Also if you can, before startinng the car put it into first gear or reverse (which ever you need to move out) first, then start the car. If you a have little bit of clutch bite it should not jerk you out. Give it a try if you need to drive the car to the shop.
I had to drive it home like this at a red light turn the car off put it in first then start the car then go lol

Also, as the clutch wears down you may need to adjust the clutch pedal stroke. I had to do this recently on my Prelude, I could press the pedal down to the floor and the clutch wasn't fully disengaging making it hard to shift gears.

You're going to eventually have to replace either the master cylinder or slave cylinder or both. Air got it, and fluid got out somehow.

Good to hear! Either the slave or master cylinder may be going out or you may have a leak that caused that so be prepared incase.

Look on the inside of the car at the firewall, your master clutch cyl might be dripping fluid. It's a common honda problem....
