Raven Sutherland Jingle dress dance

The jingle dress dance comes from the Ojibwe people in Ontario and is known to be a healing dance. As Indigenous people, we believe in the healing of this medicine.
I was called to the jingle dress dance at a very young age and have now been a jingle dancer for over 10 years. For me, dancing means healing, love, and the honour of carrying on such an important gift given to us by the Creator.

    Chi-Miigwech for sharing! Not sure people will realise the, actual, weight of these Jingle Dresses and the stamina it takes to dance these intricate steps, so delightfully, wonderfully and expressively. A highly commendable credit to her Nation.

    @@ianmelonie6440 My comment was a generalisation. Interesting that you have helped to make a Jingle Dress, for a friend of yours and as a consequence, are aware of the weight of them and the physical effort it would take to dance so elegantly when wearing regalia of this style. Thank you for your contribution.

    I only have three photographs of my Shawnee grandmother Wa-apa-tee-wis ("White Feather"). She was born in a tipe village near Old Shawneetown, Illinois, about 1884, and died of pneumonia in 1929 in Indianapolis at the age of about 44. Pity I never knew her, my father's mother First photo was her high school graduation portrait, taken in 1902, hand color tinted, and she was made up to look like a white woman. She hated it. Then, a photo of her in sepiatone taken at the Marion County Fair in Indianapolis in 1916, where she was dancing under a tree in a pretty buckskin dress with a few shells on it, holding a tambourine. The last photo I have of her was taken at her wedding to my grandfather, James Harrison Long (1886-1963) in 1917, also sepiatone, showing her in a wedding dress she made herself, of indigenous styles and materials. My father lovingly wrote "Mother" across the top of the photo. I did, however, know her real biological brother, Russell Running Horse, aka: Russell Morgan Fleetwood (1886-1976) who lived in Indianapolis from 1920 to his passing. I met him in 1959 on a family reunion trip there from Los Angeles with my Dad, at age 12, and I spent the day with my great uncle Russell, who told me stories of our Shawnee heritage, and he gave me the name Wapahilo ("Soaring Eagle") which I proudly display at Pow-Wows. I love to participate in the Round Dance, the Sacred Circle of our People, and enjoy watching the dancers in all their finery.
