Yesterday, we said farewell to the Teotitlán del Valle, Danza de la Pluma Promesa 2016-2018 guys — and two little gals.
El Día de la Virgen de Guadalupe marked the end of this group’s three-year commitment to dance for their faith and community.
With well over one thousand family, friends, community members, and visitors watching, they danced their hearts out.
And, after the skips, squats, twists, and leaps ended, there was nary a dry eye in the house. It was a fabulous night!

Terrific photos!
Thanks, Alana. I will always have a soft spot for these guys, the two little gals, and their families. However, looking forward to the new group. ¡Feliz Navidad!
Great fabrics!
Textiles rule in Oaxaca!

Thanks, Mary. Can’t wait until the July fiesta!
You captured the energy, Shannon. Great photos.
High praise, indeed! Thanks, Norma. 🙂
What an extraordinary thing to get to see and be a part of.
Yes, it was incredibly special and the two days following, we were honored to be invited to the homes of the two guys we sponsored for their final fiestas.
What a bittersweet celebration it must have been. Kudos to you and Chris for your contribution to this wonderful tradition!
Thank you, Sylvia. And, we plan to continue!
