My daughter has been at Layla's Dance and Drum and she has learned a lot. The instructors have provided great instruction and Ms. Anayo is very passionate about dance and it shows with the students. I also like her emphasis on preserving culture. I would still recommend.

My child has been with Layla's Dance and Drum for two years and we have had an absolutely…read morephenomenal experience the entire time. Layla's Dance and Drum studio provides fun, yet challenging classes for my child. Since we have been with the school, I have observed remarkable growth in my child. Ms. Anayo's program has helped to build dedication, discipline and responsibility in my child over the past two years. As a youth Track & Field Champion, athlete and coach, I seek out the best quality extra curricular activities for my child. Layla's Dance and Drum meets the mark, they are top tier. The dance performances are extremely entertaining. I beam with pride when I see my child's capabilities come to life knowing the hard work and training that it takes to prepare for each show. In the past, I have volunteered backstage at shows where teams of parents work hard to make sure that all children are safe, and on time for each performance. Without fail, the dance school owner goes above and beyond. There have been times when I observed her lending extra props and costumes to dancers in order to add to the flare and excitement of the show (free of charge). It is quite evident that she has a heart for our children. I recommend Layla's Dance and Drum with the utmost confidence.

I love the mellow loving atmosphere. No competition and I like that. The owner is so nice and all…read morethe teachers are really good with the kids. Unfortunately there is no website or printed paper schedule so... it's very very very tricky signing your kids up for lessons if your trying to coordinate your family's activity schedule. If you have other siblings activities you will have to sign up for dance first and build all the other activities around this schedule. You don't even know the days until you sign up and they verbally tell you. If your kids want to dance for fun this is a great school. One suggestion for the landlord and all the other store owners on that block of stores: the parking lot drop off pick up situation is horrible and dangerous. There needs to be a single one way in and out of the one lane parking lot, a traffic light or a stop sign would be help and if everyone could stop double parking that would be so nice. I have to park 2 blocks away to avoid the insanity and car accidents. I do love that my kids had fun in a nice environment and learned how to dance. The teachers are very good with the kids and the annual recital is very long but well organized.
