My daughter Caitlyn loves her dance classes at Te Ori Mana Polynesian Dance Studio. The staff and students are always very friendly and welcoming. This dance studio is truly the best! We greatly appreciate the countless hours that the instructors spend teaching their students. Thank you for giving my daughter such an inspiration along with motivation to be part of an extraordinary dance studio.

TOM was my first official introduction to dancing Polynesian dance! They teach traditional Hula & Ori Tahiti. What I love the most is that they teach the history and meanings behind choreography and songs we sing/chant. ALSO, they bring in Kumu’s and Ori masters from Hawaii and Tahiti. We get to collaborate with our sister studios from these islands too! There are just so many opportunities to indulge in island culture right here in Murrieta! I’ve been with the studio since 2021, and I’ve loved every second of it.

I tried out 4 Polynesian Dance Studios before choosing Te Ori Mana to stay with. Even though it’s a much farther drive for me than the others-I learned new moves, was pushed and had so much fun in my trial class that I had to go back! They’re organized, the energy was contagious and they welcomed me with open arms. They have great choreography, performance opportunities and classes for all ages/levels - as long as you have a desire to learn and a love for dance and culture. I would highly recommend Te Ori Mana and the Ohana they’ve created to anyone. 🙂

Fantastic place with great people. Love this atmosphere and how kind the instructors are! Kumu is coming and can only wait to meet him. The owner has huge connections to Tahiti and the Polynesians so it's refreshing to have real culture come to the studio and teach us about their ways of life.

This studio has the most family like atmosphere I have ever experienced. When I started at this studio I had freshly moved from Florida to california. The people I’ve met here have become long term friends and relationships in my life. Of course while I was learning a bunch of new dances and skills which is all so much fun, I also sort of formed a new family which I love.

My daughter started a few months ago. Let me tell you that Te Ori Mana is a wonderful place. My husband was taking my daughter the first couple of weeks and when I showed up they knew me and my name before I knew them. Everyone is so welcoming and the instructors are so amazing. I love how the girls do not have the pressure to be the best, look the best. Everyone is family. One big happy OHANA!
My husband makes fun of me because I can’t wait for dance on Tuesday and Thursday because I get to be with my Ohana. “Ohana means Family”
Te Ori Mana teaches not only just the dances, they also teach the class the culture, and the Languages of the Polynesian and Tahitian cultures. 🌺🌺🌺

Uncle Roger and his group were so amazing. They came early and set up and made adjustments to the hot weather and unforeseen circumstances. Very professional and easy to work with. Their dance group are well trained and offer a wide variety of cultural dances. I will definetely be adding my kids to their studio of dancers in the near future. I Definetely recommend their services to anyone looking for a beautiful, world class entertainment group to bring joy, happiness, elogance, and excitement to any celebration of any kind. Call and ask for uncle Roger. He gonna take care of you. Mahalo🤙
