- The Mexican Rodeo, or "Charreria" is cultural tradition that beautifully represents the history and heritage of Mexico. In this documentary short film, we take a look at the impact it has as it begins to make its way more and more into the United States.
As an Ecuadorian, I feel so much respect for Mexican culture.
I’ve always said it Mexicans and American country Men are so much alike that if politics and a language barrier weren’t a factor we’d be very close friends 🇲🇽🇺🇸
Mexicans taught Americans how to live in the Southwest. Before Texas was in the US, it was Mexico. Don’t forget.
Well yeah americans copied mexico
@@ricomartinez3771 and then the Texans ethnically cleansed the Mexicans from Texas.
The original cowboys were the Spanish who conquered North America, I humbly ask you to review their history and where their traditions come from.
@@dapvnacion what do you think makes a mexican!? Mexicans= Half Native American Half Spanish they are the true Cowboys of the West
The culture of the cowboy, has its origin, in the north of the territory of Mexico 🇲🇽 it is necessary to mention that the historical fund is in Chihuahua, Mexico, where the first cowboys emerged, as well as the first original cowboy hats.
Cowboy acquired his lifestyle, clothing and work, from the Mexican cowboys who lived in the territory of Texas, in those days, Texas was part of Mexico, before the annexation of the territory to the United States, the US-American Cowboy was born of work of the Mexican cowboys of northern Mexico, who taught it to the US-Americans, the historic US-American cowboy of the late nineteenth century emerged from the cowboy traditions of northern Mexico and became a figure of special importance and legend of US-American Folklore becoming a cultural icon.
Although the US-Americans do not admit it out of pride, the cowboy emerged with Mexican origins.
A lot of American Cowboys know the roots. They know the history
My Abuelito was a charro back in Jalisco Mexico I'd say in the early 1900s
Very cool!!
hidalgo, birthplace of the charreria
QUE PARTE DE JALISCO ?
This is way more interesting than an American-style rodeo. Next time I'm in North America, I'm going to take in a la charreria. The food looks better at a cherreria, too.
Look into classico de las Americas a event for cancer in October
Oh ya man I live in NC and my girlfriend is Mexican and introduced me to the charrería…. Way better. Definitely check it out next time you’re across the pond
Es un orgullo ser mexicano y mostrar al mundo lo que es que somos los mexicanos
Greetings from Taiwan.
I absolutely loved this documentary very fact based very accurate!! I have an Escaramuza (drill team) in Colorado and I didn’t even know some facts that were stated, so in a way you taught me about my tradition and what I’ve been doing for years!
Props to Pedro Torres for being very well educated on this, I think he was the right person for the job on explaining the Charreria. I’d absolutely love to have one of these documentaries be taken in Colorado definitely a life goal! Amazing video put together Matthew for you to have filmed, edited, and narrated. 1000/10
Thank you so much Jeny! That means a lot to me since it was a huge project to work on!
If you ever do come to a point where you need some video work done out in Colorado, just let me know! I’ve always wanted to visit Colorado 😃
Thanks again for the kind words. I’m glad you enjoyed the documentary!
Charros: The grandfather and father of vaqueros and cowboys.
The cowboys are from Mexico 🇲🇽🤠
si eran asstecas...son ESPANOLES todo, y PUNTO@@luisjimenezrivas8463
Charreria is the sport
Charreada is the event
Exacto
Love it!!! The mix of strength and elegance was moving.
I myself am a charro and i can say this is very accurate! good job man love to see it
Thanks so much!!
This was a great documentary! Congratulations.
Thanks!!
Killed it homie :) I loved the contrast between the men's a women's events and what this signified about the culture's admiration of these animals! Great job!
Thanks maaaiinnnnn!!!
'Admiration'-----------give me strength. Abuse of these animals is the reality.
Definitely a touchy subject. In my experience spending time with this particular group, I saw no abuse. Not saying it’s not out there. But these people were very loving and caring towards their animals.
@@MatthewWagnerFilms Look at the photo. The horse says it all. It is plain for all to see. The abuse is obvious.
@@gerrycoleman7290 Okay. Thanks for your concern.
La marcha de Zacatecas el segundo igno nacional Mexicano...arriba Zacatecas
HIMNO NACIONAL . NO IGNO
❤❤❤ 1830. Paniolo Mexicano los vaqueros (cowboy). They taught Hawaiians how to ranch 50 years before taxes Mexico allowed Texans land but they brought slaves and Mexico said no, and the confederacy tried to make Mexicanos slaves. Remember the Alamo.😊
Great job Matthew! I think you captured the beauty and essence of this sport perfectly!!!
Thanks so much!!
This is awesome. A great look into Mexican culture. Only criticism I have is maybe lowering the music a bit? Especially when the prayer was being said. Besides that, a great video
Thanks so much!!!
You see horses being abused and all you are concerned about is the volume of the music? Good grief.
It's good that they follow the tradition in the USA, but they don't have the level of charros in Mexico. Matthew Wagner should go to a national charro championship in Mexico, you'd be impressed.
muy cierto
the Mexican made the cowboy
This is GREAT !! my parents came from ranching way of life, I never knew this.
This was an excellent, awesome video. Very humbling and educational. Thank you!
