Netotiliztli, often known as the dance of celebration and worship, was a traditional dance practiced by the Mexica people. As a pre-Hispanic tradition, it was a spiritual dance, deeply associated with the worship of Aztec gods. Each movement had a connection to the four elements (water, fire, wind, and earth) and to the four cardinal points (North, South, East and West).
