Mission Statement

Mexica Tiahui Ballet Folklórico is a non-profit organization at California State University, Bakersfield, whose primary goal is to preserve the history, art and culture of Mexico. Mexica Tiahui promotes cultural diversity through the art of Mexican folk dancing. Performances are given throughout Bakersfield and the outlying areas. Such performances are given to elementary, middle and high schools and community centers throughout Kern County.

These presentations allow children and adults to enjoy the richness of the Mexican culture through traditional dance. It is our hope to entertain, enlighten and share with the general public the traditions of old Mexico.
