  • Absolutely Amazing Woman and teacher and performer. Everyone should try her clases. -- Sherrie G, Frankfort, KY, 2/4/2011
  • We really enjoyed Safiya's performance at my best friends Wedding Reception. She went above and beyond our expectations, she is a beautiful dancer and very personable. Her costumes were very ornate and elegant and her music selections for the reception were perfect. I would definitely recommend her if you are interested in a classy, well thought out and family oriented entertainer. -- Micheal W, Lexington, KY, 7/31/2011
