What is the Gait Cycle? How do we link it from the foot to the shoulder?

https://bodymaster-method.mykajabi.co...
John Gibbons is a registered Osteopath, Lecturer and Multi-published Author and in this video, he is discussing the gait and walking cycle and the association to the myofascial slings and the pelvis as taken from his vital glutes & psoas online course..

In The Vital Glutes & Psoas Masterclass osteopath, author and respected bodywork specialist John Gibbons looks at two of the most neglected areas of the body: the gluteal & psoas muscles. During the online course he will take you on a fascinating journey of enlightenment, teaching you to recognise pain and dysfunctional patterns that can arise from dysfunctions found within the gluteal & psoas muscles

John will teach you functional anatomy and the biomechanics of the kinetic chain and the link to the gluteal & psoas muscles and how they relate to pain and dysfunction to distant sites of the body. Once that has been understood, he takes you on a fascinating journey to functionally assess the firing patterns of the Gmax and Gmed as well as specific muscle length tests that can alter the position of the pelvis and lumbar spine with the psoas naturally being one of them.
