Beardance 2019

Lilja has a very strong connection with her Native American background . Luckily we both work at a tribe and Lilja has opportunities to join some traditions of theirs . The Bear dance is the dance of the spring . The women ( or girls) ask the men to dance and they can not refuse . Lilja has been doing this dance since she was 4 and her little assertiveness comes out !! She flicks her scarf and is not afraid to ask elder and even a man with a cast on !! What is amazing is that every year elder from the community have been gifting accessories Lilja For her outfit . This year it was moccasins ! They are beautiful !! Aran dances too and has been given a beautiful ribbon shirt from a friend of his. This year for X-mas we gave Aran his new hat and it looks pretty handsome on him .
