Native American Dance Native American dance is unlike most other dances in the world. It is not only a way to have fun, but spiritual in itself. Dance can be a form of prayer, a way of expressing joy or grief, and a method of becoming closer with man and nature. Native dancing has been aroud just about as long as the Native American people have been: in ceremony, powwows, and just to pass the day/night. The dance also can have healing powers, not only on the dancer, but on people that the dancer is close to, or dancing for. Native American dance is centered around the drum. It beats in time with the heart of Mother Earth and provides a base for the song. The drum beat is, as in most dances, the key to Native footwork.

It is also thought that First Americans migrated from Siberia over the Bering Strait about 14,000 years ago, or perhaps even earlier. The land bridge was dry ground for several thousand years before the sea level rose again and stopped migration. The hunters would have followed the migrating herds of large mammals as they moved south. As the glaciers melted, the First Americans spread to the North American coasts and across the entire continent. Native Americans adapted to the climates and terrains in which they lived and used whatever natural resources were available. The arrival of the Europeans in the 1500's began a change in the lives of the Indian people that continued through the next centuries. Sometimes the changes were good. The horses brought by the Spanish made bison hunting much easier and safer. But Vikings, Spanish, English and French explorers, colonists and missionaries spread diseases, made slaves of the people, forced relocations, claimed ownership of natural resources and land, and tried to stamp out the native cultures. Some of the Indian people survived, but not without making drastic changes in their life styles.

7. Sacred Tree Dance: Native American Ceremonies: II Native American Indian Healing Ceremonies Sacred Tree Dance Ceremony.The Grandmothers sit under the Sacred Tree, holding their empty http://www.healing-arts.org/spider/sacredtree2.htm

The Grandmothers sit under the Sacred Tree, holding their empty baskets and calling their grandchildren to remember the dance of life. As part of MotherEarth's transition into the Fifth World, the Two-Leggeds are being reminded to remember their family and honor the dream of wholeness. The song of the Grandmothers calls us all to return to the Sacred Tree every cycle, to bring our gifts to nourish the web of life and to dance the Fifth World rhythm that creates harmony. This ceremony was given to us by the Grandmother Spirits so that the dance of the sacred tree could begin again. The dance can be organized by anyone and done in any location where a tree is available. All people of any age are invited to attend. Although everyone shares in the leadership of the dance, it may be helpful to have a facilitator familiar with the dance format so that things flow smoothly. The dance of the sacred tree is a ceremony of give-away. Every participant is asked to prepare three give-aways for the ceremony: An intention for dedicating the energy of the dance A representation of a favorite relation in the web of life A give-away of something special for the Sacred Tree Since this is also a celebration of nourishing the Sacred Tree, it is appropriate for everyone to contribute towards a feast that can be shared by all after the dancing is completed.

Cosmogony and the Winter Dance: Native American Ethics in Transition John A. Grim (Bucknell University) Two distinct, complementary ethical elements, an ethics of giving and an ethics of empathy, find expression in the world renewal ceremonial of the Winter Dance among the Kettle Falls people. Both elements derive from the cosmogony of these indigenous people who live along the Columbia River in Washington. The ethics of giving is investigated in terms of sacred power ( sumix ) and the giveaway; the ethics of empathy is studied in terms of guardian-spirit songs and spirit sickness. This paper shows that the community norms established in the ethics of giving serve to prepare individuals for those spiritual encounters that engender the ethics of empathy; thus, the two elements together constitute a synthetic ethics: a unified developmental system of complementary elements in which worldview is related to subsistence practices and individual maturity is integrated with community moral identity.

Native American Dance Native American ("First Nation," or "First People") dance is a very special art. Many dances are performed for family events, such as weddings and birthdays. Some dances are performed for fun, others to help the harvest, and some for religious ceremonies. Here are some examples of the dances in various regions of North America. The Arctic peoples (Alaska and Canada) have many dance songs included in their ceremonies. The best known dance song for western Arctic peoples is drum dancing. It is usually performed at a festival honoring deceased relatives. People from neighboring towns are invited. Dancers wear costumes and masks, and the hosts give gifts to the guests. When it is time to dance, many drummers stand or sit in a half circle and sing and play their drums. Men and women dance in a half circle in front of them to the music, using their arms and upper bodies to show their feelings. The Great Basin people (from a region including Nevada and parts of Utah, Oregon, and California), including the Utes, Shoshones, and Paiutes enjoy a dance called the Bear Dance. The Bear Dance is performed to ask for enough food for everyone. Another Great Basin dance is the Sun Dance, which focuses on the importance of the sun. The Native Americans of the Plains (from Wyoming to Minnesota and the Canadian province of Saskatchewan to Texas), including the Blackfoot, Lakota, and Crow, are well known for their powwow dances. Powwows were first danced in the 1800s, and are still done today. Powwow dances can be held for fun. They can also serve as family or tribal reunions. The dances are usually performed in a certain order. They start with a Grand Entry. Then there is a Flag Song, which is similar to singing the United States national anthem before a baseball game. There can be as many as eight more dances. Sometimes non-Native Americans are invited to join in a powwow dance. There are very special rules that must be followed if you are invited to join a powwow dance.

The class is titled Native American Dance, and will teach non-native students how to traditional and fancy dance. The dance instructor who will be teaching the class is a non-native woman that knows next to nothing of Native American culture. She recently attended a performance by the Native American Dance Theater. In one of the segments of this performance, a young Native man is taught how to dance by another Native. The dance instructor was inspired by this, and decided to offer a class next fall teaching other students to dance.
