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

Another Beautiful Ceremony!!!

Thank you to everyone who made it out to the skate park on Friday and Saturday to honor and celebrate our ancestors with us. Thank you Xihuacoatl for hosting this ceremony once again. The ceremony was beautiful and full of strong energia and love. Thank you to all of our danzantes and their families who spent the night and next day with us. It is so important that these tradiciones continue, and our young people are doing a great job of this. Special thanks to Tere, Alex and Yaya who were there bright and early Friday morning to help set up the altar.
