Thumbs up Motorcycle Training Schools - Eastern WA

Still being relatively new to the state and not knowing whether a school like this is available. I'm interested in enrolling my SO in a school to teach her to ride, not a saftey course, that'll come later, but a full on don't know how to ride type school. Is there anything like this anywhere near the eastern side of the state that comes with a good reputation?

She wants to learn, but not on the Street Glide. If it were 20 years ago I would've taken her out on my old kx250 and let her putt around in the dirt with full armor, but that bike is long gone.

Any suggestions? Back in FL there were schools everywhere with those training wheel doohickies that kept the rider from dumping the bike until they learned the ins and outs.

Default Training Program

I put my wife, mom and the hired help through some of the "Star" program classes
in CDA(Hayden) All liked the course as they all were new riders. Another friend took
a couple of the classes as a refresher even though she has ridden for a number of
years. Classes in Lewiston if you are that far south. All liked the classes.

I see you are in Washington. I am a Motorcycle instructor and had taught a lot of people to ride. are there any off road vehicle state parks by yitour home? they often have classes sponsored by Honda and the MSF program.
