Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if operant conditioning can reduce spasticity in order to improve walking in stroke patient. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Can participants self-regulate reflex excitability
* Can participants self-regulate reflex, reduce spasticity and improve walking Participants will undergo surface stimulation to evoke spinal reflexes and will be asked to control these reflexes therefore reducing spasticity.

Researchers will compare result to able bodied participants to see if \[insert effects\]
