Description
Authentic regalia, rhythmic drumming, skilled footwork: Experience the excitement of a Native American powwow! World champion fancy dancer Larry Yazzie of the Meskwaki Nation and the Native Pride Dancers perform music and movement celebrated by their American Indian cultures. Enjoy the beauty, athleticism, and majesty of the Fancy Dance in this performance featuring free-style movement, dance regalia, and traditional songs from the Northern Plains. Enhanced by indigenous vocal and flute music, Buffalo, Eagle, Round, and other dances celebrate various animals, crops, the sun, and the wind.
