For a class that is supposed to foster a love of music in young children, the environment was far too harsh. After speaking with other moms, I've learned that our negative experience was not an isolated incident; many have had similar issues. That is one reason I felt I needed to write this post. If you are looking for a positive and encouraging environment for your child's musical education, I strongly recommend looking elsewhere. Our time at Musical Beginnings was a regrettable experience that we will not be repeating.

The annual search for that perfect Mother's Day gift led us to Queen Amina's shop. As we entered,…read morewe found the queen holding court alongside her king. "Sister Amina!" I called out. She welcomed us inside. As we looked around, we knew our quest was over. Sister Amina quickly understood our mission. She asked how old our special mother was and then suggested a perfect gift. We made a cashless exchange that felt like we were getting away with something special. The quality of the items far exceeded their price. Sister Amina has been a beloved merchant in Leimert Park for almost 20 years and is one of the last two vendors still serving the Leimert Park Village. When I asked her how she would describe her shop, she told me it was an experience. Her store features designs that merge elements of the African Diaspora, bringing together influences from West and East Africa, as well as America. So, on your next quest for a gift for your Queen or King, be sure to stop by Queen Amina's. And don't forget to tell her that Brother Omar sent you!

I said I will come by your business Thursday so we can resolve the matter. Mind you this is over $43.06 a month later. That's not the customers fault if your machine wasn't working properly.
