Native Dating

I'm not looking for anyone anymore, but I can empathize with some of you out there desperately looking for someone just right to fill that void. Your looking for someone who will understand your uniqueness, being Native (whatever tribe you belong too) has it's own special circumstances that make finding the right person to spend your life with a little challenging. There are very few dating websites that get it right, e-snag might be worth a try.

Try e-Snag!

Remember A photo is worth a thousand words, Use a good photo, get someone to take a good photo of yourself in several different clothes and settings, have someone help you if you don't know, and crop the pictures to make them more appealing. Write a nice profile about yourself, tell the truth about yourself, talk about the people in your life that are important. If you have children, are divorced or your faith is important to you, talk about it and don't hide. Its better to attract someone who learns your truths and likes you for your honesty than to attract someone on the pretense of a lie and then loose them when they find out the truth.

There is someone perfect for you out there, maybe you just haven't met them yet, and they haven't met you!

Try e-Snag!

Grass Dance Demonstration

My brother and I were recording various dance styles for a promo we were making, here is one angle of the Grass Dance Song we recorded. This is a song passed on to me from Jack Anquoe, a very well known Kiowa singer (Gray Horse Singers) a few years ago, he learned the song from a young composer he met at a pow wow in Hobbema Canada.

American Indian Census

The indigenous people, who lived in the regions of North America including the continental United States , and parts of Alaska , ages before the arrival of Christopher Columbus in 1492, are known as "American Indians." American Indians are also termed as the "Native Americans."

Indigenous population is found in the US and several inhabited insular regions, which are not part of the continental U.S, but the Inuit, Yupik Eskimos, and Aleuts are not always counted as "Native Americans."
