"Thank you for the support and energy you put into organizing these wonderful opportunities! So far the classes I have participated in seem seamless and very well organized. " Judy R.

   

"Well worth the money! I think in today's environment that statement means a lot. I came away knowing muh more then I did before. I love the fact we get detailed handouts to keep for review, and the fact we can relisten to the entire course again. This to me is one reasons I have been so very pleased about the training I have received at ASN. When I can take a training and come away with so much more knowledge then before, it is well worth it. Thank you again for the service and training you provide!" Toni K.

   

"The teleconferencing concept is the best of both worlds! You really do have the sense that you are present in a classroom, interacting with the instructor and your classmates, yet you're nice and comfy at home -no parking spaces to worry about, no traffic to deal with getting to or from class. I love the whole teleclass concept and am really impressed with the way it has been implemented!" Kathleen P.

   

"I was surprised (even listening to the first class) how well it replicated an in-person class experience." Patricia K.

   
Kathryn L.

"The reason I undertook this course after attending the introductory teleclass was because the handouts/materials and presentation were so informative and professional. My present course materials are of that same high quality. This is important to me because I want the most professional, informative, and inspirational materials to build the solid foundation of my communication practice. This is the only way I would choose to immerse myself in the art of animal communication." Kathryn L.

   

"I feel so grateful for having this experience with the teleclass series. It has enriched my life beyond my expectations.   I am so excited to continue this journey, and love the support from Animal Spirit Network and the incredible teachers who are so gifted, compassionate and loving." Mary C.

   

"Every time I take a course with ASN I learn so much! These courses all interweave with each other so well - thank you Carol and Kristin - it was extremely helpful to have this course!" Merry H.

   

"I remember Kristin saying in the first class that we would be different people by the end of these six weeks. I wasn't entirely sure what she meant, but now that it's over - it's true! The teleclass gave me the opportunity to finally try to communicate with animals, and with the positive support from the entire group and a safe haven to practice, I began to gain confidence in my ability to do this. As the weeks passed, I noticed how differently I was starting to look at, well, everything! All the animals, the entire world and our roles within it. I also feel more content with myself and my surroundings. There's a kind of inner glow, the same glow of love and peace that comes from an especially amazing connection with an animal that I am now able to carry with me and help me with day to day life. So, Thank You, to everyone involved!" Catherine A.

   

"I think that it is great that you are doing these classes! I really appreciate the opportunity to attend classes in this way, which I would not be able to travel to attend.  It is especially nice to have people from other parts of the country." Sondy K.

Thank you!" Lorie A.

   

"Thanks for making these teleclasses available! For those of us that can't get away, these opportunities are invaluable!" Liz K.

"The support that came from the other class members and instructor was extremely beneficial. The bonds and feelings of community that grew between us made it easier to believe in ourselves as we learned together. I loved reading the handouts each week. The additional materials provided from other communicators, and the reading lists, were extremely helpful, not to mention the exercises themselves, written in a clear, easy-to-follow manner." Catherine A.

   

"The organization, structure, skill of the teacher and attention to detail and quick response to 'trouble spots' is amazing!" Kathleen P.

   
Kathryn L.

"The reason I undertook this course after attending the introductory teleclass was because the handouts/materials and presentation were so informative and professional.

"I really enjoyed the class. It was loaded with wonderful information and I got a much broader understanding about the whales. Awesome! Full of compassion for the whales! Thank you so much!" Susan P.

   

"Teresa's knowledge and love for the Whales is totally heart opening and inspirational. Anyone who has any desire to connect with the Wise energy of the Whales must take this course to receive a well-rounded and intelligent experience. I felt that Teresa was very sensitive to what the participants were asking for. She made her gifts of animal communication very accessible and empowered all of us with clear directions and deep respect."Fawn C.

