"Just wanted to say thanx sooo much!!! Your classes are one of the best things I've ever done!!! Considering I'm a guy with two left feet and never danced, my whole life, I feel like I'm doing fantastic!!! I owe most of that to both of you and those who assist you. You both compliment each other sooo well, it really drives your lesson home! The classes are sooo fun and I learn sooo much... I can't believe I was ever nervous. I knew I made the right choice the very first class!!! Also, thanks for coordinating the dances, shoes suppliers and study DVDs! Keep up the great work, and don't ever change a thing. Everything is perfect!!!"

"After several years within the swing scene, Rob and Dawn are undoubtedly the reason why it is still alive in this area. They regularly provide solid instruction and sponsor nationally known dancers to do the same in Orlando. They also support live music by occasionally bringing in musicians to play at the regular dances. Rob and Dawn are kind, hospitable, and are the heart to the Orlando swing scene while ensuring their new and existing students' success in learning to swing dance."

"They have consistently been the driving force of Swing in Orlando. Without Flyin' Footwork Productions there wouldn't be swing dancing in Central Florida. They are the best instructors, making learning to dance fun and exciting. The dances provide a fun and energetic social atmosphere for both advanced and beginner dancers. They make everyone feel welcome, and keep the crowds coming back for more every danced. I can't say enough about them. Rob and Dawn are awesome!"
- Megan Kaczmarek - Posted to The A-List
"Rob & Dawn are terrific teachers; they take it nice and slow for beginners and always add just that little bit extra, or different, for the ones who've already picked up the basics. I love going out to socialize and have fun at their Saturday Whirl & Twirl Swing dances. They're very friendly and make the dance fun. They show you how the dance is great for all ages, for the body and for the spirit."

"Rob & Dawn at Flyin' Footwork are fab-freakin-tastic!! I've taken both public workshops and private lessons from them with a partner who had never danced before in his life. He now loves dancing swing and lindy hop as a direct result of their comfortable and professional teaching style. They really make you feel at ease with getting out on the dance floor, and work with you to bring out the strengths of your own individual dance style. I'm a seasoned dancer, but I benefit from even basic lessons with Rob & Dawn because they help me to fine tune my technique and clean up old habits. If you are looking to get into social dancing for the first time, or just wanting to brush up on moves, Flyin' Footwork is the place to go!!!"

"Very warm and friendly social environment. My favorite!.. dance place in Orlando... Check them out on 2nd and 4th Saturday nights..."
- Alex - Posted to The A-List
"For many years Linda and I have tried taking Swing Dance lessons. We have always found that the method of instruction was complicated, boring, and expensive....in many cases drawn-out to keep you coming back as customers (clients). One night we attended Rob & Dawn's class. By the end of a one-hour class we had learned at least 6 very cool Lindy moves. The class was extremely fun and very well presented. We finally found what we were looking for....and have since learned over 30 Lindy moves Their method of instruction is excellent....and, their price is unbeatable."

"If anyone has ever tried learning swing or Lindy in the Orlando area, but found it difficult, they obviously have never had classes with Rob and Dawn! They are patient, fun, and friendly instructors ready with accurate and helpful tips to share with others. They genuinely love the dance and they love watching people learn it! That is why they do it!"
- Shell - Posted to The A-List
"Rob & Dawn are the best dance teachers in Florida! Their classes are always easy to follow, well-paced, fun and educational! I look forward to every chance I have to learn from them. They show infinite patience with their students and will do whatever it takes to help you learn. I also appreciate all the work they put in to maintaining the best regular swing dances at the Whirl n'Twirl."

"Your friendliness and kindness, especially for a dance teacher I had just met, blew me away."
- Crystal Englert
"After taking the beginning Lindy Hop class from Dawn and Rob, I was hooked! Not only are they great instructors who explain the steps in a clear way that you can understand, they are friendly people who make you feel at ease, especially when I didn't know what I was doing! They always took the time to give extra attention on steps I didn't understand, and kept at it until I got it.
I would highly recommend their class to anyone who is intrigued by swing dance, or ever sat by the dance floor at an event and wished they could participate. Get out there and give it a try, you won't be disappointed by Rob and Dawn!"
- Maria McKee-Gandy
"Rob and Dawn combine technical expertise, a love of dance, and the capacity
to clearly teach both, making the process of learning and dancing a pleasure
for all who study with them."
- Jeff Wirth
"It was October 2005 when I first found out about you and the Whirl & Twirl. I have to tell you that many things changed since then. As a beginner dancer, I have managed to learn east coast swing along with lindy and charleston; I made new friends and plus made my 2nd & 4th Saturday nights much useful. I am grateful to you for all these. Well, I believe it is not only me; many others as well owe you bunch of thanks for your efforts to keep the Swing scene alive..."

"Next, we had the pleasure to meet and see the amazing talents of husband and wife dance team Rob and Dawn Shrewsbury, owners of Flyin' Footwork Productions and frequent patrons, who instead should be dancing on Broadway."
- Lisa Euwer, Orlando Leasure Magazine, March 2004
"Rob and Dawn Shrewsbury of Flyin' Footwork have a way of dancing that is eye-grabbing, without a trace of gratuitous flamboyance. Their dancing is a true INTERACTION with the music, whether it's rolling from a live band on stage, or a beaten-down Juke Box. Lovely people - their spirit comes out in their dancing. A Joy to behold, I love playing for them and their crowd!"
- Kid Dutch - www.KidDutch.com
"...and speaking of touring national acts, swing dancers Rob & Dawn Shrewsbury could be just that. Without resorting to gymnastics beyond the abilities of average humans, and dressed in ordinary clothes, they put on a show that had the crowd applauding while the recorded music was still playing before the band started. Despite the actions of their dancing, they didn't use up the whole floor or intimidate others who wish to dance."
