Métis Jigging and Culture Awareness

Introduction of the basic Métis Jigging step along with four or five fancy steps intertwined with Métis culture awareness.
At the end of the workshop the participants will be able to say they danced the Red River Jig, are more knowledgeable of Métis culture, and have reflected on comparisons of their own and other cultural ways.

Dear Donna,
Thank you so much for joining us today and sharing your knowledge of Métis culture. Dancing together was a joy, and the entire workshop was incredibly meaningful. Your personal story and resilience were truly inspiring to the whole group.
I would also love to post a group photo, and perhaps a solo picture of you, on the program’s Facebook page. Please let me know if you are not comfortable with that!
Thank you again, and have a wonderful rest of your day.
Warmly,
Niki