   

"Teresa has a fantastic ability to take thought-provoking topics and present them in a straightforward fashion. Her ability to mix humor into her presentation is outstanding! She paces content and delivers it at an appropriate level for all to understand. She responds well to questions posed. The content of this class unexpectedly touched my heart and, more importantly, jarred me into taking a proactive stand for whale conservation."Davidene T.

   

"Informative,exciting,beautiful and loving."Marti P.

   

"The workshop met expectations with regard to learning about the whales and their perspectives through communication and stories. It exceeded my expectations in acquiring a whale guide (Sadie) who has been conversing with me since the first night. What a blessing! Thank you, Teresa, for holding the space for us to connect so profoundly with the whales. I look forward to exploring my relationship with them more in depth. You've opened an important door for me."Judy R.

   

AC150

"This has been very enlightening!  The one-on-one approach with The Bridge course has been extremely helpful in understanding communication with animals on a deeper level.  Everything was well laid out, and I feel prepared to now attend the Level 2 group teleclass."Meredith H.

   

AC201

"I learned so much in an hours time it was unbelievable. This class answered questions that I've been concerned about for awhile. I was having a hard time incorporating AC into the canine training that I do, but Karla and Kristin really helped me to see how it can be done. I really felt very enlightened after this class and I felt very complete. Definitely an "aha" moment for me." Terra K.

   

"A great lesson on how to use flower essences, including positive aspects and affirmations." Ellen L.

   

"Wonderful information and very well presented." Barbara F., DVM

   

"This was my first coaching call and I think it was highly informative. I learned so much. The best $20 I've spent in a long time and can't wait to learn more at another class!" Sharon S.

   

"Thanks so much for making this all possible. Kristin asked great questions and was warm and accessible. I just want to keep learning and this is a great way to do it consistently!" Jeanie L.

   

"This was exactly what I needed. A wonderful connection to community." Sue K.

   

"It was supportive hearing others express the very same feelings that I occassionally have as well. Very helpful, friendly, and professional."

   

"I really enjoyed Mary Ann and her approach to animal communication. The class went very fast and it was filled with so much information taught in a way you didn't even know you were absorbing and learning. I left feeling very energized." Julie K.

   

"I thought it was well presented and would take another class with Dawn. I think she was excellent!" Sharon S.

   

"Dawn is an enthusiastic instructor. She gave really good information about pocket pets. She also shared lots of really great ideas to gain both experience and visibility in the community. It was inspiriing to hear how she was able to pull together a talk in less than 2 week, using her animal guides for help. I also realy liked her comment about how you want to be remembered as someone people remember as experiencing a good time. That is really sound and true."

   

"This was a wonderful class, and beyond my expectation. It is fun to discuss topics with others across the country. Kristin is a gifted teacher who inspires me in this work." Susan E.

   

"This ongoing course opportunity is a very informative hour, and I always learn alot. I enjoy having this time with like-minded people, and appreciate Kristin's enthusiasm of the topic being shared!" Sharon S.

   

"It was wonderful to connect with Dawn on the call not only because of the information, but energetically. I've got all her books and knew her from yahoogroups AC groups, but it was so nice to connect with her real time on the phone! I actually think this (shapeshifting) is a great way to tap into how an animal is feeling--and also as a healing method (e.g. to bring in feelings of peace and wellbeing and then shapeshift merging with an animal to bring those qualities to the animal, say before a vet visit...)" Sue T.

   

"I loved hearing Dawn's perspective. After reading the book, it was nice to hear her voice and be able to ask her some questions. Being able to ask the questions and have the AUTHOR answer them was wonderful!" Tracy H.

   

"There were lots of great ideas bounced around that I could take immediately into my practice. Lots of dialogue, lots of good information and a free flowing of ideas." Lois K.

   

"It was actually more than I expected, and I enjoyed Kate's instructional style." Kelly K.

   

"A great lesson on how to use flower essences, including positive aspects and affirmations." Ellen L.

   

"Lots of great information shared by a very enthusiastic instructor!"

