This embroidered hoodie is inspired by the work of Mario Edward Aguilar, Ph.D., Capitan de Mexi’cayotl Danza Azteca in San Diego, who has dedicated his life to teaching and preserving the traditions of Danza. His thesis The Rituals of Kindness: The Influence of the Danza Azteca Tradition of Central Mexico on Chicano-Mexcoehuani Identity and Sacred Space reminds us how Danza not only connects us to our ancient Mesoamerican roots but also helps Chicano and Mexcoehuani communities in the U.S. nurture identity, resilience, and sacred space. As both a Danzante and designer, I felt inspired to weave this simple yet beautiful sentiment into this design that speaks to our practice.
The design centers on three elements that carry deep meaning in ceremony: Cantar, Flor, y Danza. Each is a reminder that our voices, offerings, and movement are acts of kindness that weave us into community and connect us with those who came before us. Just as Danza continues to grow and adapt wherever it is practiced, this piece is meant to carry that spirit into daily life.
This hoodie is more than clothing — it’s a way to hold close and share the teachings that canto, flor, y Danza are sacred offerings, guiding us to walk in balance and kindness every day.
Embroidery thread colors: thread colors are selected to harmonize with the color of each hoodie. Note: Black and Sport Grey hoodie both have grey thread.
