Just what IS Animal Communication?

Wynter Worsthorne explains how this is a skill that anyone can learn!


Can you really talk with the Animals?

The answer is YES! 

Have you ever felt that your dog, cat or other animal friend knows exactly what you are thinking?

Have you always wanted to understand what they are trying to tell you? 

Were you told, as a child, that “you can’t talk with animals – they wouldn’t understand”?

AnimalTalk Africa online Academy is here to dissolve the myth that it is impossible to communicate intuitively with other species. It has been proven many times, both scientifically and otherwise, that we CAN communicate with the animals. These courses are designed to help you to do exactly that. 

These courses are for you if you want to:

  • Deepen your relationship with all animals and nature

  • Speak with and listen to your animal companions and understand their needs

  • Get insight into behavioral issues and find solutions

  • Assist with the physical health of your animal friends by understanding their issues

  • Help your animal friends when it is time for them to transition

  • Communicate with all animals over any distance

  • Learn how to live in harmony with nature

What others are saying

This course opened a new world to me

Pilu Hermosilla

This course is fantastic. It opens a complete new world, and it is the most beautiful. I took the course because I had sensed messages from animals and I was very happy to find there was a possibility for everyone to develop some skills. I am still quite incredulous about my ability to get the right info from the animals I have tried to connect with –but now I believe I can connect, I have seen that with my own dogs! The assignments really test our skills and makes us go the extra mile.

Thank you for making this world better!

Borbala Molnar

Dear Wynter, Thank you for making this world better by offering this course! Thank you for all your guidance, support, and understanding. The content of your course is more interesting and enriching than any other studies I've done so far. Your course has changed my life and made me a better person. I feel I can contribute to the "light" of this world, because you have shown me how to understand animals, nature, and myself. I have learned how to meditate and now I'm enjoying the benefits of re-connecting to the universe. People around me also flagged a noticeable change in my behaviour. Quoting someone, I have transitioned from a "neurotic geek to a relaxed, composed and kinder individual" I am thankful that my path was guided to your Course, where you enlighten people and produce balanced individuals who are able to contribute to a better world.

Your course has given me so much clarity about my life path

Hello Wynter, thank you again for all your support throughout the course. I am so grateful for and excited about the feedback you’ve given me! I will make sure to use your advice when I continue to practice. I truly cannot comprehend how much this course has resonated with me. It has given me so much clarity about my life path which I have never had before. It has profoundly impacted my life and I look forward to furthering my studies soon!

This course gave me inner calm and strength

Anthea Myburgh

“Life still presents its challenges, but I am finding doing this work is giving me an inner calm and strength I do not recall having before. So thank you for helping to open up a new world for me.”

No matter what the future holds, this has truly changed my life!

Lelani Reichart

I struggle to work in groups and was absolutely elated to find a correspondence course available that I could explore on my own. Little did I know how much this course would teach me, touch me, challenge me, stretch me and open me. If you work the course and open your heart, the course will work for you. When you stumble, Wynter will help. Ultimately, this for me is about finding the courage to face every emotion to its fullest extent. No matter what the future holds, this has truly changed my life!”

The work of animal communication is a true gift!

Maya Keidar

“I feel it is such a gift of true hope the work of animal communication, and of being able to meet with the natural world on a deeper level and share our life here.”

  • If I have attended a live introduction workshop can I jump to the intermediate course?

    A live 'weekend' introduction workshop with Wynter or any other animal communicator teacher is not sufficient to qualify you to sign up for the Intermediate course.

  • Can I sign up for the practitioner course if I have been studying with another animal communication teacher?

    Wynter prefers you to do the training for the Practitioner course by starting from the Introduction Course and then on to the Intermediate Course before signing up for the Practitioner Course. The courses are extremely thorough and cover information that many other teachers do not. Doing each course in sequence prepares you thoroughly for becoming a professional and ethical animal communicator, in Alignment with the AnimalTalk Africa ethos.
