I love the bear song
This is fantastic...I needed to start with this technique.
Great Job Maddie!
Thank you for sharing this song. 🌻💚🙌🤗
What temperature should the water be? Does it need to start out warm or cold?
Assuming you are asking about the water used to soak the rawhide (at around 1:31 in the video)... The water should be room temperature. Rawhide, like leather, does not like to be too hot or too cold. Boiling water specifically is bad for rawhide.
Hola , me gustaría saber el significado de este rezo 🙏😊✨
love this song, one of our lodge leaders sings it now and again, I was wondering if you had the lyrics to the "Eagle" song by Red Shadow, I love that song as well but am having difficulty finding a good audio quality to listen to and learn
thank you for all the lessons
Just found your video , What kind of leather is it please ? Thank you
That song was nicely done by TheLonelyBearClub too! Check it out everyone!
Thank you for sharing,… As i recently see eagle and small kid in my dreams could someone guide me where in Ontario i can join some indigenous ceremonies?

Much appreciated A!!! I appreciate you mentioned skirts are not a strict requirement. I never thought that our 2 spirited people are being accommodated and every woman skirt or not. I like your ways.
We try to stress this as well when we hold regional Full Moon Ceremonies in our ads as well. Some people don't practice wearing skirts, some do. Regardless, all are welcome at our events.
You moved around so much, in and out of the frame, blurred. Couldn't really see what you were doing.
🎉❤🎉Thank you for your wisdom🙏🏾💖
Wow, this is amazing! Thank you for sharing.
21:27 In other weaving, the yarns you are holding in your hand would be the warp, and the single yarn you pass crosswise through the shed would be the weft.
Chi miigwech, I watched just to be sure I was already doing it well as I am just coming back to the teachings, I understood and knew all that was described except the cloths. Are we supposed to be making tobacco ties or what is it for?
Depending on your local traditions, the cloth can be used to make offerings such as tobacco ties or it can be used to wrap and protect your sacred items that you are feasting. We recommend bringing some semah (tobacco) to an elder to ask more about your local traditions.
Miigwetch/Maarsii for sharing these teachings and Henry! ❤
In the video, you mentioned a link to the pamphlet, however I can not find where it is located. Can you please provide me the link to the pamphlet and also where I can purchase the turtle kit? Thank you in advance!
Where can I purchase these medicine kits?
immeasurable thanks, such a wonderful remembrance of the spirit bear... 💖 many times in the past I have walked by the sides of many folks observing their antics.... has a boy often hide in (family) trees to learn and grow in wisdom, and sometimes has an old man sit by your fires... My Name(s) on a Beloved Isle AMATHAON, ARTUR, MYRDDYN Blacksmith, Warrior, Druid the Ploughman... Holiest of Knights... Celtic Bear King... (when sleep walking) King Artur (when awake) Duty, Honour, Perseverance... Keep your spear sharp, but your mind sharper... Measure not by length, but by loyalty & humility... Always & Forever the true PRINCE of WALES... Cymru Am Byth & KING of all BRITON'S... Cede Nullis just a small boy learning to be a good spirit guide, and hopefully one day become a "great" one like my Grand Father 🐻👑🐻
Thank you very much for these videos. More please ❤
Thank you so much. This is the way and the future
Thank you for sharing. Are these kits available to purchase?
They aren't currently available for purchase, but please stay tuned through ONWA social media channels, we will announce if they do become available.
@@onwa_official Thank you very much for your response! ;)
AMAZING! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and knowledge. I feel enlightened as I learned so very much from you. I hope there will be more videos like this to follow!
It's like a giant friendship bracelet!
When you go back two do you go through the beads
Yes, you go through the two beads. It helps fasten them better to the backing material.
i really liked this song and would like to learn it, i have recently made my first hand drum and am looking to learn something. are males allowed to sing this? not sure yet how that works, miigwetch!
Please do! Males are allowed to learn and play this song. Please be sure to visit our website, we have a drum book available that not only teaches you songs but also gives important teachings regarding each song: www.onwa.ca/drum-book

Lovely people of Ontario Native Women Association, I'm watching your videos from Scotland and I would like to express my gratitude on your amazing work bringing your lovely culture to the wide world ❤ Living creatures have their own songs and maybe if more people tried to understand the rhytms of others there wouldn't be so much hate and wars in the world.
That was lovely! ❤
