Determination

Welcome to the Alinker

We send out this INSIDER newsletter every week with all the news about what is going on in the world of the Alinker. You'll read about new products, our Alinker Family, the Alinker Family Farm, the Alinker Academy, user stories, the weekly BE hive and other info. We are building access to health and wellness.

Together we move differently

Alinker is a SheEO venture and a certified BCorp. We are founded on the traditional and unceded territories of Indigenous people, we hire Alinker users, pay Living Wages to all team members, measure our impact with the UN SDGs, and we speak our truths unapologetically when it comes to equality, diversity, justice and BlackLivesMatter.

When design matches your determination

Often we hear from people who receive the Alinker that getting going is harder than they thought. 'It looks so easy on the videos," they say. Because we live in a 'sickcare' system that does not support wellness, people lose more mobility than necessary. The Alinker is designed for how we want to live - active and engaged - though it takes determination and effort to regain some or all of strength and independence.

Take Sergio Robelto, a young man who was in a motor accident and broke his back a couple of years ago. Doctors had told him he would never walk again. Sergio did not want to settle for that, so he found NeuroFit 360 in Florida. A rehabilitation gym for people with spinal cord injuries, a place where they use the Alinker and believe in people and in possibilities.

Jerris Madison, Chief Editor of Obvious Magazine. Cancer took his leg, but not his spirit. He appeared as the opening model with a disability on the runway of the LA Fashion Show 2017. Since he found the Alinker his friends have trouble keeping up with him. At 6’4” Jerris moves at his own speed again as we send him love.

Victory (not her real name) has Parkinson's, and she retains a vision to move. She found the Alinker at the Liquid Gym in Ottawa and the design matched her determination! Victory!

What is possible after a stroke?

Latina was active, and she is still active

We are often asked if you can use the Alinker after having a stroke where one arm and/or leg does not cooperate anymore. Latina has always been an active woman. She is an activist in her community and is engaged and outgoing. A couple of years ago she had a massive stroke and everything stopped, but Latina did not. It took a lot of determination and hard work, but it paid off. Last year she canvassed on her Alinker around the neighbourhoods as she ran for City Council.

The BE Hive

To Chadwick Boseman: Rest in Power Dear Soul.

Actor who brought the movie "Black Panther" to life with his charismatic intensity and regal performance

You represented so much for all people who look like you, but far beyond what you look like, you modelled that who you are is more powerful than what you have. You have made such a mark in the hearts and souls of so many. Cancer took you, but it will never take away what you have made eternal through your acting, your characters and your person: the power, the kindness, the heart and your love.

Representation is everything. Something happens when we can see ourselves in brilliant characters, in kind and powerful characters, in characters who resemble us. When we see our truths modelled, something shifts. When we see a hero that looks like us, we relate to ourselves differently. And this is especially powerful for people who are stigmatized, discriminated against and marginalized by a society that assumes one mainstream, a mainstream that dominates all other people.

Representation is everything. Being a role model that people can look up to, aspire to and in which they recognize their own inner truths helps us connect to the universal truths inside ourselves. It silences the external voices and the judging that comes from a society that bullies those who look and move different than the assumed mainstream.

Representation is everything. The assumed mainstream loses power every time we speak and live our truths, our deep inner knowing. Who we are is who we are. We, who look and move differently, are the vast majority of diverse people who want to live in peace and with respect for humanity and earth. By what you modelled you mobilized and empowered a whole generation of people who look and move differently.

You living and modelling who you are with such integrity has forever changed the path of millions.

Thank you and safe travels
