Experience the Magic of Mexican Folk Dance
Bringing vibrant traditions to life through authentic performances and dance education in Riverside, California
Our Story
Riverside Folklorico isn't just a dance company; it's a family legacy and a community treasure. Founded by siblings John O'Donohue (12) and Olivia O'Donohue (9), our roots trace back to 1932 and our great grandmother, Maria Socorro Falcon (may she rest in peace).
While our website may look professional, we're not a big corporation. We're a family-owned enterprise that directly supports and engages with our community. John and Olivia are active members of Mitote Baile Folklorico at Gage Middle School and Alebrijes Ballet Folklorico.
Our reach extends to local schools, including efforts to establish programs at Poly High School and our existing presence at Canyon Springs High School. Through these connections, we're not just preserving tradition—we're nurturing the next generation of dancers and cultural ambassadors.
When you book Riverside Folklorico, you're not just getting performers; you're becoming part of our extended family and supporting a rich cultural legacy.
