Honestly, for a beginner, I wouldn't recommend NASS. They ride unnecessarily aggressively and don't focus of safe riding technique.
That being said, if that's the sort of thing you are into, then by all means, head along, but be warned, there is quite a lot of testosterone and "showmanship" flying around at the meet ups for NASS .
I would be keen to ride with a few learners who want a slow pace, no pressure ride.
