Cristian Chable aka Caballo and Ricardo Rafael Enriquez.

 

Through ritual dance we will connect body, mind and spirit. Ritual dance is a prayer in movement, where we reconnect with the four elements: fire, water, wind, earth. Dances in the Mayan and Aztec tradition are accompanied by powerful drum rhythms, smoke and the aroma of copal. The dance aims to awaken life-giving energy in us, it is a prayer for the blessing of Mother Earth and Father Sun, for abundance and prosperity.
