Default Head orientation in turns--how is it taught for aviation?

Mxsmanic wrote
When you make a coordinated turn in an aircraft, are you taught to let
your head tilt with the bank angle of the aircraft, or are you taught
to keep your head normal to the horizon?


Head and body should remain perpendicular to the floor of the
cockpit. This comes naturally if the turn is coordinated.
