Scooters - Hypermobility - Children - Adults
Did you know 30% of children ages 8 years and over, including adults who can’t ride a 2 wheel scooter 🛴 ⛔️
Hypermobility is extremely common, 1 in 3 people unwittingly have it and it can play havoc with your walking, running, scooting and general activity leading to inactivity and injury 🤕
A scooter is fun, fitness and active travel, but is now a clinical screening tool for hypermobility of the knee.
Why, because if you have this condition it’s sometimes impossible to balance on a scooter due to leg locking (bone on bone) and you’re at high risk of falling off.
But a scooter shines a massive spotlight on it and we catch you before it happens.
A scooter is actually a more superior balance test than traditional balance tests in schools and NHS.
Who would have thought that, plus the test to identify and make safe only takes 10 seconds.
This helps us increase active travel and safety for schools using scooters for play so facial injuries and exclusion are drastically reduced.
Scoot Fit is regarded as The Best Day In School Ever, children and teachers love it because everyone is safe with no unnecessary injuries due to failure to balance.
We offer fun days to schools to show how to use scooters safely for play, we train councils in how to deliver fun, road safety training, we show how to spot hypermobility and make people safe.
Get your Scoot Fit training today and discover a new way of moving, increasing active travel and if you have undiagnosed hypermobility holding you back.
A scooter is a secret super weapon
