This paper reports on the development of a gait training system and its experimental results. The outstanding feature of the system is the constant dynamic adjustment of the tension lifting the trainee based on the information from floor reaction force. The load on the trainee’s foot on the floor is regularly maintained at a low-burden level; therefore, the load on the foot is similar to the effect of walking in a pool. The system was tested on a handicapped person, and improvements in balancing ability were shown.
