"Tour of the traditional dances of the Valencian Community.

Ritual dances that have their roots in pagan celebrations and that were Christianized after the reconquest.
The Corpus Christi: the nobility and the bourgeoisie attended the processional parade, while the dances were performed by the townspeople. The dance teacher set the choreographies and recruited the dancers.
Dances in which all the participants dress the same, such as Els Porrots of Silla and Els Tornejants of Algemesí. Dances with different costumes such as Els Balls de moros of Sierra de Mariola or La Moma del Curpus (virtue), which differs from momos (sins). Dances in which the participants dress as their ancestors did, such as the Dansá of la Font de la Figuera or Els balls de plaça of Castellón."

The momos, each one has a sin and there are seven, and dressed in white the Moma has touched them one by one, to get evil out of them.
