Bella's Mom
My daughter has recently started weekly private lessons. The coach sat down with me, laid out why she thought Bella would benefit, set a timeline so we all knew it was a temporary situation rather than long term, and explained the cost, benefits, potential drawbacks. I was very impressed with her professionalism and thoroughness.
For our family and my daughter, it is a good situation. We are using private lessons as a motivator and relationship builder. Bella is working on some uptraining and also leadership skills because her coach wants to mold those. The lessons will be until move ups in a month or two at which point Bella moves up to the L3 team. That will be the end of them.
I feel she gets excellent instruction in her regular training times so that's not why we do them. But the training time is used to perfect the L3 routine and just a bit of uptraining right now. It fits our situation and Bella looks forward to the one on one time with her coach. It makes her feel special and helps keep her attention grabbing behaviors at a minimum during class times.
