In the development of our language interactives there has been a strong
collaboration between many Indigenous communities. We understand
that the preservation of our languages insures that the wisdom, traditions,
history and distinct identity of our people will continue on in the future.
Our language interactives have been designed to support long-term
culture and language revitalization programs that strive to build closer
relationships between the generations. This software supports everyday
proficiency naturally using authentic, culturally sensitive, illustrations and
Native speakers. First Nations’ families, elders, youth and children will be
immersed in their languages and culture through interactive activities that
will facilitate the transmission of basic language structures and language
fluency while building and encouraging proficiency in listening, speaking,
reading and writing skills.
Each language interactive contains the following:
Numbers, Money, Time, Alphabets, Pronunciations, Colors, Shapes,
Days, Months, Foods, Clothing, Household Objects, Weather, Seasons,
Directions and much more.

The Pimsleur Method
provides the most effective language-learning program ever developed. The
Pimsleur Method gives you quick command of Ojibwe structure without tedious drills. Learning to speak Ojibwe can actually be enjoyable and rewarding.
The key reason most people struggle with new languages is that they aren’t
given proper instruction, only bits and pieces of a language. Other language
programs sell only pieces -- dictionaries; grammar books and instructions; lists
of hundreds or thousands of words and definitions; audios containing useless drills. They leave it to you to assemble these pieces as you try to speak.
Pimsleur enables you to spend your time learning to speak the language rather
than just studying its parts.

When you were learning English, could you speak before you knew how to
conjugate verbs? Of course you could. That same learning process is what
Pimsleur replicates. Pimsleur presents the whole language as one integrated
piece so you can succeed.

One of the most recognizable elements of Native expression
is the powwow. Here, we explore the true meaning of
powwows, beyond the feathers and beads. Culture lives
within the people; it is expressed through those who
practice and participate in these celebrations. Native
Reflections proudly presents The Powwow Trail. This 11 part
DVD series allows you to be a part of the entire powwow
experience!
Episode 1 - The Drum
DVD-01
Episode 2 - The Songs
DVD-02
Powwows are nothing without the songs. They carry the
stories which in turn carry the culture. Some stories tell of
great exploits, acts of bravery, and even the simple pleasure
in life. The words themselves are secondary; for it is the
sound that is heard by the spirits of all living creatures. The
music possesses a mystical element within it, and is said to
touch the soul. It is this that the songs and the beat of the
drum appeal to.
Episode 3 - The Dances
DVD-03
Episode 4 - The Grand Entry
6
DVD-04
A powwow begins with the Grand Entry. The Eagle staff
leads the procession with a traditional flag made of feathers
from an eagle. Traditional dancers enter from the East,
following the Eagle Staff, then come the Fancy dancers, then
the Hoop dancers, followed by the Shawl dancers, and finally
the boys and girls. An Elder gives a prayer in the traditional
language, and then the powwow begins.
DVD-06
Episode 8 - Women
13
DVD-08
Old customs gave women a special role within the
powwow; the women would dance in one spot, stationary,
at the outer edge of the circle, holding an eagle fan, an
expression of their beauty and grace. The Jingle Dress
dance; an Ojibway dance form is also a healing ceremony.
The dance has since grown into one of the most popular
intertribal dance styles at powwows.
Episode 10 - The White Man’s Indian
There are those who embrace Indian culture. They come
from such places as the Czech Republic, Denmark, and
Germany. They put on their own powwows, having learned
the languages and dances from our people. It is an interesting
commentary on how Europeans in general are a culture,
DVD-10 meaning they seek out identities to latch onto, because
their own culture and spirituality leave more questions than
answers pertaining to existence.
Each dance tells a story with its own historical significance,
perhaps even the nation’s creation mythology. Within the
dances and songs, vital elements of Indian culture are
expressed and preserved: it was meant to be showy and
exhibitionist. The spirit of Native people is embodied in
dance.
Episode 5 - Grass Dance & Men’s Traditional
DVD-05
Episode 6 - Fancy Dance
This competition has always been the climax of the powwow.
It is a test of speed and endurance. It allows the dancer
to display his most intricate steps and body movement,
incorporating his own style. Knees pumping brought up high
to the chest, he exudes perfect rhythm, the best governs his
body, capturing the courageous thrusts of the battlefield, or
the humility of everyday life.
Everything begins with the drum. It is the heartbeat of our
people. Different drums exist for different purposes…for
healing, for ceremony. When we hear the drum in a lodge,
or across the plains, we know it is communion with the spirit
world. Hundreds of drum groups exist today. Each hold their
own drums, each has it own purpose. We will explore how
drum songs are distinguishable from one another, each with
different beats, and different meaning.
Religious in nature, The Grass Dance evolved from warrior
society dances. It is one of the oldest dances, and portrays a
warrior in search of a proper ceremony of past and present; it
is here where Indians honor their past. The best dancers are
able to tell a story through their body movements, capturing
the courageous thrusts of the battlefield, or the humility of
everyday life.
Episode 7 - Powwow Rock
DVD-07
Expressing themselves in the white man’s world, Indian
musicians have adapted their traditional music into a new
style, which has found its way into the mainstream. Several
Native artists have made their mark through the years blazing a trail for all of the new up-and-coming talented artists
who will be the international voice of Native Americans for
the future.
Episode 9 - The Grand Exhibition
As powwow has evolved, so too has the entertainment on
the grandest scale. Schemitzun, Connecticut attracts the
largest crowds, and the best dancers. We travel to the land
of the Pequots, a tribe attempting to recapture its heritage
DVD-09 through dollars generated through their casino. They pull out
all the stops to run a multi-million dollar powwow. As it was
told in the original legend of the Big Drum, the powwow was a
spectacle for all to see and behold.
Episode 11 - Powwow Fever
Anyone who has ever attended a powwow notices there is
something about the people who travel with the powwows;
sometimes on beat up old buses, sometimes the cars
themselves are held together with duct tape. There are
DVD-11 cars from hundreds of miles away, and as many as a dozen
people can pile out of an old Chevy.
