Portuguese term or phrase: marcha talonante
A marcha é insegura, e os passos desordenados, o paciente caminha com as pernas afastadas uma da outra, levantando-as em excesso para em seguida projeta-las com energia no solo, tocando-o com o calcanhar (marcha talonante ou calcaneante).

I have already searched in gait disorders but could not find anything similar. Hopefully somebody knows this one. Thanks.

disagree  Colin Bowles: You will not find "heeling gait" on reliable "native" sites. I would not rely on "non-native" articles/sites as a reference.
