Cloud Dance “Waasaa”- Beginning Part 1

[@Hey_its_Koda]

One thing i love about New Mexico is that even though the outside world is changing faster. Our cultures and native traditions always stay with us. No matter what.

My Uncles (Garcia brothers) were the song writers for the pueblo. I finally had the honor of dancing and celebrating this beautiful day. Neh weh ohkeh weh.. neh weh bo pinge weh.. here in ohkeh in our village we're here.. ❤️

Are you referring to Peter and Cip? If so, you are blessed to be part of such a special family. I was a student living nearby in the 90s, and Peter and Cip spent many hours teaching me about the music of Ohkay Owingeh. I still have personal recordings of them singing and discussing the songs they made for the Cloud Dance, Turtle Dance, and even the Basket Dance, which they had not brought out in many years at that time. I can still recall Cloud Dance songs very similar to the ones in this beautiful video, but with slightly different words in a few places. I am happy to know that these dances continue to take place.

The dance represents the coming of Spring, and getting ready for planting.

What is the purpose of letting Native American traditions being shown to the rest of society. Everything is being lost and someday forgotten. Nothing is being respected no more. ☹️

[@finekindrecords]

We are losing so many important people in San Juan Pueblo and someday this will never happen because of my video. I have the highest respect for San Juan Pueblo. There are dances that I will never record, but for the one's that I can I will document for the next generation. Ohkay Owingeh is the home of the strong people and this is what this video represents.

[@carriescarbrough9869]

@@finekindrecordsI personally feel very blessed and great thankfulness that you recorded this and that I was able to witness it.. I truly felt the peace and calmness thru the respect and good vibes of this dance. Thank you, you gave me a wonderful experience. CAS

[@Jonathan-m8n]

Watch you both mouth mousse.

[@CraigAnderson-h2h]

It is a valid question. As a non native elder I can say this is true in American society in general. Machines and technology are more important than people....they have no customs, no traditions.

[@zatch8307]

Why are they wearing face masks still???
