Costa Maya Flyers: Danza de los Voladores




Have you ever wanted to see the Mazatlan Flyers, or another similar group while traveling around Central America, only to miss out? Here is your chance to see this spectacular aerial dance! With a history rooted deep in deep Mayan culture, these dances are extremely fun to watch, as the dancers hang upside down from only one rope while playing instruments or holding a pose, swinging in a circle. The Dance of the Flyers ceremony is performed to bring forth rain, but different ceremonies were performed in the past when needed or requested by royalty.



Thanks for watching! More to come soon!
