Mi Danzante Azteca Favorita

Burning copal is a very important element of any Aztec performance that includes a cleansing and dancing. No matter how often I see these danzantes, I'm always left speechless. I always say to myself that I want to join a group and learn how to dance but it hasn't happened. And when it does, I'll think twice about posting any photos. I like to think that there was a possibilty of having Aztec members in my family tree, so anything that has to do with the culture amazes me; so much that I tattooed the word on my body. Soon I'll take a photo of it.
