Jeff,
My daughter had little interest in riding, until she attended the Dirt Bike safety school course. She responded well to the instruction and really liked riding after that.
Part of it is getting dad out of the initial learning process.
After that, most of my coaching is to reassure her that "she can do it". As soon as she is past the mental part it goes well.
At 11 she can get around the loops at Jones creek on a TTR90 even when it is a bit wet and slippery.
