History
The Ballet Folklorico Mexico Azteca of Saint Finbar
is located in Burbank, California and is one of the city's most successful dance programs.

Director Amy Navarrete organized the group in 1987 with only six members which has now flourished to 53.
The members' ages range from 3 years old up to 35 years old.

Since Folklorico, having originated in Mexico, was new to this city, it took some time for the group to grow and
flourish.  As membership grew, the costumes improved, the props became more enriched, and the choreography
evolved into the more elaborate and challenging movements the group presents today.

Each member, and their family, bring a personal touch and creativity to the Folklorico experience which engage
audiences by the deep-rooted culture being expressed in every movement each dancer executes.
Mexico Azteca participates in
celebratory events at area malls,
theme parks, local schools, parks
and churches.  The group regularly
 entertains at annual events such
as Saint Finbar's Catholic Church
Fiesta as well as both the Burbank
and Glendale parades.
Most notable events are the
Disneyland Park, Magic Mountain
Park, Connect with your Community
City of Burbank, Los Angeles Feria

Griffith Park, Dodger Stadium's  
Fiesta Night and Knott's Berry