   

"A very easy going sharing of information with several exercises for future use. It was not just an instructor giving dry information to a class. I got a very easy to use tool I can use over and over again to change beliefs that aren't working for me." Jenny S.

   

AC202

Ivonne"This course turned out to be so wonderful, supporting, encouraging!" I have met many instructors on different fields throughout my life, but Kristin has definitely been the best! The support received throughout these 8 weeks made me confident enough to start putting my dream of animal communication into action." Ivonne S.

   

"Thank you for this beautiful experience of spiritual growth and unfolding. And thanks to all of the animals, too! This class has been the most moving educational experience I've ever had, and I will always cherish it.  I am so grateful to have laid this solid foundation as I continue on my AC path." Harmony H.

   

"This class was an awesome learning experience." Christa T.

   

"Level 2 is literally life changing. It opens your mind and eyes to an entirely new (for me) dimension of animals on the planet. So much more than 'just talking' to the animals!" Kathleen

   

"The class was an awesome learning experience. The time in between each week was great so we could practice our assignments." Christa

   
Lorie

"Implementing and synthesizing the materials from this class into my life is going to alter my space, my head, my views and my entire life. My animals are happier. I am happier with them. We are interacting in a way that is so much more special and personal than we did before and this is getting better every day. I was very glad I decided to jump in and take this class!" Lorie A.

   

"Kristin was wonderful. Very encouraging. She was able to pull information out that you didn't even know was there. She helped you find a deeper connection." Julie K.

   

"The tools Kristin gave us have been amazing. I look forward daily to using them in my communications not only with animals but with Nature. What I receive from the nature spirits and animals around me continues to help my spiritual growth, and I am very grateful every day. Kristin was incredibly supportive of our journey as a class." Anuradhika R.

   

"This class taught me to go deeper and trust the communication I receive, which helps me know what comes from me and from my animals." Hillary S.

"I am grateful for an understanding and talented teacher, along with a most wonderfully supportive and active group of classmates in which to share and practice our skills." Lois K.

   

"Thank you so much. Animal Communication is so much more than communicating. I have learned so much and need to learn so much more. Thank you for assisting me in my journey." Melody

   

"This Level 2 teleclass was a wonderful experience, and I cannot speak highly enough about Kristin. Her enthusiasm for Animal Communication and her care for her students certainly shines through. I look forward to learning more from her and the other students in the future. "

"This class will make you believe not only in yourself, but in the many wonders that surround us. I know that with continued practice and support of the animals I can reach my goals and achieve my dreams." Terra K.

   

AC210

"Karla was an excellent speaker. She offered not only practical, knowledgeable information but also personal experiences." Pat B.

   

"This is a good class and an inspiration to continue or consider doing missing animal work." Michelle B.

"I attended one of Tim's workshops and it was wonderful. He is a very genuine person who offers great insight into animal behavior and emotions. I would recommend him to any pet owner looking to enhance their relationship with their pet." Melissa W. - Orlando, Florida

   

"I have had the honor of Tim visiting my home and communicating with my pets one on one. I have also participated in an amazing animal communication workshop hosted by Tim. I have seen remarkable results from both his visits with my cats as well as in myself and my own gift. " Sabrina W. - Dahlonega, Georgia

   

"I utilized Tim's services when my beloved pet passed away. He was extremely genuine, caring & provided me with much comfort regarding her passing.

AC301

"Great handouts, and the class presentation was right on. Very helpful comments and explanations. The instructors are engaging, supportive, and knowledgeable." DJ S.

AC302

"The cases have been an incredible experience, and a tremendous sources of growth. It is amazing what can be learned from each one, when you listen to the animals from a position of humility and love." Donna G.

   

AC402

"This class was a wonderful experience of discovery, heightened understanding, and most of all purifying connection and presence. This class most definitely improved the skills already worked on in the previous levels, as well as went so much deeper into the "connection" and one's interpertation of that connection." Donna G.

