I don't live anywhere near Georgia, so I can't make any recommendations based on personal experience.
However, I did have a quick glance at the Atlanta Obedience Club website and it looked ok as far as I can tell. Usually dog obedience clubs are a pretty good place to start your search. They're typically far better than petsmart, for example, and one-off training establishments can be really hit or miss in terms of quality of instruction. Obedience clubs, on the other hand, will likely have a range of classes to suit everything from entry level and puppy classes all the way up to high level competition classes. And they're usually staffed by knowledgeable instructors.
I would probably begin by contacting them, briefly state what it is you're looking for whether it's puppy classes etc. Ask if it's possible to observe a class without your dog. Then, look for happy owners and happy dogs being trained by completely kind methods, and if you like what you see proceed from there.
