Inclusion criteria
. Equal to or greater than 6 months post-stroke with gait impairment
. Age \>/= 18 - 85 years of age, inclusive
. Understand and speak English
. Must be able to ambulate without assistance from another person. Note: assistive devices are allowed. If a participant uses an assistive device at the time of enrollment, the device must be used for all walking sessions.
. Willing to travel to a Velocity location to complete in-person gait assessments
. Able to walk at a speed greater than or equal to 0.4 m/s as derived as an average of speed per minute from the 6MWT. Note: if a participant intends to use an assistive device throughout the intervention period, the assistive device must be used during the gait assessment.
. Must have claims data available and consent to sharing.
Exclusion criteria
. Hearing impairment with or without the use of hearing aids such that the participant cannot hear the rhythmic stimulation of the music

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
Number of walking sessions during 12-week intervention period
. Unable to safely participate in walking sessions as determined by investigator
. Requires more than one rest (seated or not) during the 6MWT
. Significant comorbid medical or neurological conditions that could impact gait or prevent safe participation as determined by the Investigator. For example: condition that prevents participation in exercise, e.g., Parkinson's disease, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, muscular dystrophy, or spinal cord injury. Note: major surgery within the last 3 months is exclusionary.
. People who are pregnant or become pregnant (due to expected gait pattern changes).
