About
Relámpago del Cielo Grupo Folklórico — Ballet Folklórico on N Main Street
Relámpago del Cielo teaches Ballet Folklórico — traditional Mexican folk dance — to Santa Ana's Latino community out of its 1010 N Main Street home. The group trains kids for annual performance showcases, giving dancers real stage time while preserving cultural traditions.
