Highly recommended! Upscale Quality programs for all ages. My son and my daughter were enrolled for 10 years day one in 1998. My son and daughter are now 31 years old and 26 years old. My children also worked as teen counselors for several years. I was extremely satisfied with their services and professionalism. Thank you for always going the extra mile for my children, The N E W Facility in Atlanta, GA and College Park is phenomenal. Congratulations for being Accredited with Quality year after year. You and your supportive staff deserve it! My experience was impactful also because i was engaged and volunteered. I saw how passionate, driven and hands the CEO Ms Tayo was over the years and very impressed. This is the prefect private day school, preschool and performing arts center for children ages 2 to 12th grade arts and education.

Wow! I am so impressed with all the programs for preschoolers and my child who attends elementary. I am a Educator. An Accredited Preschool was a plus for me. It set the program apart from my search and narrowed it down. I love the fact that there are so many programs for my children to learn without me having to run all over town fighting Georgia traffic. I hated rushing from preschool to tumbling by 6:00pm. I was one of those parents who was always late, not a few minutes, really late. I enrolled based do the website and the wealth of information they provided also for me as a parent. Again as an Educator I understand the importance of Fine Arts integrated with Academics. The virtual tour was online which gave me what I needed. Thank you Ms. Reed. Thank you to the staff who were so nice at orientation. I wish i could give this organization 10 stars. I am happy I saw the website on Google during my search.

My girls have been dancing at Tayo Reed Studio for 2.5 years. When they started they did not know anything about dance. Under the direction of Ms. Tayo, my daughters have really flourished in the artistry of dance. My husband and I love to watch them perform. Ms. Tayo is very flexible and understanding of parents schedules and does her best to accommodate our needs. She has really taken our girls under her wings and as a result in their first competition, they won four 1st places trophies. Thank you Ms. Tayo and staff!!

My sons have been attending Tayo Reed’s Performing Arts Center & Preschool Academy since the ages of 1 and 2 years old. They are now 3 and 4 and they have learned so much in both the academic and performing arts. My boys use both sides of their brains, which allow them to do things most kids their ages are not doing. My boys know things that are beyond what is required from them by the Georgia Milestones. Tayo Reed Performing Arts Center has the highest Accreditation given by Georgia. Besides academic and performing they also learn about who they are, how to be extraordinary in everything they do, they learn character, discipline and everything else they need to know to prepare them for their next step. I will recommend Tayo Reed’s Performing Arts Center & Preschool Academy, the Director is 100% passionate in what she do, and she also love and care for all the kids as if they are her own. They have done an excellent job in educating my boys.

Congratulations! Winning Top 1st Place at the Georgia International Convention Center today. I had to write a review because I am so impressed with the performance and the professionalism. And congratulations also to Ms. Tayo Reed and to the entire Tayo Reeds Performing Arts Center for becoming accredited with quality 2017 - 2020. This is incredible and well deserving. I recommend the Preschool and Afterschool Programs because the teaching, the love, the discipline really helps children grow! My life was impacted with the customer service.

I’ve known Tayo Reed for 20 years. She is dedicated to the elevation of our children spiritually, educationally, culturally and in the performing arts. She even trained my granddaughter years ago who is now a college student and still fondly remembers the experience. Your children will be in excellent hands when you enroll them in Tayo Reed’s Performing Arts Academy!

My daughters danced with Tayo over 15 years ago. They attended summer camp consequently for several years. They were taught several styles of dance and performed in countless recitals. The experience was rewarding for both of them. As a parent, I am a firm believer that exposer is everything. My oldest daughter even taught a few classes at Tayo Reed’s International. That same daughter, now dances for a living and is currently performing on Broadway. She contributes a lot of her dance experience to Tayo who helped her develop her love for the art. Tayo is a fantastic teacher. She is definitely talented and quite patient with her students.

My daughter is 24 years old. She took dance classes for 6 years at Tayo Reeds Performing Arts, when she was 7 years old to about 13 years old. She would come home all the time and tell me about Miss Tayo inspiring stories from never give up to how she wanted to bring the best out of my child. Whenever I would be late picking her up from dance class which was frequently I was always greeted with a smile signing her out at the front office. I am proud to say I am still greeted with a smile years later, when I pick up my grandson who is enrolled in the preschool academy of the arts. This is the second generation. My daughter said, Ms.Tayo has a preschool, and she knew where she was going to send her son to get the best love,the best teaching, and the best inspiration because she gave it to her. I highly recommend all the programs to all parents.

Ive had THE WORSE experience ever! The whole school year every event was cancelled. For the end of the year recital we had to pay 400 dollars for customs ( THAT WASNT WORTH 400 DOLLARS) and we were lied to about the parents receiving two free tickets. Got to the recital and everyone INCLUDING KIDS had to pay 20 dollars each. The SUMMER CAMP is such an inconvenience! Having to provide breakfast, lunch, and snacks AND having to leave my job early because my child has to be picked up BY FOUR OCLOCK!! Ive explained my hardship and was told to withdraw my child and for them to stop charging my card for the WEEKS that she hasnt been there, I have to come in to fill out an emergency withdrawal form and pay 100 dollars. This is by far the worse experience Ive had and wouldnt refer anyone here! They are money hungry 👎

Its a great place for young people to learn and grow. Ms. Tayo and her staff are firm yet loving. They push the students to do their very best. And there is nothing more exciting than the end of the season show. Watching the kids perform and show off their talent is a priceless reward for all of their hard work.

My daughter attends the afterschool program. Ms. Tayo and her staff truly care for the kids and their progress in the program. Staff can continue to work on proper communication, however my daughter loves it. They are always doing different activities and what Ms. Tayo does does come recital time is truly magical.

Every time I see a child from Tayo Reeds Performing Arts Center and Preschool Academy of the Arts I see excellence. The preschool program is fantastic. To see 2-4 year olds being able to memorize and recite Martin Luther Kings I Have A Dream speech, is outstanding and I would recommend any child to enroll in any of their programs! It is worth it!

My daughter, Jordan A. Pope started dancing at Tayo Reeds Performing Arts Center when she was seven years old. She attended summer camp first then I enrolled her in the fall session. I remember Ms. Tayo asked her to do a tap dance that they did at summer camp to determine which level to place her in. She was impressed that a seven year old remembered the piece, she placed her with the advance students. Ms. Tayo saw something in her and from that day forward, she pushed her to be great. There she learned many disciplines such as ballet, jazz, hip hop, lyrical, african, modern, pointe, and country line dancing. She is now pursuing a BFA in Dance at Alabama State University.Ms. Tayo has a such a sweet spirit and she loves the kids and pushes them to be the very best they can be. She is passionate about dance and it shows. I have watched Tayo Reeds Performing Arts Center grow so much over the years. When my daughter started she was at C. H. Gullatt Elementary School. Then we transitioned to the studio in Union City. Now God has blessed her to an even greater territory in Riverdale. I highly recommend Tayo Reeds Performing Arts Center.
