He has passed away. Please offer your prayers today for the family of Nakotah LaRance. Nakotah was a world hoop dance champion, and instructor to many children. Nakotah was such a kind and generous soul and will be missed by the world. If you'd like to support financially, donations can be made to the Lightning Boy Foundation where Nakotah mentored many youth dancers. I will link the foundation in the comments below. Thank you.

Nakotah LaRance (rip) Gone too soon..July 12, 2020...

There is the Lakotah, the Dakotah, and the Nakotah. Fascinating that his name is Nakota. The Nakotah tribe is of the greater Sioux nation.

The purpose of living is to be the embodiment of love in all its forms through the cosmic dance. Nakotah & other Family members are the cosmic dance in all it's beautiful healing. Thank you so much for sharing. I also feel Nakotah's Hip hop hoop dances bring world Families together.

Oh my God, he must have been so special, God took him to sit by his right side.

We are all so very blessed because of his incredible dancing. What a guy ! Bursting heart up high.

You are a great teacher! Have been sawing for a few years. Learned A LOT from this video. I did run my finger over a saw blade upside down in the saw - once. As you said, you won’t do it again. Fortunately, it was a painful lesson so i have not done it ever again. Thanks for the reminder to relax and enjoy the process!

So amazing it makes me think of a world wind butterflies in the Eagles and the Beautiful Earth
