About

The modern Pow Wow is a gathering, a social occasion, and a time for Indian peoples to come together to sing and dance, and to honor the heritage that has been passed down to them from their ancestors.

Modern Pow Wow dancing is an entity unto itself. The different styles are derived from traditional dances of the various tribes (each tribe has their own origin legends), but the individual dances are not specific to any one tribe - though they are often associated with a particular geographical area.

The dances fall into three basic configurations" the Grand Entry, Intertribal Dances and Contests.
