Chicken Pecking and Spinal Length

This lesson explores the subtle movement of sliding the chin forward and back relative to the spine. Participants explore this coordination while sitting and lying on their front, noticing how small movements at the top of the neck relate to the length of the spine. The session concludes with a walking exploration of this head-to-neck mobility.
