Martin,
Why would you want to pay to learn when virtually every club offers to teach free??

I belong to a great club with an abundance of members who are more than willing to buddy cord with those new to the sport.

My problems are:
Making a schedule work that includes all the obvious variables:
my schedlue (I operate a business alone and work late, open on weekends), the instructor's schedule, the weather, etc.
Different Instructors with different philosophies for training.
To much time between sessions, feel like I'm starting over with each trip to the field.

My goal is to close the office for 3 or 4 days, pray for good weather, maximize training time and hopefully come home ready to solo and work toward the next skill level. Then I only have to worry about my schedule and the weather.
