One of the worst ways to learn how to ride a motorcycle is to have a friend or family member teach you. You are better off learning all by yourself.
There is a reason that the BRC classes go step by step pretty much the way @
Misti described. (From what I remember they also have you duck walking around a parking lot before rolling off and picking your feet up.) You learn one skill at a time and build on that skill, once you have learned the skill you add the next still to it.
