Son is a name given to the variety of musical traditions both indigenous and mestiza. It is a couple dance, where zapateado can be included. The chanted parts of the son are very descriptive themes, witty and amorous, using the local language where local plants, animals and places are included. The majority of the dresses that I have seen have grapes, cock fights or the facade of the San Marcos' Garden and the ruffle has vines of grapes. Braids that cross in the back like swings are interwoven with ribbon with a bow on each side.
Men usually wear the charro outfit, which can be from the gala outfit to the caporal one.
The choreography has been for almost twenty years made up of two men and a woman, where the theme is that the woman flirts with the men, who end up in a cock fight and the victorious one keeps the woman.
