Join Amanda Fox at KFPL for a powwow dance session! Bring some comfy shoes and start celebrating Indigenous History Month on the right foot!

A powwow is a gathering to celebrate First Nations culture through dance, songs, food and crafts, and is open to all. This 30-minute high-intensity workout will incorporate powwow dance steps from different styles of powwow dance and the sounds of contemporary and traditional powwow music into a simple, follow-along workout.

 

Amanda Fox is Ojibwe from Wiikwemkoong Unceded Territory on Manitoulin Island, and is based in Ottawa, Ontario. Amanda is a jingle dress dancer, singer, drummer, beadwork artist, sewing artist, powwow workout instructor, and workshop facilitator. She started offering powwow workouts as a way to share her culture while promoting physical health. 

Please register for only one of the two sessions offered on Jun 3.

This event is generously supported by the Friends of the Library.