Doodly-doo... this is wonderful. I've been filming local rodeo events in Georgia and my search for Charreria events near me led me to your video. Really wonderful stuff, I love the pacing and your music choices add a lot. I'd love to know where you work out of if possible - maybe chat about story telling and rodeo experiences as a film maker. Cheers... or olé I guess.
Thanks so much! I’m located in Michigan! When i shot that doc I lived in North Carolina at the time though. That’s cool! Are you producing promo content or is it more event coverage style shooting?
@@MatthewWagnerFilms Initially my only interest was in the clowns and bullfighters that keep the cowboys safe. I thought I'd 'sneak' in to get coverage but really just wanted to get enough footage to be able to show the guys so I could get an interview and gauge their interest.
And then I shot my first rodeo and was HOOKED. Good grief, they gave me a full access pass and I was close enough to those bulls going by that I could reach out and touch them. It's no exaggeration to say that my life changed in that moment.
To answer your question, right now I shoot the entire event and then produce a 2-3 minute highlight reel for each event (there's several on my channel). I've also used the footage to produce a music video for a little band I play in.
I still have plans to do the clown/bullfighter documentary, but right now I'm just enjoying the opportunity to saturate myself in rodeo action, culture, atmosphere. The people are really wonderful.
Sidebar, I talked to my friends at the local Mexican restaurant, and they've offered to get me into a local Mexican rodeo event some time soon. One may even come and serve as a translator for me. We'll see what happens.
My grampa was a cowboy and so proud of my roots
Really Nice
Well done👏
Awesome job . I learned something new . I never knew this existed.
Me neither till I started this project! Haha
If you meet a Mexican at a local feed store, ask if there are any charro events. When you go you just might find a good time and maybe a pretty señorita to dance with.
Very Impressive work. Your the real deal. Love the site.
Hey! Thank you so much!
Interesting!
Sounds right to me

Mexicans are Americans too they are from North America.
Great video. What camera did you film this on?
Thanks! Fujifilm xt3 and xt4
How can you say that the Charro brings the steer down “gently” when grabbing him by the tail and pulling him down? Are you serious?
Horsemen and horse women are the same the world over. It's a universal language
The cowboy 🐴 culture has its origin in northern Mexico 🇲🇽 the creators of this art were the Mexicans, (not the US-Americans) the modern Cowboy was born in the Mexican state of Chihuahua, then the Mexicans raised cattle in the current area of Texas, when it was Mexican 🇲🇽 territory, before the annexation to the United States , the lifestyle, work, clothing, dance, were immediately imitated by the US-Americans, after the annexation of the territory of Texas.
California also had skilled men on horseback, according to Richard Henry Dana, who wrote a book about that region in 1840 when it still belonged to Mexico. As described:
When they make long trips, they ride one horse until they get tired and grab another, go over the support and bridle and, after running off the animal, take a third and so on until the end of the trip. There are no better cowboys like the Mexicans in the world.
The American cowboy is base on the original vaqueros
This actually is a Mexican culture y’all copied it like everything else y’all steal . When you don have a culture you take and claim it sad , when you know who the original are 🇲🇽
Go be dumb elsewhere. This is clearly a tribute to Mexican heritage within the US. Mexicans who became Americans generations ago maintained their equestrian discipline and we're celebrating that here.
This is a documentary celebrating that culture. Yeah , copying and making things someone’s culture is going to happen when a new independent nation is formed and trying to expand. But you’re low iq and comprehension probably didn’t lead you out of 5th grade. I’ll wait until you can show your high school diploma before you leave another comment
does someone knows the title of the song playes 6.38 / 17.30?
It was a royalty free song from the TH-cam library! I can’t remember the name of it though :/
@@MatthewWagnerFilms For being a royalty free song it was a pretty good choice.
I wonder what did the first human felt when he Was riding a horse for the first time in history, what came over that person to think he could ride a horse
Are you all the team that went to Mexico to compete
I’m not sure! I made this documentary for Cavvietta Quarter Horse and Cattle Co. in Elm City, NC. They may have competed in Mexico, but I’m not sure!
@@MatthewWagnerFilms I just saw a vid of a crew from Colorado that went to Mexico
Where are you from
@@MatthewWagnerFilms but you’re sure that you did not huh
hola blondiee!
That song sounds very familiar: th-cam.com/video/z1ekWT1ucAc/w-d-xo.html
These ladies are good riders but heavy handed.
Interesting! Could you explain What do you mean?
I'm originally from so cal rs and I always stayed away from my own Culture because everyone seemed to be invald with gangs and drugs and away felt Embarrassed by that had know real idea how beautiful it really was
Poor horse.
I find this very cruel/: btw the girls look so beautiful on the horses
Si no le gusta Alv
These people have such a deep connection with their horses and take amazing care of them, even better than humans sometimes because that’s how they make their money. Horse riding has been around since the dawn of time
Are you kin to Bill Wagner
No I’m not! Not that I know of anyway! Haha
Que cancion tan fea
Qual cancion?
@@MatthewWagnerFilmsdon’t worry bro this dude a Latino not Mexican, your music selection was on point my friend
The most evil sport ever conceived.
Actually its bullfighting THAT was created by the SPANISH
Actually it's golf@@jaypay8954
