Valley dance group performs traditional Puerto Rican 'bomba'

Jorge Torres is the weekday afternoon meteorologist on ABC15.

The music from the Caribbean island of Puerto Rico is known worldwide, whether it be salsa or reggaeton.

Marangely Boyrie, the director of Orgullo Boricua AZ, says bomba is about releasing and letting go of whatever one is feeling at the moment, whether it's good or bad. Since 2005, the music that originated on the island has made its presence known in Arizona, which is when Orgullo Boricua AZ formed. Boyrie says they started the group to perform and represent their community.

"We had people come from California, Las Vegas, everywhere just to come and support us. It was dope," Boyrie laughingly said.
