My daughter has been dancing with Ballet Folklorico Mexicapan since last October. My sister Elizabeth danced with the troupe for many years, until she married and moved out of state. The group performs many of the different folkloric dances from various states of Mexico. They are directed by Alex De La Cruz, who has been teaching these folkloric dances for over 20 years. They recently had a performance at a South Mountain Park for underprivileged children. I took this opportunity to record these beautiful images. As many of you may notice, most of the pictures are of my daughter. I am delighted that she has taken an interest in folkloric dancing. It gives me an opportunity to teach her more about some of our heritage. Natalie dances songs from three states. Nuevo Leon which dances are performed in the black, white, and red outfit; Chiapas which are performed in the white, purple, and green outfit with the pink reboso; and Jalisco which are performed in the green multi ribbon outfit with the pink reboso. I think she just looks so beautiful in each of her outfits. I hope you enjoy these pictures as much as I did taking them.
