DD is 10YO and has ben taking pitching lessons with a local instructor since June. She's from our town and has loose ties to our town TB program. Note that some but not all pitchers in the TB program go to her for lessons. We (DD and I) have made the decision to switch to IR and will be going to see a certain IR guru located 4 1/2 hrs away once a month moving forward. But since the PC is in town I'm sure we will run into her through the TB organization in the future.
I have already dropped a hint at the last lesson that I'm interested in and have been reading on the IR delivery (although I didn't use that term I demonstrated it instead). She stated shes more of a traditional pitching instructor. An email was sent for the winter session sign ups and she followed up with a text to me to see if I was going to reserve a time slot for my DD. We have 2 more prepaid lessons with her and I plan on telling her in person that I'd like to try a different direction than she is teaching, but I'm looking for advice on how to do it without insulting her / her method of teaching.
Has anyone left a PC and was able to do it gracefully? I need help here. Not sure what to say without causing bad feelings.
