Huddle #58 – Chat with Stunt Actor Heather Burridge
Ten years ago almost to the day a young athlete by the name of Heather Burridge was brought to see me by her parents, seeking guidance to overcome a chronic injury. At that time Heather was pursuing throws in track & field and netball.
During the next few years working with Heather, I noticed this athlete had an x-factor, like the stereotypical female warrior. As a result, she earned the title of ‘The Goddess’.
After leaving school Heather commenced an engineering degree at university. However, it wasn’t long before her yearning to use her physicality took her on another path. True to her warrior traits, Heather courageously changed paths and went on to follow her own path of stunt work for movies. She has established herself in the industry and her credits are impressive and growing.
