Juaquin Lonelodge is back with a brand new edition of Making Regalia. In this episode he talks about the history of the dance stick and how you can construct your own.
I dreamed last night that I am awake but many others are lying asleep in a hall or meeting/workshop space, dreaming. The dreamers are following native traditions. In their dream they are dancing, with two sticks , one red one blue, held vertically. Some of the native people are moving in their sleep as they dance. It is taking place in the west somewhere but I mention ‘New England’ for some reason. The unspoken reply is that the place I am referring to is much older than England! When I wake I can still feel the energy, the drum rhythm etc.
Does anyone know of such a dance?

How long are the dance sticks?

Here I am 76 years old, and I find out that I was stolen illegally from my people. But, I never lost my soul. My crafts and art.
