First stall practice today with my CFI

[Mr._Ryan]

and I'm just looking for a little reassurance, as I'm not too excited about doing stalls. I've watched some youtube videos and they seem to be rather tame, actually, but let's just say I'm not much for roller coasters and such experiences. This is the last thing we have to do before he can solo me.

Any thoughts/comments to ease my trepidation?

Stalls are no problem... not like a roller coaster at all.  Just make sure you dont use aileron at all, and if you feel a wing drop, get on the opposite rudder fast.

If your having second thoughts about stalls... you're not going to do well when you start practicing spin recovery.

Stalls, as taught these days, are almost a non-event.

They CAN be quite interesting and educational, if entered aggressively.. but what you'll like do, is be asked to keep pulling back on the yoke until the horn goes off, followed by a very tame dipping of the nose, and loss of altitude...

OH.. and when it's all said and done..

I actually enjoy roller coasters, so take this with a grain of salt...

first, when one of my primary CFIs said (about power-on stalls) "just put your feet on the horizon and hold it there

This is an excellent technique...
