Amanda Burdett
About
Amanda commitment to promoting healthy lifestyles and using exercise to prevent and manage disease stems from her own family’s history of lifestyle-related diseases. This personal connection drives her to empower her clients to take control of their wellbeing, using exercise and lifestyle change to prevent, treat, and manage various health conditions.
With over 10 years working as an Accredited Exercise Physiologist, Amanda’s experience is wide and varied, from clinical practice to teaching our future AEPs, from children to the elderly, athletes to armchair experts and everything in between! She is currently also lecturing at UTS in their new Masters of Clinical Exercise Physiology program with a focus on complex cases & clinical care and placements.
At Oracle Healthcare, Amanda’s goal is to help people find a way to move that they actually enjoy, so they can also enjoy the health benefits associated with increased physical activity! She believes that everyone deserves a program designed specifically for them, which is finely attuned to their own personal likes (and dislikes!) and current goals.
Beyond the world of Exercise Physiology, Amanda actively supports charitable causes, including being a committee member for the Dementia Research Community’s Gala Night, and leading rides for events like ‘Bondi2Berry Ride to Remember’ and ‘Bike Ride for Brain Cancer.’
In her free time, Amanda loves travelling, time with family & friends, cycling, touch football, and sports in general, with her own sporting achievements including winning the 2015 FIT Touch World Cup and representing Australia in the UCI Cycling World Championships in 2019.
