This exercise is the beginning of the Symmetrical Tonic Neck Reflex (STNR)
Technique:
In quadruped (on all hands and knees) the child will lean out and over the hands while looking up to the ceiling without arching the back and then sit down and back on the feet while tucking the chin and keeping the arms perfectly straight - no bend in the elbows.
