About me: Tobas Dinastía was founded on March 25, 2006 in Falls Church, VA by Paola Rivera with the help of a group of young adults and their families, with the mission of promoting the Bolivian culture in the United States.
The dance “tobas” originates in the Chaco region of Bolivia. It represents the victory that results from hunts and battles. It is also known as the “jaguar dance.” This is a lively and acrobatic dance with energetic moves that require great body resistance. The attire consists of a skirt, poncho, feathered headdress, spear, and feather attachments on the wrist and ankles.
Based on tradition, the chief of a conquering tribe named Inca Yupanqui tried to subdue another indigenous tribe of the oriental region. Instead of succeeding, he encountered that this tribe resisted his power and upon victory performed an acrobatic dance consisting of high jumps and spears being flung in the air. Inca Yupanqui was so impressed by the show that he returned to his homeland adopting the moves and making them part of a ritual symbolizing the victory of a battle.
Tobas Dinastía is currently comprised of 60 dancers ranging from all ages and nationalities.
Who I'd like to meet: La Fraternidad Folklórica Tobas Dinastía fué fundada el 25 de marzo del 2006 en Falls Church, VA por Paola Rivera y un grupo de jóvenes apoyados por sus familias, con el propósito de difundir el Folklóre Boliviano mostrando una de las danzas tradicionales del Chaco Boliviano.
La danza de Los Tobas es una representación de la victoria de la guerra y la caza, conocida también como la danza del jaguar, se caracteriza por los movimientos enérgicos y saltos ágiles de mágica y maravillosa agilidad corporal, simbolizan ritos de sacrificio y veneración en honor de dioses ancestrales de los llanos y coraje para lograr libertad.
Según la tradición cuenta que las huestes Incarias al mando del Inca Tupac Yupanqui fracasaron en la conquista de la zona oriental, por la encornada resistencia de estas tribus, quienes los recibieron danzando acrobáticamente con saltos guerreros, muñidos de largas lanzas, con tal impresión volvió el Inca Yupanqui que la adoptó para el repertorio andino como una danza ceremonial de guerra.
En la actualidad cuenta con aproximadamente 60 bailarines entre niños y jóvenes de diferentes nacionalidades.
