a freind of mine showed me some steps, then i started just watching others and also powwow videos... my first powwow that i danced jingle, i really sucked but i hung in there, and the girl that taught me some steps ... she ran out on the side step, i stayed in the circle and tortured myself .... :Chatter"When the forest weeps, the Anishinabe who listens will look back at the years.
