Parkinsonian Gait 

Parkinson's gait is very characteristic: Standing, the patient tends to tilt the trunk forward, being unable to perform compensatory movements to regain balance. During gait, it is difficult to transfer weight from one foot to the other, thus making your steps short and staggering (festive gait). There are specific difficulties in starting the gait movement and turning around, and there may also be a sudden interruption of gait (freezing) in the face of obstacles.
