Chris Hillyard Gander | 2008 Apr 03 | Shawn's interactive Irish dance workshop at Gander Academy was definitely the highlight of our year. Shawn is a very energetic, talented and enthusiastic individual who has a natural ability to engage and capture the attention of all students regardless of gender, interest or ability. Students and staff thoroughly enjoyed the cross curricular educational workshop and students were stepping their way back to their classrooms after their sessions. The atmosphere that was created at Gander Academy was unbelievable. Students who we never thought would be interested in Irish dance surprised everyone. We are so thrilled that Shawn could bring this program to our school. It was an amazing experience for all. Students are still talking about Mr. Silver and they can't wait for him to visit again at Gander Academy.

Sara Sheehan Grand Falls Windsor | 2008 Apr 01 | Shawn, You are to be admired for your strength and passion. It is so overwhelming to have seen the effect that you had on the Community of Grand Falls-Windsor, from the schools, individual workshops to the party at Kelly's Pub!! My mind is actively planning what is next....my only regret was you leaving. Can't wait to see you again. Much love and respect!!! Provincial Coordinator College of North Atlantic |
Andrea Foote | 2008 Apr 01 | Shawn, I don't even know where to begin. This whole week has been such a blast. I was so impressed by not only your ability but your spirit as well. As sore as my legs are today all I could think was I need to practice! So we'll have to make something happen here in Grand Falls-Windsor so that when I brag to my friends that I've been taught Irish dancing, I'll have more than one routine to show them! :) Thank you so much for bringing Irish dancing to us and I hope to see you again soon. |
Sheila Pomeroy New York | 2008 Apr 01 | "I admire what you are doing since I agree that Newfoundland, with all it's Irish culture, should definately have structured Irish Dance. I am just learning Irish dance here in New York...I kind of woke up and thought, "people actually do this for a living" and thought I'd also love to make my living from dance performance and teaching, and I wanted to write you to say thank you for finally bringing a standardized form of Irish dancing to Newfoundland!...

Randy Street | 2008 Mar 13 | Many kind thanks for the absolutely wonderful workshop you did with the students at our school, Holy Cross, in Eastport. You were a huge hit! This morning we watched a couple of the students in the parking lot practising their foot work. Obviously you made an impression. Randy Street, Vice Principal Holy Cross Elementary |
