i have done this dance myslef. it is very hard. the footwork is complicated.like others have said it is not just twirling around! keep up the good works. keep our culture alive.
dancing is dancing. no matter how good ur at it or not. as long as she is dancing and having fun with it. its not competition all the time. just because you won so many comps doesnt mean ur better then others, dont let conceitedness get to your mind. it'll only make u more idiotic. she is an amazing dancer. and as long as she is dancing, then that is all that matters.
she did pretty good, also in fancy shawl its very hard to get some elaborate foot work cuz the beat is so fast. I have only seen a select few women fancy shawl dancers that have elaborate foot work. So props on going out there and doing your thing. Your awesome and also prop on doing this by yourself.
This girl is a great spiritual DANCER. I bet she made with a litle help of here mother here dress by her selfe. Along with the seaming she gets the spirit in to here dress and in to here DANCING wich is beautifull. And here conditution is super go and get far on your way girl.
She's and AMAZING Dancer. i agree keep it to yourself, ppl dont need ones RUDE oppinion. its not twirling. she has the guts to go up there ALONE, now would you do that? NO!!!. im a FAncy Shawl Dancer too. and i wan to go got GON in alb, nm but i cant.
All her moves are good.. youu know her steps. I'm in Jr's dancing && i dance in the Gatherings of Nations PowWow here in Alb. I live out here. If she put all of that in a routine it would look awesome:) All in all.. she's good:)
she's doing a great job. to me the ones that can't say anything nice keep it to urself. or don't say anything at all. every1 has there own way of dance remember that cause we are all different.
ok everybody who can do it better post a video and have people judge you, disrespecting a dancer is rude and you`re a disgrace to your family when you act like that. People just talk crap because this is the net, grow up.
nuh uh i've been dancin since i wuss lil and i know what a plume looks like shes wearin rockers with a dangly lil plume i meant a plume straight up in back. duh!
Fancy shawl dancing is suppose to express freedom in ones movement. I miss dancing, but seeing this girl try toooo hard.. kinda hurt. lol. Kudos for trying. Next time girly.. be free and have fun with your movements.. dont think about your next step.. just go with the flow and with the beat of the drum. Thats all i have to say.. Shes learning though. I have been dancing forever, so I really dont remember what I looked like when I started. LOL! I was a little punk back then. Keep it up girly.
If you think this is poor dancing, I really hope you're good and familiar with this style. It's one of the most difficult in my opinion. It's not just some twirling around like you might think it is. This girl did an AMAZING job, and you should respect her hard work and wonderful skills. Please, keep such opinions to yourself, until you actually realize that you'd like to change your mind.
@MiYaViMocoChang your right its hard but very fun i am a fancy shawl dancer my self and it took my like a year to do really good and know i got 2nd in halifax nova scotia membertou 400 pow wow, in teen fancy shawl category
lmfao.. she looks so hagard!! she's trying WAY too hard.. i thought the movements were supposed to be kind of.. i dunno.. liquid-like? if you get what i mean? lol.. but oh well, it's probably her style of dancing
she kinda looks like shes walking on air

Watch the video twice. Watch her foot work on the first view, and then watch all of her on the second view. It kinda blows the mind.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
She diid her best, i must giive her props. But som critique:
- her shawl looks like it was 4 me when i was a jr.girls division
- practice @ home & watch videos to learn more footwork but DONT COPY ANY1'S FOOTWORK!
- Don't try too hard
No offense, i am 12 & am in the teens division and can dance waaaaaaaaay better than u
