About Goat Academy by Felix Prehn

Written by the company

After working as a lawyer and an investment banker at one of the biggest law firms and banks in London, Hong Kong, Felix Prehn got tired of the aimless corporate grind that forced him to prioritise his work over his health and relationships.

So Felix Prehn turned to running his own business, but even still he was a glorified employee who had to show up in order to get paid. He turned to trading when he was hospitalised because of a back injury that came from chronic stress and overwork, but the worst part was that it would’ve cost $50,000 to operate on… Money he didn’t have at the time. At that point, his income was completely cut off because he couldn’t punch in the hours to get paid, yet his bills continued to climb.

Having no choice, Felix used his network and experience as an investment banker to learn how to trade from his hospital bed so he could at least make a side income to pay his bills. Before he knew it, within 10 months he had completely replaced his business income (and his previous corporate salary) with the income that came from his trades. So instead of having to wake up early, clock in, and get paid based on the amount of hours he worked… Felix was finally able to wake up feeling like every day was a weekend, have full control of his schedule, and make a comfortable income working a fraction of the hours he did as a lawyer and banker.

In 2020, Felix and his adopted Golden Retriever, Winston, started a YouTube channel called Felix and Friends to educate people struggling because of job loss, hour cuts, and income losses because of the pandemic to create an extra stream of income through trading for a few hours a week

Since then, he’s grown the channel to over 100,000 subscribers and has taught over 9000 students inside of GOAT Academy with his team of ex investment bankers how they can create more freedom, provide better for their families, and live life on their terms by replacing their 40-60 hour work weeks as corporate employees for becoming their own boss and “working” part time hours.

Today, Felix aims to provide real financial education that schools and universities have never provided to over 1 million people so they can stop getting taken advantage of by the corporate and banking systems, and instead, take back control of their time and finances to become better sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, friends, and community leaders.

The program has transformed my understanding

The training and mentoring program has transformed my financial management and really helped me move on my understanding. The material and classes are well thought out. The coaches are really friendly and talented at getting you to learn to trade for yourself. I came into the program hoping to achieve growth of 15% a year to help manage my assets for the future and thanks to the training I have managed to grow 30% in 6 months.

Simon, this genuinely made my day to read. Seeing someone come in with a clear goal, commit to the process and then exceed it so significantly is exactly why I built the Academy in the first place.

Going from a sensible 15 percent annual target to achieving 30 percent in six months is no small feat and it speaks volumes about the work you have put in, not just the material itself. I am especially glad to hear the coaching and classes helped you truly understand what you are doing rather than simply following along. That confidence and clarity is where real, sustainable progress comes from.

Thank you for trusting us with your journey and for taking the time to share this. Keep going and keep building on what you have started.

Warm regards,

Financial freedom

I Like it very much, i am not a beginner, i have taken other course as well, I liked Felis's personality. He teaches how Wall street thinks and strategizes. I paid good money, i made that back within two months or less. Many aha moments for me. No matter our level of skill, we are always learning. I find it mentally stimulating.

Thank you for sharing this and for such an honest perspective Duane, I really appreciate hearing this from someone who already had experience and had taken other courses. Creating those aha moments and helping people see how institutional thinking actually works is exactly the intention.

You are spot on that no matter the level, there is always more to learn and that's exactly how we built the Academy. I am glad you found it mentally stimulating and practical at the same time.

We wish you continued clarity and progress as you keep building.

All the best,

Great Coaching and a Well Structured Program

Happy graduate of the Goat Academy and very pleased that my targets for joining have been achieved. I am now much more confident and have a stronger understanding and structured approach to trading and investing utilizing correct risk management as part of the process. The content and videos are very good but the best part is the one-on-one coaching sessions. All the coaches take time to work with you and are extremely constructive and supportive in helping you build up your confidence and understanding. Course is evolving and I could see several improvement introduced whilst attending but the most important thing is you need to push yourself to learn, communicate and get the most value from the course as it is not a passive program. Thanks to Hannah for her support and guidance and the coaches (extra thanks to Elliot, Andrew, Agustin and Dominic).

Thank you for such a thoughtful and well balanced review Chris. I am really pleased to hear you achieved the goals you joined with and that you are leaving with more confidence, structure and a strong approach to risk management. That is exactly what we want every graduate to take away.

You are absolutely right that the Academy works best when students engage, ask questions and lean into the coaching and it is great to hear the one to one sessions played such a big role for you.