   

"Kristin knew so much about this experience and what we all needed.  We learned about ourselves, our emotions and judgements, and how this would effect our work in animal communication.  After it is over there is a feeling of what do I do with this new life now.  It changes how you look at everything." Mary S.

   

"I adore Kristin and everything that she knows and her way of being and teaching.  She has a real gift and deep knowledge and commitment.  Thank you for a wonderful experience!" Barbara N.

   

AC603

"Having the opportunity to participate as an apprentice in the Animal Communication Class was a wonderful experience! I learned the subtleties of guiding the students to a place of self confidence in communicating with animals. Learning to work with the animals and let them determine the direction of the interaction between the students and the animals was invaluable." Linda E.

   

"Apprenticing with Kristin Thompson to teach the Level I Basic Animal Communication Course was an integral part of my growth both as an animal communicator and as a teacher of animal communication. Teaching my first course was a wonderful experience that I will never forget. Kristin provided the necessary support and tools that I needed to be able to teach this course to my own students. My confidence in my ability to convey the course material increased greatly after beginning my apprenticeship. I believe that apprenticing with Kristin would be a valuable experience for any teacher of animal communication that I would highly recommend!" Anne A.

   

SH101

"This is a good intro to the Shamanic views and I am glad I took it." Julie K.

   

"This was my first class. I was in awe of the topic." Marie

   

"The course met all my expectations & more. It was very well presented with an abundance of knowledge. The journeying session was very clear to do & the drumming was helpful. Thank you, it was all awesome!" Joanne

   

"This is a very informative class and Carla is very passionate and enthusiastic about teaching." Terra K.

   

SH102

"That the class prepares one very well step-by-step to create a strong base for the infinite knowledge of Shamanic journeying (because one really doesn't know what to expect when starting out)."

   

"Great experience. It was fun and informative. Although it was a beginning class, it was still challenging and interesting.  While this course covers all the basic information, it progresses rapidly and intuitively. Carla presents a wide range of information, which is limited only by your ability to assimilate it." Christa M.

   

"I highly recommend this teleclass. I would also recommend taking an in-person class with Carla, if possible."

   

"This class exceeded my expectations. It was pretty life altering. I found it moving to actually experience my power animal bears and Raven spirit and not just intellectually know I "had" power animals and what they were and a "meaning" for them but get to know them as real beings with personalities. Carla is a wonderful and kind spiritual teacher and refreshingly down to earth as well as wise." Sue T.

   

"This class was packed with far more information and experience than I expected. It was really personally transforming, and put me firmly on the path of shamanism. The type of exercises (both in class and homework) that Carla introduced me to were really great experiences that I can continue with outside of this class. She gave us great tools to move forward with and continue to learn. Many thanks to Carla (and the spirits) for having the wisdom to make this class so "interactive" with the spirits." Patrice S.

   

"This class went well beyond what I expected to learn.  It is changing my life, healing and enabling me into spaces and realms I never imagined existed. Carla and the material she presents are exceptional.  Carla is real, and down to earth, and flexible and quick to respond in the healthiest, most beneficial way that meets the students' needs." Ericka C.

   

SH105

"I found the class to be very enlightening. It was easy to understand and easy to learn. I was surprised at how quickly I was able to reach places and worlds I thought were only for others. I'm excited to continue to go deeper as I think shamanism is a most valuable way to reach spirit guides, spirit teachers, and angels of every kind. Carla is very knowledgable and patient. Every question was answered in a way that all could understand. I could only hope to reach the level of connection she has with this incredible gift." Bonnie S.

   

"Taking Carla's class was and continues to be a great gift in my life. It is a wonderful treat to be guided by Carla, who is extremely knowledgeable, compassionate, and always able to answer my questions. She brings a sweet sense of humor along for the journey, also! Thank you, Carla, for introducing (or, as it feels, re-introducing) me to the way of the Shamans, which I was searching for so long. I am looking forward to the next steps or flights along this path!" Janey D.

