If you want to detect player animations in general(assuming you’re trying to copy player movement) Animator.AnimationPlayed is an event which fires when an AnimationTrack is being player for a specific character:

--Script inside StarterCharacterScripts
local Character = script.Parent 
local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local Animator = Humanoid:WaitForChild("Animator")

Animator.AnimationPlayed:Connect(function(animationTrack)
	local AnimObject = animationTrack.Animation 
	print(AnimObject.AnimationId)
end)

and to get already running animationTracks:

local AnimationTracks = Animator:GetPlayingAnimationTracks() 
for _, animationTrack in pairs(AnimationTracks) do
	local AnimObject = animationTrack.Animation 
	print(AnimObject.AnimationId)
end
