Hello! I'm Patricia Martinez, a dance instructor at Pachamama Peruvian Arts, and I am thrilled to share the highlights of our recent milestone celebration. On Friday, June 21, 2024, we marked 20 years of fostering Peruvian cultural heritage in the United States with a spectacular event showcasing the talents of our dedicated students. Here are a few photos and video of my students capturing the energy, grace, and joy of their performance:

Teaching Peruvian dance at Pachamama Peruvian Arts is a deeply fulfilling experience. Our school is more than just a place to learn dance; it's a vibrant community where traditions come alive, and cultural pride is nurtured. Over the past two decades, we have grown into a beacon for those wanting to connect with their roots, offering classes and workshops that celebrate the rich heritage of Ayacucho, Peru.

Each dance lesson is a journey through history and tradition. I take immense pride in seeing my students embrace the dances of their ancestors, understanding the stories behind each step, and expressing their cultural identity with passion and precision. Our 20th-anniversary celebration was a testament to their hard work and the enduring spirit of Peruvian dance.
