OUR MISSION, VISION, & PHILOSOPHY
Calpulli Tonalehqueh is dedicated to nurturing healing through the reconnection, practice, and sharing of indigenous cultural identity, ancestral knowledge, and communal work—fostering harmony with nature for present and future generations.

OUR VALUES
Calpulli Tonalehqueh’s work is founded on ancestral principles that guide how we live, move, and serve our community. These values shape our ceremonies, teachings, and relationships.
WISDOM
We seek, preserve, and share indigenous knowledge and traditions passed down through generations. Wisdom is honored as living guidance—learned through practice, experience, and responsibility to community.
HARMONY
We strive for balance with self, Mother Earth, the creator, and one another. Harmony is cultivated through respect, intention, and walking in alignment with the natural world.
CULTURE
We walk the Red Road by practicing and uplifting native arts, cultural expressions, and an indigenous worldview. Culture is lived, shared, and sustained through ceremony, creativity, and collective memory.
TONALEHQUEH
THOSE WHO ACCOMPANY THE SUN ALONG IT'S JOURNEY
Tonalehqueh is a multilayered, metaphorical term. It refers to those who individually and collectively strive to meet their full potential on Earth, taking the characteristics of the sun as guiding principles for personal growth and existence.
Like the Sun itself, we seek to be resplendent, strong, steady, life-giving, balanced, humble, virtuous, and creative.
