We love our students! They inspire us, they challenge us, they make us laugh and smile. But most importantly, they are each wonderful, unique individuals getting ready to go out into the world and make amazing things happen! That’s why we are highlighting one of our amazing students every month.

This month's featured student is Layla!

Ms Susie, Layla’s teacher, reflected on Layla’s amazing first few years of piano study:

“She is an extremely hard worker, she even helps to create her own practice goals each week! She is wonderful and such a joy to have as a student because of her curiosity, dedication, and creative side. She even comes in with her own compositions and then performs it for me! I can't wait to see where Layla's musical journey takes her.“

And she has a musical family, too! Layla’s sister, Natalie, and cousin, Zac, also play piano. They all even played a trio together in the fall of 2022!
