I’ve been reading the material here for a while and working on my fitness and inner game. I’m a 39M professional in Ann Arbor, MI.

I’m ready to start approaching seriously, but I’m finding it hard to stay motivated going out solo. I know the standard advice is "just go alone," but I learn faster with a partner who can push me.

For those of you who found solid wings:

  1. Did you find them online or in the field?
  2. Are there specific local communities or "lairs" for the Michigan area that are still active?

If anyone is local (Ann Arbor/Detroit) and wants to link up to practice, shoot me a DM. Otherwise, any advice on finding a community here would be appreciated.
