Night Out in the Parks in partnership with Son Monarcas presents the program "Nahui Ollin Aztec Dance!" FREE & All Ages Welcome! Come and experience ancient pre-Colombian traditions of Central Mexico with Nahui Ollin. Follow them as they showcase the living traditions of Mesoamerica through Aztec and Mayan music, dance, and storytelling. Lively and dynamic, the dancer's movements represent and honor elements found in nature, totem animals, deities, and sacred actions. Both ritualistic and spiritualistic, program highlights include authentic attire and indigenous music instrumentation, traditional songs, and stories. Nahui Ollin means Four Movements in Nahuatl, the original language of the Aztecs. It refers to the perpetual movement of the universe, integrating and reintroducing the wonderment of the four directions of the cosmos. This show also explores how we are all connected with this ancient culture through food, language, people, places, and words we all use.
