Kalpulli Itzkuauhtli Danza Azteka is a traditional dance group, founded December 18, 2003 as a part of the Mesa Quinto Sol.


Our primary goal is to ensure that the knowledge preserved for us by our ancestors is not lost, and that a new generation continues on, able to transmit this information to their children.


To this end all of our dancers participate in traditional ceremonies throughout the US and Mexico, learn traditional songs and learn to construct the regalia and instruments used in this tradition.


We enjoy performing within our communities to let our gente know that these ways are not dead, they continue to grow and thrive and that the information is out there for those who would like to learn more.


All ages are welcome to learn… No charge to participate…Practices are Monday/Wednesday...For more information contact Citlalin @ (916) 459-6334

Danza at Chico State

Tomorrow afternoon we'll be heading out to Chico State to offer a few danzas for an event hosted by MEChA de Chico State in honor of Dolores Huerta. I'm looking forward to it because Chico has been trying to get us out there for about two years now, but the dates they want always coincide with ceremonia or other events. Plus one of our danzantes, Marissa, left in the fall to attend college there and it'll be great to see her again and share a few danzas with her. Thank you to everyone who will be taking the trip out there with us.
