Running + Habits · September cohort

You're in. Welcome to Running + Habits.

Your seat is confirmed and your full ATA membership access is now active. Three quick things to do before we start, then you can relax until kickoff.

Step one

Register for the live kickoff session

The kickoff is on Thursday 10 September (Friday 11 September NZ time). This is where Emelie walks through how the 13 weeks work and you meet the rest of the group. Register on Zoom now so it is in your calendar.

Step two

Find the course forum

All the course content and discussion happens in one private forum thread inside ATA. Weekly lessons, your check-ins, and Emelie’s coaching all live here.

Please allow up to 24 hours for your access to the course forum to be granted. You will get an email as soon as your access to the course content and forum has been added.

Once you are in, turn on email notifications for the forum so you never miss a lesson. There is a small checkbox in the forum settings that switches these on.

Step three

Set your ATA password (if you don't have an account already)

Because of how our checkout works, if you are a first-time user your account has been created without a password. Set one now so logging in is easy next time.

Already have an ATA account and just logged in? You are all set, nothing to do here.

The key dates

Live kickoff: Thursday 10 September US time (Friday 11 September NZ time)

Course starts: Monday 14 September

Live wrap up: Tuesday 8 December US time (Wednesday 9 December NZ time)

Exact session times and timezone conversion are on the Zoom registration page.

What to expect each week

Plan for roughly 30 minutes, 3 times a week for the physical habit, plus a little extra time if you want to be active in the forum discussions. Every week you get a new lesson from Emelie and one practical task.

Your ATA membershipYour payment includes full access to the entire Animal Training Academy membership through to December 2026: the learning archive with 200+ lessons, live monthly webinars, and the community forums. After the course, your account rolls over into our standard $43/month membership so staying in the community is seamless. Not for you? Cancel the rollover with one click in your profile at any point during the 13 weeks, and you keep full access until the final day.

Really glad you're here.

You are now part of a global community of thoughtful, compassionate animal trainers, and for the next 13 weeks the learner is you. If you ever feel lost or have questions, just email me directly at [email protected]. I am always happy to help.

Thanks,
Ryan Cartlidge
