Shawns instruction and critiques inspire me. He characterizes mistakes and errors as opportunities for improvement. Work on fulfilling the opportunities for improvement is balanced just right with his wonderful since of humor.

Shawn Swaithes is an amazing dancer and instructor. He knows how to modify his instruction to bring out the best in his students. His competition students have often won world championships or been in the top five in their category. What I like best is that he makes his lessons fun but encourages each student to be their best. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their dancing skills and those that just want to enjoy the gift of dancing!
