About this trial
This study is a randomised controlled trial designed to compare two adapted physical activity treatments for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). The main hypotheses it aims to address are as follows:
* Treatment with a HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training) type training program via tele-rehabilitation, supervised by an adapted physical activity teacher, is effective in AIS. * A 12-week physical activity program maintains this efficacy over the long term. To test this hypothesis, Two groups of adolescents will be evaluated: a first group made up of non-athletic adolescents suffering from Idiopathic Scoliosis who will benefit from a tele-rehabilitation (physical activity sessions at home supervised by a teacher in adapted physical activities by video). A second group, control, also made up of non-athletic adolescents suffering from Idiopathic Scoliosis who will benefit from a self-program at home consisting of exercises specific to their scoliosis.

Treatments tested in this trial
Home-based adapted physical activity program supervised by an APA teacher via individual video conference.
Other interventionParticipants will follow a 12-week tele-rehabilitation programme involving high-intensity interval training (HIIT) adapted to their AIS. The programme includes three 45-minute individual sessions per week. The exercises are selected from a database designed for AIS patients. The APA teacher will systematically document the patient's presence or absence at each tele-rehabilitation session, thus assessing their adherence to the programme.
First period of the home-based adapted physical activity program with an exercise booklet.
Other interventionParticipants will receive a self-programme in the form of a booklet of specific HIIT-type exercises adapted to their AIS. The programme is to be carried out at home over a 12-week period, with 3 45-minute sessions per week. The exercises are taken from the same database. Each participant in the CONTROL group will be encouraged to keep a follow-up diary, noting the date, start time and end time of each session (in order to assess adherence to the sessions).
Second period of the home-based adapted physical activity program with an exercise booklet.
Other interventionParticipants will receive a self-programme in the form of a booklet containing specific HIIT-type exercises adapted to their AIS. The programme is to be carried out at home over a 12-week period, with 3 45-minute sessions per week. The exercises are taken from the same database. Each participant in the CONTROL group will be encouraged to keep a follow-up diary, noting the date, start time and end time of each session (in order to assess adherence to the sessions).
