The Apple trick is awesome!!! It works!! Although it took a week to practice the right technique. I learnt it very fast. Thank you ma'am!!

Dear Dansique I already knew all of this tips and actually I don't do make the mistakes you talk about in this video but I still get pain on my neck. While I do your routine I feel my core working fine and I can do easily all of them but I do really need to rest my neck or on my arms (kind of awkward, but it works) or Lately I used a yoga block just to support my neck. Thanks for your help any way :)
