and say it all together, nice and quickly, so that it is fun to say.
(otherwise know as the "Mexican hat dance") from Jalisco
Juan Carlos Chaurand and Whitney Boyd: closest dancers to the camera.
Jarabe (from Michoacán) - notice the traditional bare feet - and the segmented floor over concrete.

New rebozos and hats.
Looks like a hard day at work.
