KELLI INGLIS | Animal Training Business Owner
I’ve been a member for nearly a year now and it was such a good decision. Ryan is a fantastic mentor, the podcasts are inspiring, the forums are incredibly helpful and it’s just such a good way to meet and connect with other trainers to give and receive such great advice.
I’m the founder of Animal Training Academy. Since 2007, I’ve been working as a professional animal trainer in such places as New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and the US. I’ve trained teams, developed training programs, and I’ve even spoken at international conferences on animal behaviour.
In Animal Training Academy, I’m charged with connecting hundreds of animal behavior & training enthusiasts with a large (and growing) library of lessons and tutorials delivered by renowned animal experts.
I’m so excited to bring together such a wonderfully supportive community of animal training professionals and enthusiasts, and I’m looking forward to having the opportunity to help you through your journey in animal training.
Introducing…

I am learning so much, am inspired by the podcasts, and have achieved training goals with my animals that I didn’t think possible. The guidance that I’ve received from Ryan is second to none, and the online community of members is refreshingly positive and supportive.

Positive reinforcement works with all species. Animals learn via the consequences of their behaviors and repeat the behaviors that help get them what that want and decrease the behaviors that don’t. This is the essence of reinforcement (and punishment). Consequently, there’s no limit to the species that may be included in the content on ATA and consequently you will see a very large diversity of species during your membership.
The price of the course is currently set in (United States Dollars) USD. Here is a link for you which will take you to a currency converter tool www.xe.com/currencyconverter. Also, please check with your bank for other fees involved.
There’s an old saying about there being two ways to train a donkey, use a carrot or a stick. Basically, use positive reinforcement (i.e the carrot) or positive punishment (i.e the stick). Science can teach us that both these techniques can work. However, science doesn’t always teach us what techniques we “should” use. When Training our animals, results aren’t enough. We have to teach our animals that their behavior matters. Positive reinforcement is the best way I know to do this. Positive reinforcement helps empower both us and our animals helping to build a trusting relationship. It is the most ethical and best practice method for modifying behavior.
