• I would like to take this opportunity to give a Thousand thanks to Layla and her manager! Layla your performance, professionalism and your personality made the 1st ever Bridal Shower I have thrown a total success! Even though my guests all showed up late (including the person providing the boom box) your understanding and compassion about the situation helped me relax and your manager saved the day by setting up your own boom box inconspicuously making your performance a pleasant surprise to my guests! My guests had nothing but compliments regarding the performance and raved about the lesson. So here it is 10 stars for you! Thank you sooo much! Betsy -- Betsy R, Bronx, NY, 6/19/2010
• Layla was great. I am Egyptian and have seen many belly dancers over the years, many good and many not so good. Layla was great and her Egyptian heritage shines through. She does a show that includes all the props you could ask for, but most importantly, her underlying dancing technique is very strong and authentic. She doesn't just walk from place to place, every step is filled with action and excitment. She is also very attractive and got along well with our guests. I would definitely recommend her for any event. -- Peter G, New York, NY, 8/21/2010

• Layla was a wonderful dancer and lovely to work with. Because of her Egyptian heritage, she offered suggestions to make the presentation even more authentic and artistic. The most amazing moment of the show was when she did the sword dance, moving gracefully while balancing a sword on her head. It was breathtaking...nobody could take their eyes off of her!

• Layla Taj is awesome. I got her to perform at my wedding and it was great. I was so excited i found an Egyptian belly dancer because I myself am Egyptian and wanted to represent my culture and she did that. She had all of my guests engaged and on their feet, which was great because not all of my guests were Arabic. I would totally recommend her for your event. She is very accommodating and so nice , very pleasant to have worked with her. -- Yasmin B, West Orange, NJ, 7/25/2010
