It has been many many years since I've danced and now my daughter is a fancy dancer. Well the other day she asked why jingle and traditional dancers don't dance backwards and fancy shawlers do. I told her what I was told, that in life we do not go backwards only straight with zig zags here and there. She then asked why it is ok for fancy shawlers to do it. I could use some insight into this before I tell her something the will stay in her heart forever about her style. Mii gwetch Share Share this post on Digg Del.icio.us Technorati Twitter

PowWows.com is an online resource for Native Americans to stay in touch with each other and their roots, and for anyone to learn about Native American culture. Pow Wows are gatherings that bring together descendants of Native American Indians who have scattered all over North America, with extant Native American tribes, in celebrations that feature Native American music, dancing, and ancient, meaningful rituals. Those who are not descended from Native Americans are more than welcome to attend and watch, and even participate, given that they respect and follow the established rules and traditions of the Pow Wow. Visit PowWows.com to explore the many aspects of Native American culture, from Native American history to Native American art and music. Young Native American descendants, whether tribe members or not, can access information about available educational opportunities, including Native American scholarships to colleges and universities. Thank you for visiting PowWows.com!
