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

Thank you to everyone who made it out to the ceremonia this weekend in honor of our children!!! All of your energia, fuerza and love are definitely appreciated. Thank you to all of our dedicated danza parents and familias for their help with the food, set up, water, donations, clean up, rides etc. Mexikas, thank you for your energia and danzas with us in the circle. A special thank you to those that traveled from out of town to be with us, as well as those from outside of our Mesa. We couldn't have had such a beautiful day without all of your contributions. Thank you. Gracias. Tlazokamatli.
