About Us

Danza Azteca Taxcayolotl is an Aztec dance group that is dedicated to preserving and nurturing ancient Mesoamerica knowledge. Our goal is to preserve the sacred traditions left behind by our ancestors while sharing this cultural knowledge as a way of fostering unity and connections between all cultures. La Danza Azteca celebrates cultural diversity by exploring common links that bring and connect people together in a celebration of movement, art, death, and life. Using intricate dance steps turns, and jumps, we evoke the energy that intern creates positive energy. Drums, seed pods, flutes, mandolins, and other Mesoamerican instruments unite to create a mind-expanding experience that reflects the cultural heritage of Mexico as well as North and Central America. Our group offers cultural and artistic presentations and educational workshops for all ages.
