I think my thoughts do go right along with Regina's.  There needs to be a balance.  However, I think of the word balance not to mean  a 50/50 relationship, but one that has just the right amount of each to do the job effectively.  So I guess in my vision, it is not so much like a seesaw, but more like a recipe where you need a little of this and a little of that.  And like a recipe, the amount of each ingredient changes depending on your mood, guests, or pallet.  Changes will be made each time you try a new lesson.  In fact, I feel that if you are not adjusting your lessons, you are not truely engaged in the learning process.
