Rich, conventional wisdom is that the practice of teaching stall/spin training caused more accidents, therefore it was removed from the PPL syllabus.

All you get is a demonstration with the admonition, "don't do this". The syllabus deliberately warns against teaching a student how to spin or practice a recovery apart from the "dancing on the rudder to pick up a dropped wing" BS.

I had to sign up for aeros to get taught to spin and recover. Still rusty on the process because there isn't an acrobatic aircraft for training within 100 miles of where I live.
