Does Aztec Dancing Belong in Church?

HL writes: “Can you please help me with information about Aztec dancing and whether it’s a concern.

Aztec dancers, some very immodestly dressed, would dance during the offertory and incense the image of Our Lady. I don’t feel that it’s appropriate that they participate at our Mass and I spoke to my pastor about it.
