Aztec Dance
These initiatives help young people enhance self-expression and creativity, develop multicultural appreciation, provide exposure to arts, and develop skills in crafts, visual, performing and literary arts. The Dance represents the eternal search of man for cosmic harmony and integration, both of his body and his spirit, and all the chants of Aztec Dance ritual refer to this essential process. The dancers are clothed in elaborate traditional outfits made of colorful embroidered cloth and animal skins, often adorned with polished stones or mirrors and accessories made of shells and seed pods.The women wear highly decorated skirts or tunics, and the men sport a type of loincloth, or “maaxtlati“.Most impressive are the headdresses, or penachos, made of feathers of pheasants, eagles or other birds, which in movement provide a mesmerizing effect to the movements of the dance. Come and partake in the symbolism of Aztec Dance!
