I am a women's traditional dancer...the trad. regalia here is a bit different from what I see is used in the US, some customs may also differ, I'm not too sure if that will make a difference in this case or not.
Yesterday I was gifted a dance stick, tipped with a redtail hawk claw and hawk feathers, I feel very honored by this but am unsure what to do with it. I've never seen women carry dance sticks, only men. Would it be right or wrong to use it when I dance? Nobody I've asked seems to know. Can't seem to find any info online searching either...I'm Cree if that makes any difference.
