Ballet Folklorico Azatlan is a performing group and presentations are conducted in a professional manner with emphasis on showmanship, choreography, footwork, and body style. The costumes are beautiful, yet traditional, from the headpieces down to the shoes. This is not a Folklorico that simply allows its dancers to jump around on stage looking silly; it is a group that emphasizes entertaining the audience with stage presence from entrance to exit in a professional manner.

• Nayarit – One of our most popular presentations where the girls balance glasses of water on their heads while dancing and using intricate skirt movements
