Why does Yoda appear to walk very slowly and with the assistance of a cane when it's been shown in his fight with Dooku that he can move extremely fast and is acrobatically proficient?

I understand Yoda is efficient at putting on an image. In fact the odd sentence structure he is famous for been explained in that it makes his words have more of an impression on people. So does he walk feebly in order to put on a front that he is not a threat? Or is it that he can only achieve such acrobatic feats when he taps into his Force power for combat? Or am I just missing the point entirely?


Edit: Minor spelling adjustments.

When he's limping around, it's because he's old and frail. It's not an act. 

He could almost certainly walk without the cane and perform acrobatic feats anytime he wished, but he's too much of an ascetic to use the force for any reason beyond absolute necessity.
