Shiver me timbers, LimbPower and UR:Enabled launch swashbuckling adapted pirate exercise videos for limb different pirate children!

Introducing the Adventures of Captain Jetz and the limb different Pirate Crew – a brand-new animated series of exercise videos for children with upper and lower limb differences, which the whole family of buccaneers can join in! Join Captain Jetz and his crew of limb different pirates as they set sail on the Jolly Lolly on a journey filled with fitness, fun, and excitement!

Each episode is a bite-sized workout that children can easily follow, with three different levels of difficulty to choose from. With a total of 24 episodes, children will have plenty of opportunities to get their heart rate pumping and muscles moving.

The series starts with a welcome video where UR: Enabled founder Miranda Asher introduces the children to Captain Limb and his crew, setting the scene for the pirate-themed workout adventure that’s about to unfold. The workout itself is full of pirate-inspired terminology and movements to keep children engaged and excited. They’ll learn to walk the plank, climb the tower, and row the boat – all while working up a sweat!

The series includes a warm-up and cool-down video, so children can get their bodies ready for the workout and cool down safely afterwards. The warm-up and cool-down videos are designed to help prevent injury and promote flexibility. Warm up with Captain Jez and his limb different friends Merri the Starfish, Flots the Narwhal and Archie the Dolphin. You can download the images for the warm-up from the LimbPower website www.limbpower.com.

The Adventures of Captain Limb and the Pirate Crew was created by UR:Enabled and co-produced with the charity and National Disability Sports Organisation LimbPower. The project was funded by The True Colours Trust and LimbPower, both of which are committed to helping children with limb differences live full and active lives.

When using the videos at home, be sure to also incorporate the safety instructions and modifications for different abilities and skill levels. Whether you’re a seasoned swashbuckler or a first-time sailor, there’s something for everyone in the Adventures of Captain Limb and the Pirate Crew!

LimbPower could not undertake projects like this without the financial support we received from Sport England as a recognised National Disability Sports organisation and system partner.
