About the teacher

Chris Adderson

Chris Adderson is the creator of Movement Language and the Patterns of Reciprocity™ framework—a communication system that teaches riders to speak their horse's natural language through movement, energy, and presence.

With over 40 years of experience in classical dressage, a Bachelor of Kinesiology from the University of Calgary, professional dance training, and extensive study of nervous system awareness, Chris brings a unique interdisciplinary perspective to horse-human communication.

Creator: Movement Language and Patterns of Reciprocity™ framework

Author: Going Beyond: Mastering Unspoken Connections

Founder: For The Horse programs and international community

Recognition: Shining World Compassion Award for horse rescue and welfare work

Chris's work bridges the wisdom of classical masters with contemporary neuroscience, creating a precise language for the embodied communication that horses understand naturally—and inviting riders to remember what they've always known but perhaps forgotten how to speak.
