WOW IS ALL i HAVE TO SAY (just kidding) I have a lot more!!!!...MDP has been our 2nd family for over 10 years. Both my daughters Presli and Kyli have danced on the MDP Company team over the past 10 years. LET'S START WITH THE TEACHERS AND STAFF--When you walk into MDP you and your children are treated as family and not just a number as i have seen this at other studios. The atmosphere, professional staff/teacher/owners, the children's laughter and pure love that is experienced on a daily basis is priceless. All of the teachers/choreographers are educated, professional and have skills that can't be matched. It is astonishing to me how the teachers come up with the amazing dance routines and teach our children the skills to become the best dancers God has created them to be. Each teacher has taught my children life lessons such as: being on-time, respect, listening skill, challenging themselves to their highest potential, team work, self esteem, discipline and structure, As an adult I know all these things are needed in life to be successful, between home and MDP my children have grown to become amazing girls/women who are very happy and productive in life. NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT THE CHILDREN--I have never seen the bond that these dancers at MDP have with each other anywhere else. The children at MDP are extremely overprotective of each other and consider themselves sisters and bothers. They not only support each other at the dance studio and competitions they support each other during hard times that all children face in school, at home or just growing up. My girls have created bonds that will last a life time, as well as I have with other moms who I now consider my best friends. COMPETITIONS WHOO WHOO--Competitions can be very stressful for not only the parents but the children as well. MDP makes everything easier, they are very well organized all our children and parents are very helpful and very respectful to all children and other company's that are competing as well (trust me I have seen crazy dance families and thank GOD they are not from MDP) because sometimes I might just lose my mind (I take off my MDP jacket at this time) JUST BE NICE!!!!!! TO OUR PROP DAD'S--WHOO WHOO YOU GUYS ROCK. Okay now moving on--LET'S TALK ABOUT MR. AND MRS. BABBS (Erin and Shaun)--Honestly you will not find better studio owners anywhere else you go. These two have been my saving grace from day one, I love them as they are my family. Erin is not only the owner but also a teacher, she has been my daughters Solo choreographer since we have been there and also my daughters second mom (Kyli looks more like Erin then me----hummmm was there a mix up at the hospital). Erin knows each student along with their own unique personality and parent at the studio...trust me there are plenty. She dedicates her entire heart in creating successful human beings/souls that grow up to be incredible productive adults. What you see is what you get with Erin and I wouldn't want it any other way (a true and honest person). MDP is one of the best decisions I have ever made for my daughters Presli and Kyli. If you are thinking about joining (not only a dance studio but a family) MDP is the place for all level of dancers. This is a place for our children to be exactly who they are without judgement. I FEEL BLESSED TO HAVE MDP AS MY FAMILY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND A SPECIAL SHOOT OUT TO MY GIRLS...Jennifer Seitel (the sweet one), Deana Sullivan (my twin), Teri Hadjis (our twin but sweet), Tobie Gonzalez (the spicy one)...Yup this is my crew!!!! MDP YOU KNOW WHOO WHOO.... read more

Where do we begin.. We absolutely LOVE all things Murrieta Dance Project!! From the moment you walk in you are amazed by the beauty of the facility. It is large, their are 6 dance rooms, a café with healthy meal options for your children, several break rooms and so much more. But the best thing about MDP is the dance instruction and the dance instructors. Every one of the dance instructors is fully educated and motivated to help your child grow and develop as an athlete, dancer, performer and as a person! Personally, I have seen tremendous growth in my daughters dancing in just a matter of months. Each instructor brings a different dynamic to MDP and each of their individual teaching styles creates a perfect balance. The talent that lies within the walls of MDP from dancers to instructors is phenomenal! This is a very serious studio but if good quality dance instruction is what you are looking for, this is the studio you want to attend. The studio does require that the kids conduct themselves professionally in the classroom so that all students are able to receive the best training possible, follow proper dress code, and be on time. Be prepared to work hard! This studio does offer a recreational/non competitive program where kids can just train and learn to love the art as well as an amazing competitive program. We personally have been to another local studio and have been a part of their competitive program and MDP by far has well exceeded our expectations. Our decision to join the MDP family was the best decision and we couldn't be more grateful to owner Erin Babbs and the entire MDP staff for all that they do. Thanks for loving our kids and continuing to help them grow! read more