I will also be sure to pass your kind words on to Hannah, Elliot, Andrew, Agustin and Dominic.

Wishing you continued success as you move forward and apply everything you have built.

IT'S WORTH IT!

This program is set up in a very clear and concise way that gives you a roadmap to success. the coaches are very knowledgable and were always ready to help out in the chat when I had a simple question or required help in anything that didn't require a big lesson. Also the booked one on one calls were amazing as I got to learn how to read the market first and foremost then work my way towards stock selection and execution. As time moved on my setups became clear and my risk/reward improved greatly. I'm a very stubborn and high-strung guy but even I have learned the patience that is required to play the greatest game there is.
my wins are 4x bigger than my losses and my batting Avg over the last 2 months is an unreal .875 with my largest winner over 90%
I also learned options here at the Acadamy and im happy to report that I've had quite a few wins over 200% and have a few contracts still in play that I'm Bullish on. I was a little worried about the tuition but...
IT'S WORTH IT!

Thank you for taking the time to write such a thoughtful and detailed review Dave. It genuinely means a lot to read how the structure, coaching and gradual process helped you build clarity, patience and confidence over time. That progression from understanding the market first, through to execution and risk management, is exactly how we want students to develop.

I actually read your review out loud to Winston earlier and he barked in full approval which I am choosing to take as high praise.

You are a great example of what happens when someone commits to the process, asks questions, uses the coaching properly and allows the edge to compound. I am really pleased to hear how your risk reward and consistency have evolved, especially across both stocks and options.

Thank you again for trusting us with your journey and for sharing your experience so openly. Wishing you continued success and many calm, well managed trades ahead.

All the best,
Felix & Winston

Felix teaches how to fish not just gives you a sandwhich.

Felix, the director of the goat academy, has developed the best all-around course for achieving financial success. First and most important, his motivation originates from a sincere desire to help people succeed. Read his story to understand. I personally have achieved much. He gives a great deal of his advice for free. The course is constantly growing and increasing in its scope. The mentors give daily classes that, along with the course material, justify the cost. Thank you, Felix. It is rare for someone in your position to put themselves out to help others survive in our financial jungle.

Thank you for such a thoughtful and generous review Andre. I really appreciate you taking the time to share this. Teaching people how to think, plan and make decisions for themselves rather than handing out shortcuts is exactly what the Academy is built around so it means a lot to hear that message landed.

I am glad you recognised the depth of the programme and the daily live sessions with our coaching team. We have coaches ranging from portfolio building and risk management specialists through to senior professionals who have spent decades trading and managing capital at the highest level. That ongoing access, combined with constantly expanding material is what helps students build real confidence over time.

It has been great having you in the community and I wish you continued success as you keep applying what you have learned.

All the best and continued success!

Mark and Troy bring decades of real market and institutional experience and their focus on structure, risk and decision making helps students build skills that last well beyond the early stages.

Honest & Helpful

I've been in the market since my university years in the mid 1980's. I have to say after trying and using various subscriptions for ideas Felix really knows his stuff as an ex-investment banker. I'm a Certified Public Accountant (USA) & Chartered Accountant (UK). I can read financials inside out, but investing is way more than that. It is geopolitical, innovation, internal management direction and other scenarios rolled into one and Felix Prehn exposes this in a somewhat easy to follow analysis.

Goat Academy practices risk management. I cannot stand mentors perpetuating the asinine buy & holding your stocks no matter what philosophy (maybe, maybe in a new disruptor business like quantum computers as I had QBTS & RGTI 3 years as sat on my shares that cost me $0.65 or NFLX as I had since 2006). Disney after covid or AT&T cut dividend get out these stocks. In fact they are still not back at their price at covids end for DIS $230 or T pre dividend cut $33.

Thank you for your review Kerry. It goes to show even someone with your experience in the markets, there's still much to learn. I'm glad the break down and market structure has been useful for you and that our focus on risk management resonates with your approach as well.

One thing I always want students to feel is that they have access to genuine expertise. Across the Academy, as you've seen you can learn directly from former Wall Street traders, investment bankers, derivatives specialists, portfolio managers and university lecturers who bring decades of institutional experience into every session in a way that suits everyone!

They each bring a slightly different lens whether that is deep fundamental analysis, macro strategy work, options structures or technical precision which gives members a real understanding how to manage both risk and opportunity in changing markets.

