Britney Spears and Kevin Federline attended their first Parenting Without Conflict classes on Wednesday at the Beverly Hills Hotel. They must attend 6 sessions that will teach them cooperative parenting and communication skills and also polite requests.

Before the meeting, a source close to the pop star told Us Magazine that, “Britney is actually really excited about seeing Kevin. She sees this as the first step in them getting along for the sake of the kids.”

In addition to the joint parenting classes, Spears must also complete three individual counseling sessions "to address parenting issues."

Britney, 25, and Federline, 29, are required to show in court Friday for a progress review according to People. Kevin has custody of the children now and Britney has supervised visitation.
