It is so beautiful. The music. The dance. The regalia. Stay strong.

I always love watching these events/contests. Love seeing heritage and traditions carried on to the next generations. All the dancers are so good that I could never be able to pick out one as a winner. They all are amazing.

Indians definitely created the shuffle. Awesome to see traditions still thriving.

I haven't danced this style in a few years, and I'm still impressed by the incredible talent and stamina of this style. Kinda makes me dust off my old regalia and shake the rust off.

WOW!!!!!!!!! Just... WOW!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you, from my heart.

Son hermosos nuestros rituales, me gustan mucho y gracias por compartir,,🙏🏻 saludos desde MÉXICO 🇲🇽😘🌹🌹🌹♥️

This was so wonderful. The dancing was spectacular and so many were sooo good. Beautiful!

❤ I Just enjoy this so much ! ❤ Thank you !

❤ RIGHT ON IVE NEVER SEEN THIS KIND OF DANCE BEFORE.. AND I ❤ IT !!!!!!!🙂

This is ABSOLUTELY beautiful!

I'm in awe of the dedication required to be any kind of indigenous dancer. One doesn't just learn the steps and the music, as in Western European ballet. It's so much more than that because it's inextricably part of a culture. Thank you for sharing this event from start to finish; my powwow experience is very light (been to one, lol), but I hope to increase it.

This is VERY beautiful! Thank you for posting it. But, as a White person, not understanding the customs, beliefs or ceremonies of the First Nations People, and wanting to understand, I would love to know what the dance represents, what it means, why and when it is/was performed, the significance of the costumes, etc. I think it important to understand all of this so we can understand each other and work together.

I’m not going to go super into detail because all tribes/nations have different teachings and traditions, but dancing started as medicine and ceremony and over the years became competitive and for showcase like this. Grass dance (what I was taught) was a very special honor, it was used to stomp the grass down for ceremony. Regalia and movements are meant to represent the grass waving. In the US we weren’t legally allowed to practice our traditional ways until 1979, so it’s become an even more special practice for us.

Love it. I have Cherokee in my smallest toe from gramp Soares 2:45 haha! My granddaughter is 1/4 Chippawa from Wisconsin. They must be out of breath,

I absolutely love PowWows. I am part Cherokee, but love any Native Americans dancing. These men ware just awesome with their nimble movements. The regalia, likewise, is just gorgeous. I certainly could not be a judge and choose a winner from any of these dancers. All of them are just wonderful. The Cherokee do not dance much differently from those at this Mandaree Celebration or Lakota. I almost had an opportunity several years ago while on Pine Ridge Indiana Reservation in South Dakota, home of the Ogala Lakota, to attend the last night of their PowWow. However, I could not attend. Thank you for this wonderful traditional video.

@@saylap.5392 Yes, I know about Rosebud. I have traveled and assisted a minimum of 4 schools on Pine Ridge Indian Reservation for about 14 years. Once the pandemic hit, however, I could not get on the Reservation that year. So, I just send boxes of school supplies, coats and sweaters for the children. I also adopted an Ogala Lakota Family.which means I send birthday gifts, special holidays, and Christmas along with food.

WOW MAN WOW !!! This is SO FANTASTIC. I am so intrigued by the culture, the history, the regal dressing the significance of each dance within each Nation. This is One of the NEATEST, COOLEST IMPRESSIVE BEAUTIFUL THINGS I'VE EVER SEEN!!! Sincerely. THANK YOU ❤️

Never seen a live performance, but what I have seen on video, I love it! So much excellent talent!

If you love the videos and you have a chance to see a live Pow-Wow, DO IT!!!!! It's an amazing experience; the electricity, the feeling of the drums and dancers through the ground, and in the air, it's a very emotional experience but one that is certainly worth the trip.

Powwow

I love this….thank you for posting….I’ve been to many of these events at the powwows and I love it all. I was welcomed into many families and even participated in many of the dances in my own Native American white doeskin ceremonial dress… I feel like I’m home…thank you for letting me be a part of it and welcoming me as part of your family and being my friends….👍❤️🐎 There is good in all cultures, but forgetting our heritage and the past is forgetting who we are and where we come from, leaving a void in our hearts and within ourselves.….an incomplete lost persona…..👍❤️🙏🏼😇🐎

The regalia they wear is all so intricate and beautiful...

Astonishing ❤ I love it!Greetings ❤️

I love seeing the interpretations of the same beat and step.

Very nice 😃 I enjoyed it all the way from fla .a part Cherokee grandmother . ❤️

That is outstanding love to see full dress dance so much meaning in them❤

Awesome !!

Very handsome braves Be proud of your Heritage!!!

Grass dance, and the men's Traditional dance, comes from my Tribe Umonhon of Nebraska. Originators.

It seems that a person would have to be in good shape to keep up with the extreme physical dancing. And the costumes are wonderful!

I'm Native American and love anything In music of the Native American Nations .

Love it!

I see why the Men and Women of the Indigenous Native American culture look and stay healthy 🤔 looking because their jumping up and down, a lot at the POW WOW !!!! to me in a way that's good excerise almost like aerobics. However, if your physically fit and your body can take and stand it well, may the Great spirit continue to bless you. 🙏 Godbless 😂❤😊

fantastic!

Espectacular❤

Very nice! Those clothes must have cost some money.

It's called regalia and they are made by the wearer, in this case, the grass dancer.

Wonderful!! Thanks for sharing.

If you learn how to dance this you can pretty much dance to the beat of mostly any song. The drum is so simply yet the source of the rhythm of any good song. 🦅

Beautiful!

Marvellous the tradition is being so well upheld

Slow down guys its not fancy dance. Work on leg strength and cardio.

Мы все так и танцевали и притавтывать траву разрешалось наверное редко так как мы дети земли природы а духи не прощают 😊😊😊

They all good ... but let's judge favorites and popular ones !

It's always been that way. The trick is to politic and get to know everyone, then you'll always place. It also teaches you to network, communicate, be a well-spoken person, and be a good way to stay out of trouble.

If I was a powwow committee, I'd probably just put everyone's name and number in a draw for that category. But for specials you can have judges and pick your ppl. You don't gotta be the best to bruise and win or lose. That's why you gotta prove ppl wrong and keep dancing you'll eventually know them ifyou keep going.

Je le répète :Superbes costumes, impression deforce, de puissance

my dancers are the besty

You guys should watch fancy dance

The Indians worshipped many facetsvof nature. Nature was pretty much one of their gods and they dsnce for their gods in appreciation.

Which song is the first? You want to join in when you hear that first dance...

It has a different meaning when your mom died 20 years ago but she went to an an Indian Boarding school...shilaqua (sp?). But she wiuld cry when westerns came on and the Indians were killed. Son died of fentanyl but my daughtér, Emma Snuggs, lives on...watchtch out... She's such a fighter. I love you Em...i never told you how much cuz i cant but i do grandma, granny, the Webbs... Oklahoma!!!

Made it there, just needed MOORE

Powwow feather 🐓🐔🦃😊

Lady stopped me dancing on the side of the road, off road a bit for safety of course, says I need to get into one of these. I didn't grow up with the luxury of family, but I am willing to try, I love the sound of this art, how would I get into one?