It has been a pleasure having you in the community and I appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective in such detail.

As always, wishing you continued success in the markets.

I started off watching Felix and…

I started off watching Felix and Friends goat academy videos over the course of a couple months and decided to give the program a try. I have been working with the mentors in the Goat Academy program for over a month now and have noticed great progress with refining my trading ideas and building consistency in the markets.

If you are looking for amazing mentors who can provide valuable insight and help with navigating any market environment, I would give Goat Academy a try. Be sure to discuss your investment/trading goals with their representative so that they can best tailor your time in the program to your individual needs. Also shout out to Oliver who helped me get set up and connected with the program!

Felix's Goat Academy Program: A True Game-Changer

Felix's Goat Academy Program is a true game-changer for anyone ready to take charge of their financial future. The team of coaches is genuinely committed to your success—they're always supportive, responsive, and ready to guide you through any question, no matter how big or small. Felix, the heart and soul of the Academy, brings a brilliant mix of humor and motivation while remaining deeply dedicated to helping every member succeed.

The course itself is thoughtfully structured, with clear lessons, practical quizzes, and an accountability system that ensures you keep making progress. What truly stands out is how the team consistently checks in and offers encouragement. You feel seen, heard, and championed every step of the way.

Felix’s approach isn’t just about tips or shortcuts—he’s the king of teaching you how to “fish” in the financial world, so you develop long-lasting, practical skills. Learning how to buy and sell confidently, without getting lost in hope or uncertainty, has been invaluable. I’ll never forget his phrase: “Hope is not a plan.”

I’m now an Alumni, applying everything I learned with gratitude for this supportive community. Felix and his amazing team—including Winston and the team of Kitties. Go Winston!!—truly care about every person who joins. If you’re considering signing up, don’t hesitate. This is an investment in yourself that you’ll be thankful for.

Wishing Felix and the entire Goat Academy team all the best!

Thank you so much for such a thoughtful and heartfelt review Sufi. It means a lot to hear how much the structure, coaching and accountability inside the Academy supported you on your journey. The goal has always been to create a place where students feel guided, encouraged and genuinely cared for.

Your words about learning how to “fish” rather than rely on shortcuts really capture what we focus on giving every member. Seeing you progress all the way through to Alumni and continue applying everything with confidence is exactly why we built this community.

The rest of the team will be over the moon to read this. Winston and the kittens would be too if they could read.

Wishing you continued success in the markets and beyond.

A View From A Broad ( an old goat per se)

What makes my experience here great is the support I am receiving from the customer service manager, from Jesus, from instructors such as Byung Kim, Carlos and Matt that make you feel that what ever level you are at is okay and we build from there. I always look so forward to Elliot as well and the humour he interjects helps tremendously. I wish I had Felix doing videos here on Sundays or whatever days as I saw him on You tube and find his explanations most insightful. To this day (as well as taking the program) I still sign up and do his weekly intros for people because I always find a gem of information. I have no background in this area whatsoever but wanted to feel that I could learn and manage my own portfolio instead of shelling out thousands every quarter and just feeling like a number to the institution. Here despite the amount of students, you feel valued no matter what level you are at. Not feeling so helpless any longer but moreso hopeful. Maybe Tom Hanks can make a movie out of that!

Hi Kimberly, thank you so much for such a thoughtful and uplifting review. It genuinely means a lot to hear how supported you have felt by the team. Jesus, Byung Kim, Carlos, Matt and the rest of our coaches will be delighted to know their guidance has helped you feel more confident and less overwhelmed.

Elliot will also smile reading this. His humour is exactly why so many students look forward to his sessions. I am glad the weekly intros and the course have continued to give you fresh insights, even without a background in finance. Feeling valued at every level is something we work very hard on, I am grateful that came through for you.

You have been putting the work in and it shows. Please keep leaning on the coaches across the different time zones whenever you need direction.

Thank you again for being part of the community. And if Tom Hanks ever decides to make that movie, I want a cameo.

Wishing you continued progress and confidence,
Felix

Comprehensive training and support

I discovered Felix Prehn via his YouTube channel. My initial reaction was 'Quirky chap, VERY dry sense of humour, has an enormous number of cats/kittens and golden retriever, Winston'.

Given my shared ownership of cats, that was enough to follow the channel and take time to assess what he had to say. He was one of many stock market commentators that I was following, so I had points of comparison. There are a lot of financial courses on offer from YouTubers, so Felix's Goat Academy was one of a mix in my sights.

