Ministry of funny walks

A random question, but is there anything unusual about your walking gait?

  • I've come back to this because of the special interest part. My background is in martial arts and I'm a chartered physiotherapist.  I think that one of the reasons it is maybe I went into that field of training because consciously or otherwise I had movement difficulties when younger.  Having an unusual gait is a broad term - it could be suggested that the gait of Olympic runners is unusual!  I suppose one angle on it is whether the gait one has is instrumental in harm or disability in one way or another.  From my perspective as a relatively recently diagnosed ASD person I think that maybe I should focus on the possibility of helping other ASD people if they wanted me to with movement problems...  Thanks for the post
