How to strengthen your neck to be able to raise it .

Patricia  I’m sure one of the instructors will be able to give you a more technical answer.  However, as a pilates student, I just did it a little at a time, raising for part of the exercise then putting it down.  It took a while and I did have some discomfort at first. I am on the site for three years now and can now lift my head for exercises easily.  There are some great beginner programs on here that may be helpful.  Hang in there! 😀