To be honest, my starting point was that I could likely get what I needed from watching various videos - and I didn't think it worth the outlay to pay for anything at all from my hard-earned cash.

And then Liberation Day happened.

In 3 days, over 17% of my portfolio was wiped out - before I decided to cut my losses and sell all of my positions. I had no idea what else to do than stop the haemorrhaging of money.

Annoyingly, then everything I had owned bounced right back up and I'd have been considerably better off, if I had retained my original investments.

Conclusion: I had absolutely no idea what I was doing, other than guesses. I was undertaking what I thought was 'research', before committing to investments - when I look back, these attempts were laughable, but seemed logical at the time.

Following this painful experience, I did pay closer attention to Felix's YouTube observations, as a direct result of which I managed to recoup my losses over a couple of weeks. I'd originally resisted signing up to Goat Academy, but this was the point at which I acknowledged I needed help.

My reasons for choosing Goat Academy over another option was primarily that Felix talked about stocks, market behaviours, short and long term observations - but essentially refused to adopt the line of, "Buy/don't buy this stock, it will make you rich/it's a disaster". He was very much of the view people should learn the patterns, rules and behaviours of markets, to understand not only what but when to buy/sell, how to screen for suitable investments - and how to negotiate what can be a massive rollercoaster.

It was a "Let me teach you how to fish" approach, "so that you don't have to be dependent on me" view.

I also had a look at 'Tradevision' (yes, it is his trading tool - and yes, it does have an edge on other equivalents, though I do use several).

Before any naysayers have a go at my mentioning 'Felix doesn't tell you what to buy/sell on his YouTube channel' - yes, he does talk about companies and sectors. He also makes clear, for those paying attention, that whatever companies or funds that are mentioned, these can change their market position very, very, very rapidly (sometimes within hours). Therefore, what might be considered a 'buy' on one day could be the complete opposite the next. On that point, my view is never to buy/sell something because of what someone has mentioned on YouTube; if that's your approach, brace yourself to lose a lot of money.

Eventually, with reservations, I did commit to joining Goat Academy.

The range of educational material is extensive, accessible and in plain English. Felix presents much of it, but there are a number of coaches available - for which you can request one-to-one tuition. Group sessions are available, either to join live or watch on catch-up, according to your schedule. There is also a chatty community of students and weekly content to digest and discuss.

Be under no illusion: this is NOT a get-rich-quick scheme and you do have to put in hours of study (set aside a good 6 hours weekly - I did more - but it really is a case that you will get out of it what you put in).

And I am still learning, over 4 months into being a Goat Academy student, so this process will take time. I have made and continue to make mistakes along the way, so have happily signed up for another 4 months.

Was Goat Academy worth the money?

I can only account for my own experience: in my first 4 months I nearly doubled my portfolio value. In a typical week, I increase the value by between 2-4% - sometimes the returns are much better and bad weeks still happen. Much of the learning process focusses on understanding the psychology of the markets and your own behaviours, so as to stop making bad decisions. A fundamental principle is to protect your capital and to know when to let an exhausted investment go.

As I write, this week on the markets has been torrid - and was my reason for renewing my membership, because I personally still need the support through these difficult times.

To summarise, although initially doubtful, Goat Academy proved absolutely worthwhile. I made back the course fee within 3 wks & went on to profit substantially. I'm now passing on this knowledge to my children.

Early retirement beckons, and a new house I never thought I could afford. More is now possible.

Wow, what an incredible journey! Thank you so much for sharing this. It’s always inspiring to hear from someone who’s been through the ups and downs of the markets and come out stronger for it.

Your story captures exactly why we built the Academy, not to hand out stock tips but to teach the patterns, risk framework and decision-making that give traders lasting confidence and control.

I’m really glad you found value in the structure of the programme and the depth of support available, from the daily group sessions to 1-1 coaching with experts like Brendan, Carlos and Elliot each bringing decades of institutional experience.

The fact that you’ve turned that knowledge into consistent portfolio growth and are now passing it on to your children genuinely means a lot to me and the team here at Goat Academy.

Thank you for trusting the process and taking the time to write such a thoughtful review. Wishing you continued success (give the cats my best!)

Great coaching, rules, and recommendations for investors of all skill levels.

