The return of Woodland style dance

An almost forgotten dance is making a comeback on the powwow trail. This weekend the Great Lakes Woodland style dance is one of many styles you’ll find at the Wáhkóhtowin Powwow on Treaty One territory in Winnipeg. Rosanna hears from Anishinaabe dancer Ryerson Whetung about the hopping style that is set to a very fast double beat, as well as the floral work and otter turbans that bring this style’s simple but stunning regalia to life.
