Use platform pedals. Practice stopping and taking off (or as close as you can come to a stop) without putting your feet down. Then learn to ride a unicycle. Practice riding the bike around in the parking lot very very slowly while waiting on the other guys. Then get clipless pedals. Can't say if it works for everyone, but it worked for me.
