she started to quick and her shawl wasnt high enough... and her outfit isnt what judges are looking for... part of what is being judged is regalia.. but other then that she has some good footwork and shes fast =)
I have seen some welcoming ceremonies here in the states for foreing dignitaries and wonder why would we welcome them with red coats and not with the real American donces such as these, just think there should be more recognition for the arts that these nations have
yeah i agree with you all, i fricken get the goose bumps every time i watch this clip...she mastered the song with her foot work and dint forget her shawl..so many woman dont remember to do both.
Totally agree with you numutsu--the outfit doesn't make the dancer, the footwork does! People's outfits are so loud anymore, they look messy. This girl was tearin it up! I watch this with my little girl every now and then to give her encouragement (I'm a traditional dancer, she dances fancy). Thanks for posting this!
GezuzzPete... I been doing this dance all my life... never knew where it came from... I dance these steps to some comtemporary music, it just seems to flow out of me... and have been since I first began dancing... no one taught me... it must be in the genes... or as my grandmother used to say.. "the blood will tell"... lol I find this very curious.. I've never been to a powwow even...
whoa now... she tore some shyzz up... but in all honestly... I prolly wouldn't have watched her solely based on her outfit... sad I know... so no hate mail please... but thats the way it is nowadayz... but gawd she is purdy baddass dancer... howah!... *L*...
I like her style of dancing, she really is a good dancer, seen her last year at a pow-wow besides Tribes. She barely touches the ground! That's awesome!
Sometimes I wonder how people would place if they were all made to wear the same color outfit ... it would be totally based on skill and ability to dance, instead of how flashy the outfits are. Sometimes I think that that would totally change the winners ...
i dont think any native dancer needs a put down i think if they dancing ther repersenting us natives but thats not how it is these days today u gotta be a good dancer n think to highly of yorself n be apart of the tribla family in order to win thats how i c it am i wrong....
You're right. As with all things, nobody likes a 'put down'. Each and every dancer out there has their own unique style. These days, the competition is VERY competitive, so I (personally) don't think that dancers win just because of who they are or who they know. Basically, if Judges are honest, then everything should just come down to the dancers ability. Thanks for stopping by and leaving your comment.
well my last comment i did not mean that all dancers win because of who they r and who they know. just in personal experience there where a few powwows that was only picking family to win and i am not the first one to say this i hear this all the time so just to clear that up i do know that theres fair judges out there it was just a comments that i had at that time no harm done
ther all good dancers but i like the girl that has no design on her shawl u should kno shes the only one im old skool so shes 1st place to me keep it up.........
she's not in the video too much but does anyone know who the lady dancer in the black and yellow shawl and boots is? I know I've seen her before. I love her....
everybody has their own style when it comes to dancing; there's no need to call them down for it. my cousin's boyfriend added a lot of shoulder movements into his grassdancing, and that's his signature move, i'd say. everyone throws in something that's apart of them, so here's my rating: they all did great and i mean it
Hey thats good dancing! I also like how its a simple outfit too. Hey are familiar with the White cloud singers?I believe thats where there from is Bismark. They use to come down to Santee Nebraska for the pow-wow.
I've never heard of the White Cloud Singers. But, there is a group out Fort Berthold that go by the name of White Lodge. They travel extensively, maybe that is who you're talking about.
I LOOOOVE watching these @ the powwows!
