Dance has no age

I can hear the sound from the drums and guitars, when I’m standing in front of La Catedral de San Juan Bautista, in the center of Coyoacán. I’m waiting on my Body Isra, who I’m going to meet with this Sunday afternoon. Sunday is a family day here in Mexico so the square is full of people. Because of the size of Mexico D.F, is every part of the city different and it fills like going to a new city, when you see the different from Condesa, San Angel y Coyacán only by naming a few of the areas in Mexico D.F. As Isra is explaining me, is Coyacán actually a small city that was build outside Mexico D.F. which is the reason for the different architecture and style of the houses, but over time as Mexico D.F. has been growing, Coyacán has been a part of the City. Not only is Coyacán a relaxed aria to be in where you don’t have the felling of being in a city with 22 million others, is is also famous for being the location where Frida Kahlo had her home.

After seeing La Catedral de San Juan Bautista meets Isra and I with Nina, Celine and Johan. The atmosphere is good when we all are together and heading of to La Casa de Cultura, where different sculptures can be seen, in this quiet and peaceful area. As we are walking around are we not only trying Churros, which you can have with a lot of different creams, such as Tequila, chocolate, mango and many mores. We are going to the marked, from where you can find nearly everything form really tasty mangos to candy and restaurants, from where we are going to have our Lunch. A tree course menu with drinks for only 70 pesos.

Los Gringos

When I’m walking down the street with Nina, Celine and Johan, do everybody know, that we are not from Mexico just with looking at the colour of our hears. In front of us, can we here salsa music and the louder the music is becoming, the more people can we see. At the square are people dancing. It is Sunday, so there is a different free wipe around people. There is a circle of people around the dancers. We are taking a spot there so we can fill the music and the people dancing. Soddenly is an older man in the 80s crossing the square through the dancing people, he is having a stick in both his hands. He is looking focused and having the direction directly towards Celine, he want to dance, but not with everybody, he wants to dance with her!

Celine is first, not so sure that she wants to dance, but Isra is fast over to convince her, because this older man is famous on Youtube for his dance moves. And I can tell you, dance has no age, cause when he is giving his sticks to a man in the circle and starting to dance with Celine, you wouldn’t believe that he is in the 80s. After just some seconds dancing with Celine is the older man also inviting Nina up for a dance. The music has change from Salsa to Rock, so he is showing them some good dance moves and putting his fingers trough his hear so it looks like he has been running to fast this morning and got a lot of wind through his hear. For this movement, at this specific time, is this man showing my that Dance and life has no age, since there is more than 60 years in different from the age of him and Celine and Nina but he still rocks like he must have done in his 20’s.