Absolutely LOVE MDP!! This is our second year at the studio and I am truly amazed at the growth I have seen in my children, especially my older daughter. She has always been on the shy side but thanks to the amazing staff and dancers at the studio, she has found her place and has really come out of her shell. The amount of talent walking through the halls is insane and it is a true reflection of the instructors, their passion for the art, their attention to detail and the love they have for their students. Every move has a purpose, every critique is for a reason and every "job well done" is earned and sincere. I love watching my girls dance probably as much as they love doing it and I am grateful there are so many classes offered for their young ages. Erin and her staff run a tight ship which is awesome in my opinion and is teaching my girls to be prompt, responsible, and professional at such a young age. I can honestly say I know my children matter to their instructors and they want to see them grow and develop into strong dancers. They may be little but they matter just as much as anyone else. I can't say enough good things about MDP!! read more

Joining a company dance team is a huge commitment for a family, but after 5 years at Murrieta Dance Project, we would do it all again! Every time I walk through the door, I know my 10 year old daughter is getting the highest level of instruction, discipline, and motivation from the wonderful owner (Erin Babbs) and her incredible teachers! Dancers start at many different levels, but at MDP, they are inspired and guided to believe in their own abilities and talents. As a parent, I am certain that MDP's dance curriculum and design build an intrinsic capability for young dancers to soar!! It is the goal of every instructor to see each dancer reach personal bests, and I am blown away when I see the level of professionalism and commitment at such young ages. At MDP, dancers are well-rounded and encouraged to take all levels of dance, opening up many opportunities for industry and pre-professional dancers. If you are looking for lifelong confidence, beautiful friendships, and experiences that go beyond learning dance steps, you will find it at Murrieta Dance Project. There isn't a better studio in the area. read more

My Family and I Highly Recommend Murrieta Dance Project! My Daughter started dancing at MDP about a year and a half ago. The first thing I noticed as a parent was the instructors dedication and focus to the kids. It was a breath of fresh air to see each and every instructor take the time to correct and teach the right way to do things. My daughter has come a very long way in this short year and a half, her Technique, and her Confidence have improved 110%. The instructors are highly trained and give your kids 100% of there time and focus each and every class. MDP has become a family to us, everyone: teachers, parents and students are so nice and positive to each other. It really feels like you have joined a family. MDP is making Stars!!! My husband and I could not be more Proud of how far our daughter has come so far, and we are so very excited to see her grow over the years here at MDP! So come join our family at MDP you won't be disappointed. read more

My daughter is a new student to Murrieta Dance Project. We absolutely love everything about this incredible studio! The instructors are qualified and educated professionals that care deeply for their students. They are serious about training and pushing all students to their full potential. The owner, Erin Babbs, is dedicated to her staff, students and studio. She works tirelessly and her efforts are seen in every aspect of the studio. My daughter has grown in her confidence, technique and love of dance like never before in the short time she has been here. We are so grateful she is part of such an awesome studio and developing more than ever in her dance instruction. I highly recommend this studio to anyone looking for serious, professional dance instruction for their child. You will not be disappointed. read more

My experience with MDP has been nothing short of AMAZING! My daughter is 11 and has danced with this studio for 3 years. We have found that her dancing has improved and her love for dance has increased by the teachers! We are not what you would call the best dancer but in our expirence she is treated the same as every other dancer and given the same opportunities! I personally have dealt with Erin Babbs (the owner) and have had great conversation with her about the well being of my daughter! Its nice not to be another fish in a very big pond and know she has the attention and concern of those she admires! This is a studio of love, friendship, and great instruction. We love MDP and as long as permitted we will stay with this studio :):):) read more

My daughter has been with MDP competing for 4 years now. She used to compete at a different local studio for years before she had had enough of their belittling and demeaning of her. She was just another number there that never learned the true art of dance. Within her first month at MDP, she improved leaps and bounds (no pun intended). She has flourished as dancer in the four short years she's been there. The instructors are top notch, some of the best in the industry. The genuine friendships she has formed will always have a huge impact on her as well. MDP is by far, the best dance studio in So Cal. If your child is serious about learning the art of dance the proper way, MDP is the place to be. read more

My daughter has been at MDP for 11months now, her only regret is that she didn't come sooner! Since my last review, she has became a member of the company dancers. She is thrilled to be apart of such a structure, passionate and nurturing family! I am so happy that we made the move! I have witnessed her growth before my own eyes! MDP is top notch, I love that there are so many role models! The instructors are so incredible! They teach with such attention to detail, passion and knowledge.... it is obvious they LOVE what they do! It is a wonderful environment, weather you are a recreational dancer or love to compete. Murrieta Dance Project is our home away from home! We love MDP read more

