Camelidynamics Practitioner Program

Llamas and alpacas have exploded in popularity around the world resulting in a tremendous need for education. The Camelidynamics Guild was formed to meet this growing need for instruction and resources for the camelid owner or handler who wants to learn and apply the concepts and techniques of Camelidynamics.

The Practitioner Program is the branch of the Guild that trains, supports and certifies those who want to teach the Camelidynamics approach to others. There are four levels of certification in the Practitioner Program:

Apprentice Practitioner (AP)
Progressing toward the qualifications required to become a Practitioner

Practitioner (P)
Certified to teach private and semi private lessons (groups of no more than 5)

Practitioner1 (P1)
Certified to teach private and semi private lessons and 1-day Intro Clinics (up to 15 people)

Practitioner2 (P2)
Certified to teach private and semi private lessons, 1-day Intro Clinics, and 2-day Basics Clinics (up to 15 people)

Enlist a Practitioner for Hands-On Learning

Learning to handle and train animals is like any other physical activity. It requires not only practice but practice with intention. To be successful, you must participate in an on-going educational program. In addition to the Camelidynamics Clinics taught by founder Marty McGee Bennett, more and more opportunities are available from private to small group lessons, Free Workshops to 2-day Basics Clinics.

Practitioners can lead the way to more efficient handling that is safe, fun, kind and respectful. All certified individuals have graduated from a course of study and are personally endorsed by Marty McGee Bennett.* Visit our Practitioner Page for a list of certified Practitioners in your area.
