Men’s chicken dance special by the Eya and Ava Fox family on the Facebook Quarantine Dance Special. The page is a space where Native powwow dancers can connect and still dance during the pandemic.
The special was in honor of their new daughter and the contest was for fathers only.
My son Joe Upham, a single dad, and military veteran, entered the contest on September 2. Location is the Flathead reservation.

And this is called tradition that the west is slowly losing, this is a pure treasure of the human soul

Since I was a little girl I have always been enthralled with chicken dancers. My Mom would spot one at a powwow and she would say "hey look Phoebe there's your chicken Dancer!! ❤

I miss going to the Pow Wow's held down in Pawhuska Oklahoma. My ex wife is Osage. Both her brothers were fancy dancers. Please keep native american cultures strong... 🙏🙌🙏🙌🙏🙌

Great to see a true chicken dancer. Too many times you will see a dancer using traditional or grass dance movements for the chicken dance. Loved it.

THIS is culture! Only seeing it is nothing 😮 as who is preparing and in with the real nature is entitled to gain spiritual experience by this Shamans dance whose purpose isn’t known by me by the way 😮 A perfect wonderful footage!

Thank you for the compliment. But the rest of it I’m not sure what you mean. And this dance is not a shamans dance. We don’t use that word in our culture either. This is an old style prairie chicken dance. There’s a story that goes with this dance but I’m not the one to tell it. I’ll share a link of one our elders telling it, if I find it.

@@lailani7617 😎 that would be nice. The identification by and usage of creatures of nature is shamans work; if the word disturbs you take the wider meaning 😮 Such an explanatory link would be great. I’m German and only the idea to dress oneself so to dance outside in streets or parks of Berlin 🤔 is somehow strange (but surely not impossible), as chicken as everyone knows come from BurgerKing et al. 😮 And the last Indians dance I’ve seen here is this one 😮 America as is our reality 😮 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iNhon82DzMmufoE.html
