So Ive been learning 1a for about a month now, and I still want to keep  
Learning 1a, but I’ve found myself wanting to start with 5a as well. Should I wait until I’ve mastered all the standard 1a tricks, or should I begin with 5a and continue with both? Thanks.

I would make sure you have a basic understanding of 1A but if you feel like you want to go try 5A, do it! 🙂

I think you can start whenever, but it does help to have a good understanding of 1a to learn 5a
