My partner Allie and l learned a lot about La Danza at the presentation. It was obvious you and Shannon took great pains to tell the story, and in a most complementary fashion. Your pride and love for these village people shone through. I liked the footnote that no kid stepped forward to play Cortez. Mucho gracias to you both. Ian
Gracias! Glad you enjoyed the presentation. However, I have to stress that we have barely scratched the surface to this dance and the culture from which it comes. The more I learn the less I know... It just gets better the more we experience.
Good luck! Make sure you don't actually start at 5, hehe ;)

Gracias! It went well, but the fun was in preparing for it, all the trips to Teo.