My daughter has been at MDP (on their company team) for the last four years. Before that, she danced at another studio in Temecula where she was nothing but a number and they placed no importance on technique. Once we made the switch, my daughter improved immensely, gained a new sense of self esteem and became part of a loving village where the instructors, staff and parents truly care. My son also started dancing at MDP last year on their all boys hip hop team and he is having a blast! There's nothing better than seeing your kids happy and thriving in a fun and loving environment. We love everyone at MDP and will always consider it our home. read more

My daughter started at MDP this past summer as we had moved from Oregon to California. I cannot believe the growth I have seen in my daughter, both as a person and a dancer, in the past 8 months! The dance teachers are top notch! Erin Babbs is incredible at keeping it all professional and running smoothly. Bey and Deanna (at the front desk) are always very helpful with my MANY questions as a new parent at this studio. I loved the sleepover for the girls to bond before competition and I also like the secret pals. My daughter feels very much a part of MDP. I wouldn't have her dance anywhere else!! Thanks MDP!! Courtney Lercara Daughter- Sage read more

My 3 daughters commute to MDP for classes all the way from Yucaipa. Why? Because the level of training at MDP cannot be beat!! This is simply the best studio! Every single teacher is committed to training their students to achieve their potential whether they are a beginner or advanced dancer! It is apparent their hearts are in it! Not to mention they are so good at what they do! The owner Erin Babbs spends so much time with all things concerning the studio to ensure it is ran efficiently! Her and the entire staff's commitment to excellence is reflected in the studio as a whole! We are so happy we are able to be a part of the MDP family! read more

My daughter is 14 and joined the Murrieta Dance Project studio in August of 2015 after attending their summer camp. She has danced since she was 3, and she had been on a dance competition team since age 7. She fell in LOVE with the dance teachers and the studio. She auditioned and was welcomed to MDP's Company Team. The other children have welcomed her to the studio with open arms. She loves MDP and it's staff. Erin and Shaun, the owners, are easy to work with and truly love their studio and the dancers. Thank you for welcoming Peyton, and thank you for helping her develop! read more

This is my 9 year old's second year at Murrieta Dance Project. She loves it so much. The teachers are some of the best in the industry and I am happy witht the training that my daughter is receiving. My five year old daughter also does classes and loves Ms. Erin's hip hop. The class is fun and Erin does a great job with the girls. You should check out their amazing new studio...it is beautiful and unlike any studio you have ever seen. MDP is a great place for the beginning dancer or the most dedicated competition dancer. You will love it!! read more

Murrieta Dance Project has been a great experience for my daughter who dances & competes there. It is a larger studio with fine attention to detail and has professional superior teaching staff.

I am so happy with the choice we made and my daughter is so grateful and thanks me for taking her to Murrieta Dance Project, she loves it there, we love it there! read more

Murrieta Dance Project is a very professional dance studio. My son has been taking classes here since he was 4 and loves it. They have the most talented instructors that teach with passion and you can tell they love what they do and care about their students. I am amazed at how much my son who is now 7 has learned in the few years he has been at this studio. This is his second year on the Company Team and we both love the camaraderie between the parents and his team members. MDP is a family that we are proud to be a part of. read more

This studio is our extended family. My boys joined this studio two years ago and they have grown tremendously as dancers, with confidence. These instructors care greatly about the craft, but care more about your child. Everyone there from day one, has been inviting and helpful. You get that " the doors are open to the church now", feel. The parents and staff are wonderful. We love their MDP family. Wouldn't have dance any other way! They make you "werk", and enjoy doing it. I take an Adult hip hop class myself! Come join me! read more

Murrieta Dance Project is the best decision we have made as a family. Both my daughters have improved tremendously. Not only is the dancing unique and extraordinary, but my girls have the opportunity to be around the most wonderful role models. Every class my daughters take at MDP....a positive lesson is learned. The technique, performance, choreography is top and professionalism is amazing! We look forward to the future with MDP! I highly recommend you come and experience what it is to be part of Murrieta Dance Project! read more

From the moment we walked through the doors at MDP the love and passion for dance was evident! They welcomed by daughter with open arms and have helped her grow and mature into not only a great dancer but a confident young girl! I am so impressed with all aspects of this studio..the teachers are top notch, the front office staff is warm and welcoming, and the owner Ms. Erin truly loves every dancer as her own child. I could not imagine dancing anywhere else...we have found our "forever home". We love MDP!! read more
