Enhance love, respect & understanding
between you and your animal friends.
Gain new insights into who they really are
and share thoughts, ideas & feelings.

Anna is dedicated to raising consciousness toward and for animals.  Through intuitive guidance Anna will communicate directly with your animal friend. Talking to your companions and hearing what they have to say will empower them and can confirm what you've already been feeling and believing.

Anna Twinney
This is a rare opportunity to join Anna for an in-depth Animal Communication Week; while living in one of the most exciting and legendary environments of the American Old West.  Your chance to be immersed in some of the best and most diverse horseback riding the world has to offer.

In this supportive atmosphere you will learn to enhance the animal communication skills you already have (even if you don't know it!) and share in a fun and rewarding experience.  By learning to tap into and use your innate abilities, you will quickly discover how you too can converse with the animals.

Anna has worked around the country and around the world helping individuals to communicate and better understand their animal companions.  With Anna you will enjoy an interactive conversation with your animal friends, learning their perspectives on situations, behaviors, and life knowledge. Having the opportunity to find out what your animal companion's thoughts, feelings and attitudes are can greatly enhance your relationship and bring great joy and happiness into your life.

Learn to hear the whispers of the animals.

This clinic is geared toward all animal enthusiasts, guardians, caregivers, managers, amateurs and professionals alike.  It's designed for anyone who wants to increase their telepathic ability with all species.  During the week we will explore "live" communication sessions as well as long distance communication with many different species of the animal kingdom!