Adding to GOAT's great catalog of tutorial resources, the access to live webinars and 1:1 coaching is superb. As a relatively successful investor, I was seeking more sophisticated strategies for options. Jesus is a very good coach, taking his time to ensure you understand every step of the various processes and the context around the tactics. He is teaching me options strategies and executional tactics that I was unfamiliar with, creating new opportunities for earnings, while mitigating risk. My ROI on the course is already 10x after one month.

My time with the GOAT Academy

I joined the Goat Academy, after watching Felix and Friends Youtube videos for a couple months, in June of 2025 and have since grown in both my personal and financial life. I have had peace of mind of steady growth in my portfolio, I have also gained the confidence to pick my own stocks which has allowed me to trade without FOMO, and in doing so I am buying smart. As Felix says, it’s easier to call momentum than it is a bottom. I did well enough before this course buying low, selling high or trying to, that if I just kept up with my returns, this academy would pay for itself. Since joining I have doubled my usual returns.

I treated this course like I was going to trading college. They have 4-8 classes a day on all different levels of instruction. Some are basic for beginners, some focused on longer term less active investment accounts and others focused on trading. Some of the classes get into market conditions and most reading charts. And even a % of the classes are rather specialized. If you're learning to trade I highly recommend 1on1 coaching, if you know how to trade i highly recommend 1on1 coaching. The difference here is accelerated learning 1on1 and/or checking your trade logic with an expert. Any given coach will know multiple ways (strategies) to trade and/or invest as well as have experience in doing so.

Just as Felix portrays it is about preservation of capital first, because it's harder to grow wealth no matter how much you make if you can't hold onto it. Coaches are going to make sure you understand stop losses and position sizing before you do anything else. There will be classes every week to reinforce this, Matt will have some great classes to get you started. Carlos might be the only coach that teaches more classes than Matt and you can learn a lot from both of them. I think one of the most tenured coaches here is Jesus who hosts various classes from setting up screeners to reading charts and often has impromptu chart reading and other sessions. Any of them can teach you the basics all the way to being an expert.

Beyond the things I participated in, there were classes on income strategies and fixed investments. I think if someone requested something and there was enough interest the academy found a coach to accommodate. One of the things I pursued was writing a trading algo, and within 3 weeks of joining the program we had a coach for that. All the instructors have years of experience and some decades. Not everyone trades the same way, but however they trade they are all so kind when they go over it with you. I asked a lot of questions and definitely a few I repeated and they were always so kind and knowledgeable. Most of the coaches just do coaching or teach 1 or 2 classes a week. I highly recommend any of them. Elliot and Brendan have great weekly market/economic recaps (Worth staying up late or getting up early, I think they have some tenure with the program too). And if you're trying to get help reading Felix’s notes Brett Medina has been doing a class every week.

1) how to position your trades (sizing)
2) when to sell (or how to manage your stop loss/gain)
3) what to look for as an investor or trader (through screeners and chart analysis)

There's also a list that shows you what Felix is considering/buying every week...but by the time you graduate you'll be making your own lists that I would like to tweak a bit more. It is a 3 step process, in the order outlined above. You are going to make your own rules, learn to follow them, and then get re-enforcement on how to pick stocks, when to buy, and when to sell them. Simply put if you follow your rules you will get what you expect and sometimes more.

Today is the last day of my program and I am grateful for the friends and mentors I have met along the way. Felix once said he was just an average guy (not Winston, he's not an average dog), and learned everything from his mentors, retired investment bankers, I feel I got the same tutorage. Thank you all for being so helpful and full of knowledge. Besides the ones I worked with I could credit anyone that ever made a video (i watched most of them), and am sorry I didnt have a chance to meet every coach.

Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review. It is brilliant to hear how much confidence you have gained, from trading without FOMO to building your own rules and seeing consistent growth. That is exactly the type of foundation we want all students to carry forward.

I am pleased you highlighted the classes and one to one coaching. With 5 to 6 live sessions a day, you can choose everything from beginner fundamentals to advanced options and different strategies. Coaches such as Brendan, Elliot and Carlos bring decades of experience from leading firms and funds, while Jesús and Brett excel in teaching technicals, charting and risk management in a way that is simple and practical. Others like Matt focus heavily on capital preservation, stop losses and position sizing so you are always building from a place of safety. Many of our coaches have traded professionally on Wall Street, run hedge funds or taught at top universities, which is why the learning feels like a true trading college!

It has been a real pleasure having you in the Academy and seeing how you have embraced the process. Wishing you continued success as you carry this forward.

