Department of Life Sciences, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan
Motor Control 17:18-33. 2013..These results show that the level of muscle cocontraction in the lower limbs during whole-body sensorimotor synchronization movement is associated with the degree of proficiency of the movement...
Relationship between muscle cocontraction and proficiency in whole-body sensorimotor synchronization: a comparison study of street dancers and nondancersAkita Miura
Department of Life Sciences, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, The University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan

Department of Life Sciences, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, The University of Tokyo, Japan
Hum Mov Sci 30:1260-71. 2011..These findings suggest that down and up movements are two distinguishable coordination modes in whole-body coordination, and that street dancers have superior whole-body SMS ability...
Variability and fluctuation in running gait cycle of trained runners and non-runnersYosuke Nakayama
Department of Life Sciences, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, The University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan

'Initial state' coordinations reproduce the instant flexibility for human walkingAkane Ohgane
Department of Life Sciences, The University of Tokyo, Komaba 3 8 1, Tokyo, 153 8902, Japan
Biol Cybern 93:426-35. 2005..We hypothesize that flexibility is achieved by modulating the posture at the beginning of the stance phase-the initial state. Using a walking model, we validate our hypothesis through computer simulations...
