What is FOLKLÓRICO? ​ 

Folklórico (folk-lori-co)​ is an authentic expression of a culture and it embraces its traditions, legends, myths, music and art, transmitted generation to generation.
The costumes and the music reflect the living cultures of their regions, respectively.
​The elements of Mexico’s culture are combined together to produce a language of movement, rich traditions and the merging of two strong elements; Indigenous and Spaniard.
