"It's like watching a series.
You know you don't have time to watch another episode but you want to so you do.
​
When attending a talk or course, I usually struggle to focus for even half an hour but because the videos were short, I felt accomplished after each one and I could take a break every 10 to 15 minutes.
​
I found the layout very user friendly and I liked that I could work through it in my own time."
​
- Kalinka Terre Blanche
Clinician at Rainsford Biokinetics
"The way the course was set up was so ideal.
If I could fit the whole course in one day, I think I would have. But it's like a series. Every time you're like one more episode, just one more, one more module.
From the beginning, I understood the flow right until the end. It was very user friendly.
The materials help you stay on top of the game for every session you go into. "
- Jodie Vermeulen
Clinician at SA Biokinetics INC
"You went a step further and said how can we practically implement this with the client.
Most courses they would just say yes instead of using this, use this, and that's pretty much the end of it.
But they don't really get into the specifics of, okay, how would you change your approach if you're using method B instead of your usual method?
And that's what I also love about that specific module."
- Brendon Marais
Clinician at bmbio
"Definitely a lot of value for money"
​
"and enthusiasm for your career. The other thing was the practical advice. Lots of info but broken down into steps: practical steps. "
​

"This has been like Christmas for me"
"I'm very scientific and I try to be as evidence-based as I can. And this has been like christmas for me; learning and doing this course."
