In order to be a safe pilot, do it right and get your private license. If you decide to shortcut a little bit, you can get a Light Sport license with restrictions, but if you do, make sure you have a regular instructor. If you get a Light Sport license with a Light Sport pilot, some of those hours won't count toward your private if you ever decide to move toward heavier aircraft.
