I'm sure most people will agree with me that this is a topsy turvy way to think about riding fixed..
learn how to control your bike with the back up of a brake first, then once you have sufficient ability lose the brake if you think you should (I can't think of a good reason why but that's another debate).
I'm glad you are getting a brake.
