Head Effects Legs Too Much

[Mike281538326e2c]

When my puppet moves his head around, it makes his legs move a little too, like he's swaying. I've taken the "Head Position" and "Head Tilt" strengths down, but I don't want to sacrifice expresiveness just to keep the legs from being affected so much. I have some "Fixed" sticks at the bottom of my character's body, but that doesn't help. I imagine part of my problem is the character's legs are about half-hidden behind the torso, and so those body parts are being affected due to their shared space with the bendy torso. 

I like my rigging (legs independent, tagged and whatnot) , I just need a way for the legs to not move with the body.

If you don't want your puppet's head movements to carry over to its feet
1) Select the body layer in rig mode.
2) Place the stick tool around the waist.
3) Attach a fixed tag.

Please try it. Thanks.
