Traditional dancing is massive in Guatemala and other countries in Central America such El Salvador where the above documentary clip is from (El Salvador,”La Huella Prehispánica”, Documental). The more I discover about folkloric or traditional dancing, the more you see the links with our own traditions and cultures that have become more and more submerged.
For example, here’s a clip of Morris dancing from my own backyard in Hackney, London, showing a fascinating resemblance to the dancing in El Salvador. Thanks to cuzcatleco76 for the wealth of video on El Salvador.
