Narrative:
During the takeoff roll for circuit training, the student pilot, who hadn't flown for a few weeks, over-corrected the initial yaw. The instructor's attempts to correct were resisted despite calling several times to take over. During this exchange, the starboard wing impacted the ground, causing aircraft to overturn.
