: I would rate personal instruction well above buying a book or tape IMHO.

I had a good instructor who showed a great Tape (Grace under pressure) during class. The body movements make alot more sense if you can see them in slow motion and from underwater. For my learning style, I got more from the tape. Others in class got more from the instructor. For $30 it's a good start or great addition to your instructor.
