Dance Performance | Ballet Folklórico Mexicano de Yale | TEDxYale 

As a dancer of folklorico I’m really disappointed

this does not represent the dance of folklorico well at all

Cuando bailen no se les olvide sonreir el carisma nos caracteriza como mexicanos

Wow. Just wow. I clicked on this expecting something great and professional since they were showcasing our traditional dances from Mexico on TED. So bad. All of it. From the maneuvering of the skirts, to the footwork...regardless how many years you’ve been dancing you know that if you’re performing you fake that smile if you have to. It was just poorly executed and embarrassing that non-dancers had to see this. Representing what us real dancers do for a living...I’d like to know who these entertainers were, if they’re actually in a ballet folklorico group? Next time, if your “dancers” aren’t ready please don’t throw them to the lions. I was dying when that second performer came out and danced Veracruz. Omg, the dead eyes and no smile. Wow. It was actually scary.

as a folklorico myself.... eek they werent very traditional

Loved it, but needs more spirit. I was performing last night with my company and for Veracruz there was non stop gritos and it was such a fun dance. But it's not my part to criticize

This is a nice beginner version. My suggestion as a teacher of this, the young man needs a little more oomph in his personality in this dance. More flirting and closer in some spots would be nice. She needs to hold the hat by the middle part and hold it slightly behind her head at the end and at the end she needs to lean back more that will add more flare to the dance. Otherwise not bad for beginner.

El esfuerzo es grande, pero de verdad no tienen ese espiritu Mexicano como para representar un bailable folcklorico Mexicano. me dio hasta pena que lo pasaran en TED. La musica se manifiesta en el baile cuando se siente. y a estos chicos les falta muchisimo.

Awww I honestly expect something better.... I means it's okay but yea.... kinda disappointed...... :(

y la sonrisa...creo que le falto energia...hombre que los jarochos llevamos la musica x dentro...

PORQUE!!!! no les pusieron entarimado aquí es muy importante escuchar el zapateado que mal organizado

Appreciate the representation for Mexican culture good effort put in I know you might not be professionals might have learned it with a small amount of time and maybe it was your first time dancing

Thank you. Your ballet folkorico dances reminded me of the wonderful memories of watching my sister dance at tareadas, carnivals and at special events in East Los Angeles. She was instructed first by Estalita at La Talpa Church and then Antoinette, who had been Estatlita's student.

que pena para las verdaderas bailarinas del son jarocho. le falta bastante!!!

Have they even been taught professionally orrrrr?

đẹp quá luôn cực kì thích kiểu khiêu vũ này của Mexico

the way the chose the palest woman to represent “la morena” lollll

Ti Lingo, this girl has a beautiful smile!!

I love the effort to show or culture. But honestly I didn't see much effort put in to it! Where's the spirit! The loudness from your shoes! Se zapatea con fuerza! & the gritos? The smiles? & Veracruz the skirt needs to be cut shorter! It's not Jalisco I've been dancing for years since I was 5 & I feel offended just because their not representing our Mexico very well & the LACK of spirit.. in someway I feel like they make us Folklorico dancers look bad.

We need to build bridges and not barriers

La de Veracruz made me cringe 😭 sis asi no se baila.

That was so stupid for Veracruz yuh need to smile not be all serious

Como nos dice el profe de danza... PARECE QUE LE ESTAS PIDIENDO PERMIZO AL PISO PARA QUE NO LE DUELA SETIENE QUE ESQUCHAR EL ZAPATEADO... En mi opinion creo que le falta energia

they need more improvement in my opinion, but for the girl who smiled the whole time gave a nice stage present, but they just all need more work

MAGNIFICENT!!! Awesome Professional Ballet Floklorico Performers💖 You All Nailed Each Song👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Con tarima o sin tarima siempre deben tener entusiasmo y transmitirlo

alguien me puede desir como se llama el baile bueno la musica he bailaron ellos??

So I noticed there is a big difference in the music style from the first dance to the second one. For any folkloric dancers….is that just a different style? If so, what style is the second one (the dance with the white dress)?

My maestra would never let these people dance till they lose their puppet like dancing.😬

La Morena, nicely done, she needs to smile more at the audience and not pause so long between turns. She could really rock this dance!

Pero muy bonito todos

It was a good effort, but from the beginning you knew it wasn't going to be great because the guy's charro outfit had broken buttons down the side of both legs. It was very distracting, and it looks like he didn't want to be there. But I love seeing young people doing flocorico.

Hey I’m doing that dance for school ofenccive

classwerediana

I know the first dude has only been doing it a couple months at most bc i feel those late turns in my soul, hope this didnt discourage him though performing feels so good when you are proud but so empty when you wing it

Wow these people are hating like there is no tomorrow.

He visto varias veces videos del ballet folklorico de México y nada que ver, que sad!!!

Guys it looks like they only have 3 dancers they are trying their best

I would like to come to you in Mexico City and talk to you about the synchronized dances of Mexico and Georgia and if we agree, I want to invite you or with my team to come to Mexico and unite our culture and dances, thank you for your understanding and how can I contact you by phone or on the website❤️I really like Mexican dances, I would like to continue your culture in Russia and Georgia

y'all cut them some slack they're just college students who do this for fun

No debió soltar la punta de la falda al final TT_TT (1er baile) ... y a la segunda le falto sonreír, parecía que no disfrutaba bailar ... los pasos hermosos pero les falta fuerza en mi opinión :) ..

Pero que vergüenza, no puedo creerlo.....

getbacktomediana

The chirography is just bad.

Hola soy una chica de la ciudad de México y me gano VANESSA

There’s no Spirit

They should've chose a better music for this to throw in more spirit to the dance

Jajajajajajajajjaja

I am a folklorico dancer there is no enthusiasm in these performances

I’m confused ???? Why do they look dead while dancing and it just looks so odd, I think I could do better sorry not sorry
