Invaluable experience for Deakin students
DCEC was developed for students of our Master of Clinical Exercise Physiology course. Thanks to the centre located at Deakin's Burwood campus, students can apply their clinical knowledge to real clients.
Working alongside accredited exercise physiologists, students meet with clients, conduct assessments and create exercise and lifestyle programs.

Our services and programs
When you attend the DCEC, we start by getting to know you so that we can tailor exercise to your needs.
This may include using the on-campus facilities (purpose built gym) or we can develop programs that use what's available to you at home or in your community.
As well as one-on-one services we run several group programs, with more coming soon.
Sugar Beat
Designed for people with pre-diabetes and diabetes, Sugar Beat provides lifestyle planning, exercise programs and the chance to make new friends.