All the best,
Felix

I was a complete stranger to the financial markets …

I was a complete stranger to the world of economics and finance. I joined the Goat Academy because I wanted to be educated in that topic and make something more with my money than just have it in my bank or spend it on something useless. I also wanted to make the future of my family more secure. I first joined the Wall Street protocol where I learned about financial markets and stocks. I really made an effort and invested a lot of my time acquiring new knowledge. The more I learned the more I understood how the markets work and how to make profit of that knowledge. All the mentors - coaches and my client manager Biljana really made a great effort. When you attend their sessions you truly get the impression that it is their true purpose to give you all the knowledge you need to have and even more knowledge if you are willing to learn. I am now entering the options program because I believe it is very complementary to trading stocks. I am looking forward to learning even more and securing financial freedom for me and my family. Many many thanks to the whole Goat Academy community

Wow Matić, what an incredible journey you’ve described. To come in as a complete stranger to the financial markets and dedicate yourself so fully to learning says everything about your mindset. It’s been inspiring to see how you’ve embraced the process, connected with the mentors and Biljana and already started applying your knowledge with confidence.

I’m really glad you’re stepping into the options programme too, you’re right it complements stock trading beautifully and will give you an even broader skill set. Thank you for sharing your story, it will definitely motivate others who are just starting out.

Wishing you and your family continued success on this path,
Felix

A successful and enjoyable learning experience

I've been on quite a journey from knowing very little about trading when I joined the GOAT academy, to now feeling a lot more in control. I undertook my initial course with 121 sessions with the coaches, studying very hard and trying to listen to as many coach training calls as I could. I found the coaches excellent and very supportive. After graduating from the course, I was then on my own for a couple of months, but was lacking confidence in the choppy markets to place trades. I realised that I needed to invest in my education, continue learning and have the support of the GOAT coaches, the community and Felix's weekly stock pick list. So after much personal deliberation, I have re-joined for 12 months and I am pleased to say its turned out to be a very good decision. I have now had several successful trades, and plenty of others invested still. My successful trades are paying for my re-enrolment. I am continuing to learn, still working on my skills, listening to as many coach calls as I can, and getting better all of the time, and most importantly still very much enjoying the journey.

I admire the commitment you’ve shown in diving into the calls, working closely with the coaches and then making the decision to reinvest in yourself when you realised that ongoing support would make the difference.

I’m especially glad the combination of the community, the coaching team and my weekly stock picks have helped you regain momentum and start seeing your trades pay for themselves. That’s exactly the kind of sustainable growth we want for our members.

It’s a pleasure having you with us on this journey and I look forward to seeing your skills and confidence continue to grow.

Thank you for sharing and wishing you continued success,
Felix

Numbers speak for themselves

Numbers speak for themselves.

"Your account had a cumulative rate of return of 46.04% from Jun 24, 2025 to Sep 23, 2025."

The best investment I've made so far is in these guys. You wont be told what or when to buy, you'll learn when to get in or out of any stock and why! Its up to you to put in the work and find stocks & create your own portfolio. It's not a handout. I believe that's why there's some mixed reviews online. And yes, i had a string of investments that didn't work out. However, losses were small thanks to risk management which I've learned about and because of that i was able to re-invest the money into other stocks.

I wish i had found out about this sooner.

I’m really glad the Academy has helped you build the skills and confidence to manage your portfolio with clarity and strong risk management Rob. That’s exactly why we created the Academy, not to hand out trades but to make sure you know how to make your own decisions for a lifetime.

I know you mentioned wishing you had found this sooner but everything comes in good time and it’s great to see the progress you’ve already made in just this time. I’m excited to see how far you’ll go as you continue building on that momentum.

Wishing you nothing but success,

My 6 week experience with Goat Academy…

My 6 week experience with Goat Academy has been great so far in my learning journey. I've had a major learning curve to conquer and still do but the coaches and support staff have all been professional, prompt on responses to questions and concerns and courteous. Im really glad I joined and I see progress in my journey.

It’s fantastic to hear you’re already seeing progress after your first six weeks. The beginning can feel like a steep learning curve so I’m really pleased the coaching team and support staff have been there for you both with quick responses and guidance.

The Academy is designed as a 6–12 month journey, so you’re still at the very start. I’m excited to see how much more you’ll achieve as you keep building on this momentum.

Wishing you both all the best,
Felix
