshop will focus on
the issues of fear/aggression and socialization.
The number
of birds accepted is strictly limited; we encourage you to participate as an
observer. Those who do are frequently able to go home and begin handling a
bird that they previously could not. Time permitting, even those attending
without birds will get some hands-on. This serves two purposes; it provides
handling experience to those watching and helps the birds get some
socialization.
As Ken
works with each bird he explains in clear terms the fundamentals of his
uniquely effective taming methods. He demonstrates specific techniques he
created like "The Wall of Fear," "The Touch," "The Log Roll" and "The Ear
Swipe," all invaluable aids in helping to calm wild, frightened and
aggressive birds. He also illustrates how birds respond to subtle movements
and touches and demonstrates how to make huge strides in a minimum of time.
You will
observe Ken work with a variety of birds with different behavior issues and
see them make progress right before your eyes.. And what you learn can
change the way you handle birds… forever.
