Jingle dancing takes endurance. I am almost 42 and it is hard on my knees, but I continue and have passed it on to my girls. Acosia Red Elk is a beautiful dancer. I have seen her at Pow Wows and she always displays herself (and her dancing) with grace, dignity and honor. I have seen many comments in here criticizing dancers. Always easy to do from the sidelines. Everyone who entered that circle to dance did amazing.

I ain't no dancer but when I do ceremony WEYA songs and dances of my people you become energized and don't feel tired or winded. For all purposes you get in the zone and the power is coming from your core and whole being. It is a great feeling if you have truly experienced this. Who the hell needs drugs or alcohol just try them old Indian ways if ya want a real rush... HO!

Acosia Red Elk was great! Should have won but respect to all the ladies dancing. Amazing endurance!

Great respect to all the participants. You are a treasure.

Can't see well through my tears, this really opened my heart and cleared my head of the recent evils going on in the world. I thank you for this post, I had not opened it until tonight, saved many posts such as this for times of need.....Blessings to all.

I dance the way the drum leads my creation.... you dance the way u dance Redbird woman... if u even dance.... just saying.... I feel at peace out there... no arrogance at all.... critics... smh gotta love em. I'm a dancer and even I DONT have time to critisize the WY my fellow powwow people express themselves in that beautiful circle that we receive soo much good Energy from..... and gtfm or whoever u are, don't buy into people changing your mind for u... sounds like a follower to me.

Strong dancers they are, I wouldn't even handle 10 minutes of dancing!! Strong spirits.
