- This DVD good examples of Pow Wow. And, it teaches the kids how to do simple pow wow steps in slow motion. I have the kids put their “bubbles” on and try both the men’s and women’s dance steps. They are harder than they look!
(I show the kids how well the drum players can play on the steady beat – all together – see Pow Wow Music link below.) Then we add steady beat to drums as we sing the next song. I like using the gathering drum I have – with about 6 students per drum.
