Directors Message

Welcome to Lay School of performing arts, Nanded. The staff and I are looking forward to an exciting year full of dance, music, drama opportunities, challenges, and fun!

The academy’s vision is to identify, nurture, train and mentor those who want to pursue a career in the various performing arts, or those who pursue an art form for the sake of personal joy and satisfaction.

The Lay’s school of performing arts focuses on strengthening the fundamentals within students i.e. the basics of Dance, melody, and rhythm. For this, we use a holistic approach – in addition to the regular classes, we have theory lectures, appreciation sessions, practice aides, and special classes by visiting artists. Apart from the regular classes, a senior teacher conducts a mentoring session at least once every quarter and works individually with students to hone their skills. Now we have started providing training through distance learning for the students outside Maharashtra.

By competing in regional and national competitions we differ from others. The only part-time institute in Nanded which provides all these courses under one roof.

I welcome you to view our website and I invite you to visit our beautiful campus and facilities. Schedule a tour, observe a class, or attend a performance. Your interest in Lay School is appreciated and we would like to hear from you. I hope to see you soon at our institute.
