Student Testimonials:

‘I want to be sure that the folks at BBU know what a gem they have in Melissa Kakavas! Having been a PT for many years, I have been to a lot of courses. Melissa is phenomenal, explaining difficult material clearly with analogies and patience. She also has the gift of delivering constructive criticism in such a positive way which creates a great learning environment. I am amazed at her knowledge of the body, for example, postural analysis. She has boundless energy and answered all of our questions and e-mails very professionally. It is clear to any student that Melissa wants you to be a safe and effective teacher.
