right. So wouldn't the Sports Chalet instructor that was great be a better choice than one that happened to work out of a long term LDS and sucked?
My point was that choosing simply based on large chain/small store is not the way to go. Ok, maybe your odds would be better at the small store, but I don't think going with the odds makes any sense when there's better ways to choose. As you said yourself, "That's why the questions mentioned above are a great idea."
Perhaps I worded something wrong. I wasn't entirely disagreeing with ya. Just pointing out that at those stores, it's not uncommon to see less experienced instructors. I even stated in my post that there is still one sport chalet I would go to for instruction.....just one. :cool2:
