Let us know how it went Mimi!
I learned to ride clipless on (of all bikes to learn on!!!) my mountain bike way back in 1999! My first few rides I had "badges (more like scabs) of honor!
But now, 8 years later . . . I wouldn't ride my mountain or road bike without them! They have become so second nature that I can (literally) unclip while falling then jump off my bike and land on my feet unscathed!
Ok with that said watch me fall tomorrow on my mountain bike ride! . . . I better find some wood to knock on!

That's some skill Susan, I only went as far as manage unclipping while falling and landing my foot on the ground. SadieKate is 100% right though, if you zombify yourself " I will fall, i will fall" then it will definately happen, at least it did to me. As most of my falls that happened while learning, happened because I was scaring myself.
