Entrepreneurial Excellence Scholarship
Violaine Corteville, STAPS-APAS graduate, winner of a scholarship awarded by the UPHF Foundation
A career that combines passion, perseverance and commitment to health care
Graduated in STAPS - Adapted Physical Activity and Health course in 2024, Violaine is now an Adapted Physical Activity teacher at the Saint-Roch rehabilitation clinic in Roncq. Every day, she puts her skills at the service of people undergoing reconstruction, with a clear desire: to enable everyone to regain movement, confidence and autonomy.
A passionate sportswoman, she practices amateur cycling and triathlon, demanding disciplines in which she finds personal balance, but also a way of embodying the values she upholds.
In 2025, she proudly represents the DigestScience foundation, committed to research into digestive diseases, at various sporting competitions
.An entrepreneur recognized by the Fondation Partenariale Polytechnique Hauts-de-France
This commitment has also inspired her to develop an ambitious entrepreneurial project: a sport-health application called "Mouv'APS" for people with chronic illnesses.
As part of her entrepreneurial project, Violaine was supported by the HubHouse, which put her in touch with the Les Rives Créatives incubator in particular.
So, her project is to design a comprehensive tool, centered on four pillars of sustainable health: adapted physical activity, nutrition, sleep and mental health.
The objective is clear: to help each person become a player in their own health, in a simple, conscious and sustainable way.
Bravo and congratulations to our graduate on winning this scholarship!
