Grupo de Baile Mosaico Cultural

GB Mosaico Cultural is a group where we welcome everyone, different cultures, different backgrounds, and different ages from ages 4 all the way to adulthood. We try to teach dances from different places inMexico and hope to include different cultures. At the end of the day, this is the purpose. We participate and support all types of events and cultures. The students here will learn how to work in a team, since it’s vital for us. Teamwork is giving your 100% and serving others or those who need it the most. Not only was this group made for students to learn about the culture but forget about the everyday things that happen in life and have fun, we become a family! “Our mission is to educate and enhance the students in their culture and to learn to appreciate and value it. We want to create future leaders in their community; to be honest, respectful, empathetic as well as continue traditions for future generations
