Dismounts and mounts for newbies

I just started racing this summer; mostly crits. Im thinking about trying a few cross races this year with my commuter (80's trek tourer) just for kicks. The problem is i have no confidencewith dismounts and mounts, especially I am short and have short legs. How should i practice, and also overcome my fear of crushing my gonads on a bad mount. ALso how much lower should the saddle be set relative to regular road setup.
