Mixteco Ballet Folklorico
Mixteco Ballet Folklórico is dedicated to the research, preservation and education of Mexican customs, traditions and culture through the art of music and dance. Founded in 1992, our goal is to provide Houston area youth with cultural activities that are rewarding and increases artistic awareness within the community. Group directors, Jose Sada and Rosalia Chapa, emphasize mental and physical discipline while adding unique styles of choreography to the traditional folkloric dances. Mixteco is a three-time Grand Champion for 2015, 2016 & 2018's "Competencia Folklórica de Texas" held annually in Corpus Christi, TX. Since its formation in 1992, Mixteco has had overwhelming success throughout Texas and Mexico by performing at various events and dance competitions.
We proudly represented Houston in various competitive dance events in and around the Houston area as well as throughout the United States and abroad. Internationally, Mixteco has traveled to Macedonia in 2012, Puerto Rico in 2015 and Peru in 2019. In December of 2013, our group made a historic visit to the People's Republic of China. The group had much success and performed as part of the Sister City Association in the Opening Ceremony of a week-long event.
