Disable tap to wake- Apple Watch

Is there any way at all do disable tap to wake on the Apple Watch?


It activates when I cross my arms, when I hold my children, when my children decide it’s a fun toy to play with, and a number of other scenarios. I have to cancel several workouts a day because they’re accidentally started, and the watch face gets changed on me all the time because of the long press. It’s become enough of a constant annoyance that its almost just not worth wearing it.


Raise to wake is valuable to me, and on the occasion that it fails me and I need to reach my other hand up to turn on the screen, there’s two buttons that are easy to use and hard to accidentally activate, so I don’t lose any value by turning it off.
