Hoop Dancing Workshops The hoop
dance originates from the nations of the
southwestern United States. Traditionally
used as a medicine, with hoops made from
willow branches and primarily danced by
the men, this dance has since evolved and
changed to what it is today. The intent
and purpose remains the same: a
medicine to lift the spirits of the people
by honouring creation, through this
storytelling dance.
