My initial reply is simply no, but, then I actually sat down to think about it. Like so many things in this lifestyle, the initial answer isn't always the only answer. I wanted to explore my immediate reaction, because it bothered me. It was a knee jerk reaction, one that only took my pride into consideration.
So, I looked at it in another way. Could I think of any times where being trained by someone other than Master would improve my service to Him? Is there a circumstance where Master would encourage me to seek out training from someone else?
If Master decided He wanted something in my arsenal, so to speak, that He did not know about, He might tell me to seek out training elsewhere. One thing that came to mind was formal dinner service. I was trained in this discipline many years ago, a very rudimentary training. It isn't something I have ever used, but it is part of my training. If knowing I can perform this duty well and correctly, even if I don't use the skills, gives Master pride, I would gladly find someone who knows this skill and refine my knowledge.
Leather care is a big one. If I didn't know how or wasn't sure how to care for leather goods or leather garments, I am sure Master would have me seek out training in doing it from someone who knows.
There are many things I have taught myself with this lifestyle after my initial training. The advances in the Internet and the exchange of information has been a great tool in learning. If I did not use the Internet to learn on my own, perhaps Master would have me seek out training elsewhere.
Is my self-teaching through online means actually training by others in a way?
I think the key to others training an owned girl in anything is the girl taking what she learns and applying those policies to her Owner and how He wants to be served. That adaptation is key.