   

"This course more than fullfilled my expectations! The information, sharing and personal experiences were much more than I had expected. It is an overview, review, preparation for further study, and/or taste of what can be to come. I am really shocked at the progress I made in three short weeks." Beth H.

   

Ivonne"Very personal and individual insights, excellent motivation and leading qualities. It got me really started on my personal journey in the shamanic ways. I recommend this class to everyone interested in understanding what shamanic journeying is about." Ivonne S.

   

"I enjoy very much Carla's blend of extensive learning experience, clarity, and sense of humor. I feel like she really wants us to understand and get it. I haven't always felt like that with other teachers or guides. This experience will help you grow exponentially!" Janey L

   

"Thank you, Carla, for your help! This is so inspiring and I love it. It has opened up a whole new world for me. Can't wait to keep going with this work, and will be in the Level 1 teleclass through ASN in September. I'm looking forward to session three of this On Demand class, and next going to the Upper World." Mary C.

   

SH114

"Larry gave a very clear, well-thought-out overview. The material covered was fascinating and I learned more than I would have thought possible in an hour and a half. I really enjoyed learning the breathing technique for building mana, and the exercise for redistributing responsibility to the upper and lower selves. I think both are tremendously helpful and so easy to do!" Marya G.

   

SH201

"This was empowering and inspiring.  I enjoyed the informal presentation which made it more like a chat between friends than a lesson.  Many thanks for the opportunity!

Karen C.
   

"I loved every aspect of this call! The stories, the tangents, the community!"

   

"Excellent coaching call with lots of information. It helped me a lot to overcome the problem of going deeper in the journey. Carla is so professional, and the best at what she does!"

Mary C.
   

"I signed up more out of curiousity than anything else and got far more encouragement than I'd expected. Carla's familiarity with the subject is so refreshing.  It was a pleasure to hear someone matter-of-factly discussing the kind of experiences that so many people around me consider to be to woo-woo, to be real. I needed that validation!"

Karen C.
   

"A great time for Q&A about a specific area of shamanic study. I found that I had a lot of questions, and Carla answered them thoroughly."

Harmony H.
   

"To expand your knowledge of intrusions, you must take this class with Carla. Carla has a special personality which makes learning fun. I find that she is able to explain things so that I can understand them easily. She is very gifted and knowledgeable, and helps us apply that knowledge to our everyday lives."

Mary C.
   

SH202

"I'm so excited to be taking the classes you offer through ASN. It is truly a blessing to have access to teachers who have integrity, knowledge, and humility. Thank you, Carol, for putting these programs together. I would encourage anyone who feels called to the sacred world of shamanism to take Carla Meeske's course. I am honored and humbled by her teachings and by her respect for our Spirit Guides, Teachers and Power Animals. This is by far the best course I have ever taken (and believe me, I have been searching for a long time)." Brenda S.

   

"Carla is the best. Not only does she know her stuff, but she clearly puts a lot of effort into designing the curriculum.   I love that each class teaches specific skills and builds on what came before.  Carla is knowledgeable, experienced and an excellent instructor. She makes us work!  You'll definitely come out of this class with skills and knowledge."

Kevin S.

   

SH302

"I was amazed at what we were able to do in a teleclass - the Spirit Canoe work in particular." Dawn W.

   

"It was a really cool class because it was a group of similarly focused women, very safe space, very experiential. We learn as much from each other as from Carla and learn there are different ways and no "wrong" way to experience Spirit." Sue T.

   

"I learned so much in this class! The work we did was awesome. I thought Carla did a great job of teaching it. Carla was able to help each of us with our questions and gave us lots of new insights." Lyn B.

   

"I was concerned that this class would not live up to my expectations since I like the in-person classes better, but I was not disappointed with Carla's class. I think it was excellent." Carol M.

   

GS101

"This was an amazing experience, and beyond my expectations.
