Highlights
γ»A02l neurons are tonically active and transiently suppressed during muscle contraction.
γ»EM connectomics analyses reveal that A02l neurons excite inhibitory premotor networks to maintain muscle relaxation.
γ»Optogenetic activation and inhibition bidirectionally change larval behavior.

We identified a class of segmental interneurons in the Drosophila larval VNC (the analog of the spinal cord) that gate motor output via tonic inhibition.
