the rigid structure of code's school helps you look at one thing only and work on it.  that's one of the real benfits i think.  on the track the first drill of level 1 (throttle on) changed the way i ride totally.  one of my few life changing events, it was that dramatic.  i was going to run off the track and crash, and was starting to panic, when i remembered what steve (the aust code man) said - "override your brains desire to panic and open the throttle".  i did, it worked.  i've done levels 1, 2 and 3, and at the end of each day i wanted to hug them.  made a massive difference to my ridng on the road - faster with calm confidence and a real love of big twin grunt out of corners.

i still flap my elbows when i do something wrong and panic.

but it depends if you can be told what to do or not.  some people can't handle that, so wouldn't like code.  realistically, if you go to any school to listen intently, accept theory at face value and then try it to the best of your abilty you'll have to learn something.  should be compulsory i think.
