Positioning

A "must know" for optimum training success
with alpacas and llamas

Stopping

To have your llama stop, move forward to that small space between the withers and the eye. This position halts the action for a brief moment.

Standing In Balance

As your llama stops, immediately drop back a step or two to position yourself just behind the withers. If you should remain in the "stop" position for too long, the llama will become uneasy and move. By immediately stepping back a few steps the moment the llama stops, both you and your llama should find yourselves in balance and standing in place until you give the next "signal".
