So we just saw Jalisco, El Sol De La Negra. My name is Aleli Montano. This is Mexican folkorico dance. This is Jalisco typical costume. We talked about turnings, body, the use of your arms, the use of your feet, character shoes. Very important; keep your spirit up and knowing that any type of Mexican folkorico it's really fun to do. It's a really good exercise for those of you who are trying to get yourself exercise, and it's really fun. You learn about a culture, about a specific state and you really use your whole body. It's really good, it's really tough, but it's really, really fun. You're going to have a lot of fun with it. I really, really encourage you to dace Mexican folkorico dance. You could go online if you are looking for more companies where they have presentations. There's the most famous Ballets Folkorico de Amalia Hernandez, which is the most famous in Mexico. You can check it out. You can checkout their webpage or just go and look for costumes if you're looking for costumes. Go online search them. Thank you very much. Again, my name is Aleli Montano.
