I choice it because

Why are what made you decide to dance the style you do? I did because my cousin helped me understand alot of the style. My dad danced some but mainly before I could walk then he gave it up. What's your reason?

Because, honestly, it was the most comfortable one to do. Being more relaxed, I felt I could show greater respect and honor to those that danced before me.

I know the feeling.

i was always drawn to jingle dancing. and i finally took it up once one of my elders told me i could after i worked with them, and came to understand the responsibility of it. :)

i do a couple of styles, women's nothern tradition and eastern blanket. i like the traditional because i am comfortable. i like the eastern blanket because i get to tell the phases of a woman's life.

I've always danced in the southern cloth categories. I danced fancy shawl at one point, but felt rather more comfortable dancing southern because I'm from the south.

Yes, you have seen me wearing various regalia. Some do not agree, but to each his own. I had decided to dance Northern Tradtional for several reasons: 1) Because I had been "told" that I should dance this before all others, and 2) I just love being able to get the fringe going:D There aint NOTHING else on earth like it:) Can't explain it, but I feel "at home" when I dance that style;)

Being the proud Ojibway....I dance Jingle. Not only that, but I have always been drawn to that style and saw myself in a dream dancing jingle.

choosing what you dance

I danced jingle when i was about 5 in my lil yellow poka dot jingle dress that my 3 year old cousin wears today and then i switched to fancy when i was 6 than i had to choose fancy or jingle! I chose jingle i had dreamt that i had a jingle dress!! :)

Because Granny B. said I must traditional dance when I was very young. I suppose because I'm her oldest grand-daughter.
